Scotland - Glory, Tears & Souvenirs is an offbeat collection of
memories, mementos, rants and aspirations relating to Scotland's
national football team. A 'look back in hunger' on the post-war
era, with emphasis on the 1970s to date. A reminder of the way
football was, the way it is now and the way we'd like it to be!
There's Switzerland 54, Denis Law, trading cards, match programmes,
Archie Gemmill, Argentina 78, beermats, Kenny Dalglish, vinyl
records, Spain 82, Ally McCoist, the Tartan Army, Italia 90, the
Kirin Cup, Jimmy Hill, France 98, Panini stickers and James
McFadden. Nostalgia and a warped sense of humour are what gets
Scotland supporters through in a nightmare world where all our
near-neighbours now get to 'go to the ball' - France 2016, at least
- while we await the arrival of a Fairy Godmother and a defence
that doesn't leak goals. There's no room for wallowing in
self-pity, though. Read this therapeutic comfort blanket of a book,
cheer at the good bits and laugh at the bad. We shall overcome...
