About this deal

Perhaps it was the "away days" that were the best of all and all those scenes of triumph and disaster, joy and despair - are here.

Some subtler changes are displayed, such as the difference in police helmets between Scotland and England in the chapter relating to Berwick Rangers. Also contains anecdotes and quirks gathered from fans, club historians and newspaper articles of decades past. Also contains anecdotes and quirks gathered from fans, club historians and newspaper articles of decades past. Ideally, I’d like pix of the ground’s terraces and stands empty, or on-pitch action with a good, illustrative view of terraces in the background. Steve also looks at grounds that no longer exist as football venues, such as Third Lanark’s Cathkin Park, Clyde’s Shawfield Park, and Falkirk’s Brockville!The images are significant for what they show in terms of players and fans but also what is not on display. The aim is to celebrate the experiences of standing in a swaying, tight-packed, excited/angry/celebrating/commiserating/local-derby-fevered football crowd.

There are also chapters focusing on aspects of football grounds that have been forgotten - dugouts, segregation divides and more. On first seeing this book, I worried that it might be another homage to the “golden age” of Scottish football, where everything, invariably, was so much better than it is now. A collection of hundreds of previously unseen photos of classic Scotland international football games.Most purchases from business sellers are protected by the Consumer Contract Regulations 2013 which give you the right to cancel the purchase within 14 days after the day you receive the item.
