Hampden Babylon by Stuart Cosgrove

Hampden Babylon This is the story of a country and an incurable condition ...From the "messianic" Hughie Gallagher, through to Jimmy Johnstone and Jim Baxter, from Andy Goram and Ally McCoist to imports Paulo Di Canio and Paul Gascoigne - this title gives all Scottish football's rogues a good going over. Cosgrove lampoons Ramon Vega's cross-dressing, Billy Bremner's benders and the playing-up-enhancing drug use of Willie Johnston and George O'Boyle. It looks at the antics of the "unholy trinity" - Frank "whurz and burdz" McAvennie, Champagne Charlie and a certain Maurice Johnston. Never mind the disappointments of Germany 1974 or Argentina 1978 - of Spain 1982 or France 1998 - here, in all its squalid glory, is everything we hold dear about Scottish football.
