Former Rangers, Celtic, Spurs and Scotland midfielder Alfie Conn lifts the lid on his playing career with both Old Firm rivals and his time as 'King of White Hart Lane'.

When he started at Rangers, Alfie was the teen with magic dust in his boots - the youngest Ranger to play in Europe. Silverware and stardom followed, and his boyish good looks adorned the bedroom walls of girls and boys alike.

He was a superhero at Spurs and international honours followed with Scotland, but he shocked the footballing world by hooking up with Jock Stein at Celtic. He became a square peg in a round hole with the Hoops. Loved by his team-mates, but loathed by the supporters he had 'betrayed' at Ibrox, he was an easy target for the boo boys. A quip at the expense of Celtic legend Billy McNeill ended his spell in green and white.

Love him or loathe him, Alfie's only goal is to set the record straight - by telling the truth about his time on both sides of the Old Firm divide in this revealing book.

Jeff Holmes has written books on some of the great figures at Rangers, including Jock Wallace, Davie Meiklejohn and Mark Walters. His knowledge of the club is equalled only by his passion. While Alfie was winning the European Cup Winners' Cup, 11-year-old Jeff was sat at home watching a delayed TV transmission. Jeff has written for all the major Scottish newspapers and was shortlisted for the William Hill Best Overseas Autobiography in 2016.
