Scotland boasts a football history peppered with great wins, bizarre events, unforgettable matches, underdog stories, cult players and off-field intrigue. 99 Iconic Moments in Scottish Football is a fascinating showcase of the most memorable tales. Read about when Scotland trounced world champions England 3-2 at Wembley in 1967, crazy goal-fests (including Stirling Albion’s 20-0 win), Dundee United's four back-to-back victories over Barcelona, Berwick Rangers knocking Rangers out of the Scottish Cup and Partick Thistle thrashing Celtic in the League Cup Final. There are also bizarre events aplenty, such as Motherwell winning a special version of the Copa del Rey, East Stirling and Clydebank briefly merging, Aberdeen almost winning a US tournament as the ‘Washington Whips’, Gazza booking a referee and Claudio Caniggia signing for Dundee. The stories stretch from the 1800s through to the present day, and range from internationally acclaimed achievements to intriguing little-known tales from clubs of all sizes.
Dundee United On This Day brings to life the most glorious, weird and wonderful moments from the club's history in one irresistible page-turning diary. Formerly Dundee Hibs, very nearly called Dundee City and twice known (when playing in the US) as Dallas Tornado, Dundee United is a club with a colourful past. Within these pages are big derby wins, relegation battles, victories over Barcelona and other top European clubs, a dramatic league title win, cup heartache and eventual cup glory, canine pitch invaders, infamous disallowed goals and much more. Revisit the exploits of club greats like Finn Dossing, Hamish McAlpine, Paul Sturrock, Dave Narey, Mixu Paatelainen and Andy Robertson, and celebrate the successes of legendary managers Jerry Kerr and Jim McLean. You'll enjoy a wealth of evocative and sometimes bizarre anecdotes, enthralling match reports and tales of well-known and less-known figures from 1909 to the present day. With a treasure trove of club history, trivia and facts, this book is a 'must' for Dundee United fans.
