The Thistle and the Grail by Robin Jenkins
The Thistle is the unlucky local football team of Drumsagart, a drab industrial town in Lanarkshire. Cursed with poverty, an ineffective president and a string of defeats, the Thistle team members are running low on morale, especially when it seems like there are many people against them...'As a story-teller, Jenkins has few equals'
