Descriere
John Wight spares nothing in his appraisal of Glasgow Celtic Football Club as a cause to live by rather than just a club to support, with a special focus on the 1980s. During this tempestuous decade, when Thatcher and Thatcherism ruled the roost, like so many others from his background, Wight found sanctuary and meaning in Celtic.
