Although I never had the pleasure of playing in the Scottish leagues, I was honoured by my country on 29 occasions and played in the 1982 World Cup Finals. Therefore, I was delighted to be asked to write the foreword to The Scottish Football Quiz Book. Most people love a quiz, and footballers are no exception. I know that my old Ipswich and Scotland team mate George Burley in his capacity as Scotland Coach will love this book. We could certainly have used it to good effect in all those long motorway coach journeys with Ipswich! Graeme has packed a multitude of fascinating facts and figures into his book, and the questions will provide a keen test of the reader’s knowledge. So, whether you support Aberdeen or Annan Athletic, or are simply a member of the Tartan Army, I can thoroughly recommend The Scottish Football Quiz Book to all followers of Scottish Football. I hope you enjoy the book, I certainly did! (Picture: John Wark with a copy of 'The Scottish Football Quiz Book'). |

Having played for and coached the Scotland international side, and played for and managed some of Scottish Football’s finest clubs, I was delighted to be asked to write the foreword to The Scottish Football Quiz Book. This is a book that every student of Scottish football will enjoy immensely. With 1,000 questions on a huge range of subjects, there is something here for everyone, and I can guarantee that you will be entertained and fascinated by the wealth of facts and figures to be found in Graeme’s challenging book. And it’s not just fans of the big clubs who are catered for – there are questions on every senior club in Scotland, as well as the National side, and many of the great characters who have graced the football world. Reading through the book reminded me of many of great players Scotland has produced – even the ones that kicked me! Perhaps I can educate my Birmingham Sassenachs on the team bus! Enjoy the book, I certainly did! |
