About the Author

David Potter is a Scottish sports writer who has published more than twenty books on Scottish football and cricket. His books include Willie Maley: The Man Who Made Celtic, Walk on: Celtic Since McCann and Celtic in the League Cup, among others. He was born in Forfar in 1948 and grew up with a passion for football, having seen his first game in 1954.  He graduated from St. Andrews University in 1970 and taught Classics and Spanish at Glenrothes High School from 1971 until 2003. He now teaches part-time at Osborne House School in Dysart. He lives in Kirkcaldy and is married with three children, four grandchildren and a dog. Other than football, his passions are cricket and drama.  Phil H. Jones is a retired local government manager who has lived in northeast Fife, Scotland since 1974. A graduate of St. Andrews University, he saw his first Scottish football match in 1966 when he was a student. He went on to visit all the Scottish League grounds, usually accompanied by David Potter, and since retiring from Fife Council in 2003 has extended his football travels to non-league grounds throughout Scotland.  In the course of carrying out research for this expanded edition of the encyclopaedia he has visited places as far apart as Wick and Wigtown. He is married with three adult children, and his other interests include researching family history and taking his dog for long walks.
