Scotland Football Book Gift in 5 Words:

History, Drama, Personalised, Hampden, Victory

Do you know a Scottish football fan? Do you want to give him a memorable gift? This book is the answer…

Great History

This book from GoneDigging kicks off in 1921 with Scotland’s 3-0 victory over England and then charts the glory and the pain of the national side up to the present day. Other notable victories over England are included including the 3-1 thumping of England in front of a record Hampden Park crowd of 149,407 in 1937.

Gift with a Personal Touch

Each of these books is available in a range of covers to suit all pockets. I like the least expensive one the best with its ‘linen type’ effect. Add a name and a message to the front page for free. Spend a few more pounds and gold emboss the front cover. That’s worth every penny as it makes a massive impact and this gift unique.

Top 5 Celtic FC Gifts

Get the wee man a Celtic FC footy gift; a unique book covering 100 years of Celtic history…

Celtic Gift in 5 Words

Hoops, Embossed, Nostalgia, Winners, Dalglishhhhhhhh!

Celtic FC Gift of the Year

All fans of Parkhead will appreciate a good blather about the glorious and dramatic moments created by Dalglishhhhhh and all the other heroes of this historic club. We recommend this newspaper book personalised for the fan in your life.

The Celtic FC Football Book

What’s great about this book is all the lost moments and the key stories that it brings back. Maybe the 2:1 win over Aberdeen in the Scottish Cup Final is a bit of ancient history but a true fan MUST know all the facts! Something we really like is the more human stories like Jock Stein becoming manager in 1965.

GoneDigging are now offering three different covers and prices so you could go for the linen cover (my favourite), the leatherette, or the luxury cover. Great book – great choices!

Celtic Football Book Gift

All in the Name

Put your dad, son, daughter, or mum’s name in a calendar dedicated to Celtic legends. This is great for their ego and they’ll feel part of Parkhead. We like the name in the advertising hoarding.

Have a look here: Celtic Legends Calendar

Fan Diary

A similar idea to the calendar; you get a diary full of Celtic heroes and dad’s name etc integrated into images. Great for organisation and a really neat Celtic souvenir.

Celtic Thrash Everyone!

Love this; a big bold headline and a story of how Celtic beat the world or any rival. Just pop over to this site and type-in ‘Celtic’ and their name, plus a few other details and they can have a fun framed newspaper PROVING that Celtic is the best.
Celtic Thrashes Rivals Newspaper

Hero of Parkhead Football Commentary

I really love this it’s a gift that will make them feel like their on the pitch, wearing hoops, and winning the game in a last-gasp-dramatic-acrobatic-goal-scoring-moment. Recorded by professionals.

Yet More Celtic FC Gift Ideas

Ultimate Football Fan - This includes a quiz for all football lovers and great for all the football family.

Personalised Football Tattoo Poster - A high impact poster that’s a bit saucy and even more striking.

Jim Says “The history book is the killer gift and you can buy an updated ‘Season’ book every year as well. Love the commentary idea too.”

Football Book Gift Ideas – Moments of Memorabilia

Does the football fan in your family remember standing on the terraces? I do. It was cold but the pies were hot. Do they hark back to the old days? I love nostalgia, in fact we should get some new nostalgia, the old nostalgia isn’t as good as the new stuff.

I love reading stories of what players are really like and that’s why I love old newspapers. Whenever I go in the loft I always find a scrap of newsprint that takes me back to when we first moved house or when I put the sledge away several winters ago and forgot about it.

Evocative Football Gifts

This football book delivers a feast of memories that your fan can tuck into. Why is it so good? Because these books are made up of newspaper stories; so the matches are reported as they happened and all the drama is captured with great pictures.

Personalised Football Gift

What really makes it a unique football gift is that you can personalise the front cover with a name in gold embossing. It costs an extra fiver but it’s worth it for the impression it makes.

Season It

What’s also smart is you can get a season book ie they update the books with a supplementary one every season. Now these are only available for the top ten or so teams in England and Scotland but they are worth it.

Big Football Gift

These football books are tabloid sized, that’s thirty-eight centimetres by thirty-one and that makes them very impressive.

Check out the available teams on Gone Digging football gifts.
