'Excellent . . . illustrations well researched and numerous, and the script and format are refreshingly different'
- Programme Monthly

'A marvellous addition to the bookcase of any serious Celt'
- The Celt

Jim Craig signed for Celtic in January 1965 and played for the club until 1972. He was at right back in the team which beat Inter Milan to become the first British side to win the European Cup. He writes, therefore, as an ex-professional footballer with a deep knowledge and understanding of the grass roots of the game and much behind-the-scenes information. He also recalls the atmosphere, the players, the management, the games and many fascinating anecdotes of a remarkable period in Scottish football. The book also includes results from 1888/89 to 1967 and analytical reports on every trophy in each season, including special trophies such as the Empire Exhibition Trophy and the Coronation Cup, which Celtic won in competition with Scottish and English teams.
