Stig wasn't bad, he was average. And you're right Squirrel, Eric was a bit of a nut case who hounded scum defenders like a mad man on the loose. here's a cracking section of an article that describes the man better than I ever could
"Another time he closed down a full back, who played the ball back to his keeper. So Erik chased down the keeper, who played it over to the full back on the far side. So Erik chased him too, and eventually got across there and blocked his attempted clearance and knocked the ball out for a throw. He then leapt to his feet, fist pumping and yelling ‘Come on!!!’ to the handful of die hards stood freezing on the touchline"
he also on more than one occasion went out and got smashed with the fans, sometimes wearing his own match top. he'll always be a legend to me
