Former Glories and New Beginnings: Aberdeen FC, 2022-23
English
By (author): Nick Brown
Former Glories and New Beginnings takes us on a nostalgia-filled journey through Aberdeen FCs glory years, while looking ahead to a promising future.
The mere mention of the word Gothenburg to older Dons fans instantly conjures memories of European nights under the floodlights, of Simpson and Strachan, McLeish and Miller, of Munich and Madrid. Mention Gothenburg to younger fans and they know it is a story etched in the annals of Scottish football.
This book recreates not just one magical European trophy-winning night in May 1983, but the clubs trophy-laden golden era of the late 1970s to mid-80s. The moment a young manager called Alex Ferguson arrived, the balance of power began to shift. Only the best win championships, only the best win trophies at home and abroad.
Forty years on, Aberdeen has been away from the top table for too long. Under the stewardship of Dave Cormack, the club is entering a new era, giving fans high hopes for the future.
