  It's Not All About The Old Firm tells the inside stories of some of the Scottish game's greatest achievements by clubs outside of Glasgow. Heroes and legends unite to share their stories of overcoming the odds and adversity, recalling how they helped their clubs step out of Rangers' and Celtic's shadows. Covering every league title, European, Scottish Cup and League Cup victory from Sir Alex Ferguson's time at Aberdeen to Dundee United's Scottish Cup heroics of 2010, the triumphs of Motherwell, Kilmarnock, Raith Rovers, St Mirren, Dundee United, Livingston, Hibs and Hearts are relived by the history makers themselves. Players such as Alex McLeish, Willie Miller, Paul Lambert, Jimmy Nicholl, Steven Fletcher, Jim Jefferies and David Goodwillie offer unique insights into their greatest footballing moments. Behind-the-scenes stories from each club's glory run involve stays in haunted hotels, dressing room and tunnel bust-ups and betting scandals - climaxing in unforgettable victories.
