Book Description
In June 1991, Blackburn Rovers chairman Bill Fox announced that his club wanted to sign the England captain Gary Lineker from Tottenham Hotspur. The news shocked Spurs, while the agent of the striker, who just a year before had nearly led England to World Cup glory, thought it was a publicity stunt. Why was this club in the second tier of English football, a club that hadn’t won a major trophy since before World War Two, chasing the country’s most famous striker? The answer lay in events that had taken place in January of the same year: local businessman Jack Walker had taken full control of the club. A few months later, Kenny Dalglish, the most famous football manager in the country, took charge at Ewood Park. The club were still in the Second Division, but the joke was over. Promotion followed, and in that summer Alan Shearer, the hottest young property in English football, joined for a British transfer record. Two years later, after finishing runners-up to Manchester United, Blackburn broke that record again to sign Chris Sutton, and then went one better and won the Premier League title. 25 years on from that monumental moment, lifelong fan John Duerden examines Blackburn’s triumph and how it changed English football forever. Rovers may not have stayed at the top of English football for long, but their legacy remains. In Rovers Revolution, Duerden also reflects on the impact of that success on Blackburn as a club and as a town. He dissects in detail the seasons and events that led up to that point and the events that made sure it would never happen again.

Book Description
Hero. A word used and abused in football, but for those who fought for their country in Britain's armed forces during the brutal conflicts of the twentieth century, there can be no better description. And over the years, Rangers Football Club has produced its share of true heroes. The club's traditional motto, 'Aye Ready', has applied on the pitch for well over a century, but for a generation of Ibrox stars, those words were carried onto the battlefields on foreign shores as they fought for their country. Some emerged to once again to pull on their football boots, others were less fortunate and paid the ultimate price for their loyalty to the cause. All will forever be remembered as Rangers heroes. Aye Ready profiles the stories of a selection of the club's war veterans - their life and times in football, along with the battles they fought, in a lasting tribute to a band of men who represented Rangers with distinction.

Book Description
You can have a lot of laughs in ten years, which is why we have collected the very best of the amusing stories encountered by the readers of The Herald Diary column over the past decade. There was even a Scottish Labour Prime Minister all those years ago, Celtic fans could only dream that their team would begin its quest for 10 titles in a row, and the word Covid was simply a typing error for David or cove. So as everyone could really do with a smile just now, we have combed well over two thousand Diary columns to bring the best of what made Scots laugh over the last ten years, whether it is the sharpest humour from pubs, the daft things children say or the humour from all sides of Scottish courts, the very best are here.

Book Description
In the year England failed to qualify for the World Cup, it seemed Manchester United were destined to carry all before them, hoovering up domestic football trophies with the enthusiasm of a kleptomaniac. Jim White followed the colossi of English football through a campaign of stratospheric highs and catastrophic lows. From Istanbul to Ipswich, Budapest to the Boleyn Road, he travelled with the team and with the fans, getting to the heart of the most formidable football machine this country has ever seen.

Book Description
If every Glaswegian thinks they are a comedian, then the "Herald" newspaper's daily "Diary" column is their jokebook. When true life cartwheels over into humour, or a joke is cracked in a Scottish office, bar or playground, it usually ends up in the "Diary". The year 2011 has brought us royal weddings, Scottish elections, tumbling house prices, headline-grabbing football matches, and dire weather. Yet Scots smiled through the lot, and told the "Diary" about it. We have now carefully gone over the hundreds of "Diary" stories from the past 12 months to bring you the very best. In this volume, we gather the very best tales from the column, proving that ordinary Scots are still the natural comedians of the world.
