Tommy McLean made history as a player and a manager, but behind the
triumph is an untold story. As one-third of Scottish football's
best-known team of brothers, McLean sampled the incredible highs.
He became a Rangers legend as an integral part of the European Cup
Winners' Cup-winning team in 1972 and as a mainstay of Jock
Wallace's treble-winning heroes in the years that followed. As a
manager he took Motherwell from the brink of bankruptcy to victory
in the Scottish Cup final and European football. That memorable
triumph is however tinged with pain for McLean, who faced his
brother Jim's Dundee United in the cup final just days after the
death of their father. And there was further personal turmoil
behind the scenes during that momentous game, a story McLean
reflects on publicly for the first time. The years that followed
have been filled with further joys and sorrows, including a
tumultuous spell in charge of Hearts, a controversial six-day spell
as manager of Raith Rovers, and a time as manager of Dundee United
under the chairmanship of his older brother, Jim. He was also
recruited by David Murray to head up Rangers' youth system, but
stepped away from football to concentrate on more important family
matters. Here in his exclusive book, Tommy McLean tells all, making
Football in the Blood a must-read for any football fan.
