Summary

Over 25 years have passed since Scotland last qualified for the World Cup Finals in 1998. It's been a long wait, but with qualification for the last two Euro Championship finals, and reaching the play-offs in the 2022 World Cup qualifiers, recent years have offered a glimmer of hope. As the 2026 World Cup qualifiers approach, could the long wait finally be over? Qualification has never been easy, but the golden age of many memorable and nail-biting nights is well worth remembering - in the hope that one day they may come again. Archie Macpherson commentated on all 18 of Scotland's World Cup matches during that purple patch from 1974 to 1998, and now in his Adventures in the Golden Age, he tells the story of the matches and the men that raised and dashed hopes in almost equal measure at the greatest tournament on earth.
