Glory, Issue 10 – Scotland

Glory is a new football magazine with an ethos to put the ‘beautiful’ back in the beautiful game. We travel the world documenting alternative football cultures including the most remote, exotic and unusual destinations.

Glory are a team of designers, writers and photographers with a shared passion for football. We wanted to explore football beyond the Premier League, the Champions League and the World Cup, beyond Sky Sports and BT – beyond even the Football League and the major European club competitions.

Football is the world’s most popular sport, and there are countless nations where die-hard fans pack remote, windswept stadia or watch their national teams scrap for the honour of a place in the FIFA top 100. We look beyond the money, the glamour and the trophies to find the real Glory of football.

In this issue:

For this issue we head to the birthplace of the beautiful game – Scotland.

From the game’s origins in Victorian Britain, through to their qualification for Euro 2024, Issue 10 is a love letter to fitba’.

We speak to a raft of current and former players and managers including Billy Gilmour, Pat Nevin, Craig Levein, Elsie Cook and Laura Montgomery and take a detailed look at clubs of all shapes and sizes from across the country.

Exploring the big cities and the remotest islands, we have the definitive guide for where to stay, where to eat and where to drink, wherever your trip takes you.

Welcome to Scotland. Yaldi.
