The vast majority of players featured would be Scottish born and, hard though it may be to conceive, most of the grounds may actually have been built with Scottish-produced steel – changes in football only mirror changes in society.

Perhaps it was the "away days" that were the best of all and all those scenes of triumph and disaster, joy and despair - are here.

I’m putting together a book – a photo-led nostalgia book, not entirely a history tome – about how grounds used to look in the black and white era before the Taylor Report swept away standing terraces.

There are also chapters focusing on aspects of football grounds that have been forgotten - dugouts, segregation divides and more.Finance is provided by PayPal Credit (a trading name of PayPal UK Ltd, Whittaker House, Whittaker Avenue, Richmond-Upon-Thames, Surrey, United Kingdom, TW9 1EH).

V. deals ruined British football (along with the Bosman Ruling) and just about destroyed fans' links with their local clubs. There are almost 200 photos of 42 football stadiums here that have lain unseen, in archives and rarely accessed collections, for decades. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Hibs, Dundee United, Aberdeen, Rangers, Motherwell, Kilmarnock and more feature in Volume 2 as well as a lengthy look at Hampden.

A fantastic range of images, supported by some interesting newspaper articles and informative text, quickly dispensed any fears of a lament to times past.

As the veteran journalist Chick Young says in the foreword, these are photos of the “good old, bad old days”.A picture-led record of a man who was the architect of one of the greatest achievements in Scottish football history. Also contains anecdotes and quirks gathered from fans, club historians and newspaper articles of decades past. Looking at grounds across the country, each volume contains around 700 photos of Scottish football grounds, players and crowd scenes.
