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.

Mark grew up in Scotland but now lives in north-west England with his wife, his daughter and his whippet. He gets back to Scotland for games as often as he can.
