Inhaltsangabe

Alan Rough is the best-loved Scottish goalkeeper of all time -- not just for his shot-stopping skills, but also for his ability to laugh at himself when some of those shots did manage to sneak past his trademark perm into the net. In a career that spanned three decades he kept goal for Partick Thistle, Celtic and Hibs as well as earning 53 caps for Scotland. He played with some of the biggest names in the game -- including Alan Hansen, Kenny Dalglish and George Best -- and was between the posts for some of the classic moments in Scottish football, such as Thistle's 4-1 League Cup victory over Celtic, the 1977 Wembley classic and the '78 and '82 World Cup campaigns. Never one to hold back, Alan Rough tells outrageous stories of the extra-curricular activities of his fellow players, all related with the wit and intelligence that have made him so popular.
