A LIFE IN FOOTBALL. A LIFE IN CELTIC.
Still loved by fans for the way he gave his heart and soul out on the pitch, Murdo MacLeod will forever be remembered for the decisive goal that helped Celtic win the league title in 1979 against bitter rivals Rangers, sparking a deafening roar of the familiar chant MURDO! MURDO! around the stadium.
Murdo has had an extraordinary career and has won every domestic honour. With over 300 appearances for Celtic and 20 for Scotland, he also won the German Cup and Super Cup in 1989 with Borussia Dortmund before returning to home soil to start his coaching career with Hibernian FC, and back at Celtic FC as Assistant Coach under Wim Jansen.
Murdo talks about his glittering career and his recent health struggles which have led to heart surgery, two months on life support and having to learn to walk again. Going from sporting hero to a desperate struggle for life, this is the searingly honest and heartfelt memoir from a much-loved football legend.
'If you wanted a day and a night in the life of Murdo, you'd take the night that Murdo scored the fourth goal to settle the 4-2 game, and you'd take the day he stood beside Wim Jansen and stopped Rangers from winning 10 in a row' HUGH KEEVINS

Hugh Keevins began in journalism with the Sunday Post in 1970 and is now a columnist with the Sunday Mail, having also previously been with the Scotsman and the Daily Record. His career in broadcasting with Radio Clyde began in 1985 and he remains a member of the Superscoreboard team on Scotland's most listened-to sports programme. He is married to Janet and they have three children and six grandchildren. It remains his belief that the best ad libs are written down.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Some players epitomise the ethos of a football club and, for Celtic FC, Murdo MacLeod is one of those players. Still loved by the fans for the way he gave his heart and soul out on the pitch, he won every domestic honour and will forever be remembered for the decisive goal that helped Celtic win the league title in 1979 against bitter rivals Rangers and sparked a deafening roar of the familiar chant of MURDO! MURDO! around the stadium.Murdo's career also took him to Germany to star for Borussia Dortmund where he won both the German Cup and Super Cup in 1989, before returning to home soil to captain Hibernian FC. He also made 20 appearances for Scotland and played in the 1990 World Cup Finals.The highlight of Murdo's coaching career came as Assistant Coach at Celtic under Wim Jansen when, in the 1997-98 season, they won the league and League Cup double, and stopped arch-rivals Rangers' bid to win ten league titles in a row for the first time. It was Wim and Murdo's only season in charge but their contribution to the club that year was of historic significance. In recent years, however, his health has been blighted by a serious heart condition which has led to several months on life support and the loss of his toes, which has forced him to learn how to walk again. Murdo now details this ongoing struggle, the effect it has had on his life and family, and how it feels to have gone from a sporting hero to a desperate struggle for life.This searingly honest and heartfelt memoir by a much-loved football legend will be one of the sports books of the year. Celtic FC legend Murdo MacLeod made nearly 300 appearances for the club. Now, for the first time, Murdo talks about his glittering playing career in Scotland and Germany, the fans he still adores and his recent health struggles which have led to heart surgery, two months on life support and having to learn to walk again.
