About this Event
Archie Macpherson has been writing and broadcasting on the beautiful game for 60 years. From triumphalism to downright despondency, from the 16mm film pictures of the sixties to the digital age, Scotland’s premier football commentator has seen and felt it all. In today’s disfiguring financial landscape, Scottish football faces unprecedented challenges. Is our appreciation of the game cheapened by increased access via technology? What does the future hold for Scottish football? If anyone knows, Macpherson does.

ScotlandsFest is Luath Press' annual festival during the Edinburgh fringe, celebrating the vibrant literary, cultural and political landscape of Scotland. There are many Scotlands, so many ideas of what Scotland is and can be. Each of us carries our own vision, our own experiences and our own perspectives of our nation. At ScotlandsFest, we celebrate these many Scotlands as seen through the eyes of the poet, the artist and the scholar.
Whether you live here or are visiting, make the most of your time at the Fringe. Discover ScotlandsFest. Big thinking in a small country – thought-provoking discussions, immersive storytelling, history, poetry, politics and more.
