Anyone remember this lad?
Apparently he was with Otelul Galati when they beat Juve in the 1988/89 UEFA Cup (lost 5-0 in the second leg though) and subsequently played for Limerick. He still lives there - he's a journalist, and his daughter was involved in a visa controversy a year or two ago according to a google search.
He won one of the sections at the Bunratty Chess Festival at the weekend and I heard about his exploits. Anyone know anything else?
There's a grainy photo here (at the bottom) (http://members.aol.com/bunrattychess/report.html) to jog some memories!
