His Scotland career too was cut short at the age of only 27, although he did manage to appear in one of Scotland's greatest ever games - their 3-2 win over the then World Champions England at Wembley in 1967. Spells as a manager followed at Dundee, where he sold a young Gordon Strachan to Aberdeen, and Albion Rovers before he eventually retired from the game. But as one of the famous Lisbon Lions he would always be associated with their night of triumph, and that honour has affected his life for better and worse on a daily basis ever since. This is the first time Tommy Gemmell has written a full autobiography. In it he compares life in the sixties with the modern game and offers many forthright views on footballers today and Celtic Football Club. Packed with wit, anecdotes and his fun-filled approach to playing and life after retirement, this will be an essential read for all football fans.
