A new book makes the case for Scotland and Edinburgh to be the home of Football.  Remember 1996 Football's Coming Home. Seems it wasn't.

Correct Ricky the football club of Edinburgh was the first ever club solely dedicated to football,  and here is another piece of sporting history you probably didn't know .... The first ever recorded reference of a contest using curling stones were found in 1541 in paisley... paisley abbey to be precise, so we invented curling anaw  :whistle
