DUDE 0 Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Just read about this book called "Inside the divide" by Richard Wilson on the rivalry between Rangers and this green club. I thought about getting it, has anybody heard about or read it themselves, any recommendations or thoughts? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
der Berliner 3,300 Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Sayest Amazon: Since 1888, Rangers and Celtic football clubs have been locked into an intense and frequently explosive rivalry: Rangers the product of West Scotland's Protestant establishment, Celtic the team founded to raise money for the Catholic underclass of Glasgow. On 2 January 2010 the two teams met in the Old Firm's New Year Derby, a fixture that had been banned for ten years because of the trouble it brought with it. Richard Wilson puts that game at the centre of a book which delves into the history and widens out to the cultural resonance of the fixture within Scotland. It is a potent mix of close-up observation and big-picture thinking, with insight, understanding and depth. You'd hope that is does not go on from there. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DUDE 0 Posted October 6, 2012 Author Share Posted October 6, 2012 Yep just read that as well, ordered it anyway. Probably a lot of rambling but there might be some interesting parts about it, looking forward to the read. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
