Begg to Differ
“Upon realising the gravity of the situation, the said gentleman sobered up within seconds of his brain computing what my dad had just told him – he had missed the biggest game in the history of Aberdeen Football Club.” One of the many fascinating stories from life-long Dons fan Ally Begg.
From growing up in a small fishing hamlet just north of the Granite City, and nearly making the grade at his hometown club, to touring the world as a member of 1990s’ boy band Bad Boys Inc and working at two of the biggest clubs in football, Manchester United and Celtic, Ally recalls his many colourful adventures – and the occasional run-in – with his contemporaries in both music and sport. It’s not all plain sailing! Discover how he cast disappointment aside to forge a successful career as a sports broadcaster in south-east Asia. Ally’s numerous encounters with larger-than-life personalities are remembered in this, his first book. His one constant companion, though, was never far away; his beloved Aberdeen Football Club. Foreword by Sir Alex Ferguson.
