For anyone looking for a Christmas gift for Celtic family and friends, look no further.
Ten Men Won The League tells the story of Celtic’s epic 1978/79 league title success when they beat Rangers 4-2 in their final game to win the championship – and all this whilst being 0-1 down with only ten men on the field after Johnny Doyle was sent off.
All the big stories of the season are told; the departure of Jock Stein and the arrival of Billy McNeill; the record signing of Davie Provan from Kilmarnock; the debacle in Burnley; the horrendous winter weather which prevented Celtic playing a league game for ten weeks; and the lead up and background of the legendary game itself.
There are interviews with Celtic players of the period – Davie Provan, Danny McGrain, Peter Latchford, Mike Conroy and Joe Filippi.
All of this and you will never read a book with a happier ending. Spoiler alert – the good guys win !
