Description
Rangers and Celtic football clubs have been locked into an intense rivalry since 1888. The Old Firm's New Year Derby, banned for ten years due to its explosive nature, was played in January 2010. Richard Wilson explores the history of this fixture at its centre, delving into the cultural resonance it holds within Scotland. The author offers a mix of close-up observation and big-picture thinking, providing insight, understanding, and depth into the complex relationship between the two teams. This book is a nuanced exploration of the Old Firm's enduring impact on Scottish society. With 272 pages, this paperback edition provides an in-depth look at the history and cultural significance of Rangers and Celtic football clubs.
