More Than A Game by Archie Macpherson
Archie Macpherson examines the story of footballs most explosive rivalry - Celtic v Rangers. This vitriolic conflict is more than a game. It is a kaleidoscope of bitter dispute, and occasional violence, and Archie Macpherson provides a colourful insight into how it was to live with the Old Firm for over five decades.
‘Archie Macpherson's new Old Firm opus makes for required reading’ – Matthew Lindsay, The Herald
