Aberdeen have competed on the European stage since season 1967/68 and have enjoyed some epic encounters along the way, culminating in the club's greatest ever victory - beating Real Madrid 2-1 in the 1983 Cup Winner's Cup final. Ally Begg charts a path through Aberdeen's storied history in Europe, vividly brining to life the most interesting, exciting, and unforgettable games by interviewing players from Aberdeen and their rivals and augmenting them with his own richly rendered memories. Aberdeen European Nights takes the reader on a nostalgic romp around the continent, crossing beyond the Iron Curtain and building a fortress at home at Pittodrie. Humorous, quirky and insightful, it is the perfect book for Aberdeen fans, young and old. Ally Begg has worked in sports broadcasting for more than twenty years, hosting Manchester United TV, Celtic TV, Sky Sports News, Sky News, talkSport Radio, Setanta Sports, ESPN Star Sports and, more recently, beIN Sports in Qatar. He now works for Consilium Sports Group and is based in Germany.
