The Tartan Army. The Hampden Roar. The Auld Enemy. Following Scotland can be a thrilling, heartbreaking and exhilarating experience.

Scottish footballing legend Ally McCoist has always been proud of his country's footballing legacy. After all, Scotland has the oldest international team and the Scottish Cup is the oldest trophy in the world. Some even say Scotland is the true home of football...

In Dear Scotland, Ally takes the reader on an unforgettable journey through Alba. He spends time with the best fans in the game, celebrates legends like Walter Smith, Jock Stein and Kenny Dalglish, and relives some of the most iconic moments in Scottish sporting history.

Reflecting on his own call-up to the team and scoring that goal against Switzerland, to dressing room antics on tour and travelling with the Tartan Army, Ally recalls the iconic characters, defining moments and side-splitting stories that have shaped him.

Dear Scotland is a hilarious and heartfelt love letter and a tribute to being a lifelong, and sometimes long-suffering, footy fan. It reminds us why we love the thrill and madness of following Scotland.
