Scotland 101: An Introduction to the National Team
English
By (author): Tom Brogan
Scotland 101 captures a flavour of all aspects of supporting Scotland, exploring the good and the bad, the highs and the lows, the joy and the sorrow.
There are days Scotland fans will remember forever and days theyd rather forget from Archie Gemmills dribble around the Dutch in 1978 to Gary McAllisters penalty miss in 1996. Theres the 9-3 defeat to England in 1961, but theres also Jim Baxter taking the mickey out of them in 1967; Jimmy Cowans heroics at Wembley in 1949 and Estonias no-show in Tallinn in 1996.
Sometimes were not even sure if an event was good or bad, like Tommy Gemmell kicking Haller up the backside or the Tartan Army invading Wembley and breaking the crossbar. Theres hope and expectation. But theres also despair and disaster.
Scotland 101 is your guide to those moments that make following Scotland an adventure like no other.
