Socceroos in Scotland is a fascinating dive into the close footballing relationship between Australia and Scotland.

While Scots had a significant impact on the development of the game Down Under, roles started to be reversed from the 1980s, when the first Aussies tried their luck in the Scottish game. From Davie Mitchell at Rangers to Ange Postecoglou at Celtic, the influence of Australians in Scottish football has grown steadily over four decades. Finding a Socceroo in a Scottish squad has gone from being a novelty to a staple.

From Gretna in the south to Ross County in the far north, clubs all over the country have benefited from recruiting an Aussie.

This book features exclusive interviews with several of the key protagonists in this growth, including Tony Vidmar, Scott McDonald, Danny Invincibile, Erik Paartalu and Dave McPherson. There are also chapters looking at the impact of the likes of Craig Moore, Mark Viduka, Jackson Irvine, and Tom Rogic.

There are insights from some of the Socceroos' former teammates and coaches, in addition to the thoughts of some of the journalists who have observed the players involved at close quarters.

Murphy, Paul: - Paul Murphy is an independent football writer based in Bangkok, with a decade of experience covering Asian football for outlets including ESPN, AFP, FourFourTwo, and the AFC. A former Scottish newspaper sports editor, he brings a unique perspective to this story of shared history and shifting influence between two footballing cultures.
