On a Saturday afternoon in central Scotland, Davie Thomson and Stuart Robertson have both scored goals for their respective football clubs. Once team-mates in the Glasgow Athletic title- winning side of 2001, their subsequent fortunes could not have been more different. Whilst Robertson had gone from strength to strength, winning titles and the love of the Scottish public, Thomson had slipped out of the team and down the leagues with alcohol contributing to his fall.
Scanning the results, James Donnelly, reporter for the Daily Standard, connected the two and remembered the tragic events which would forever link them and the rest of that ill-fated side. Setting out to write an article on the murder of a man, Donnelly found himself uncovering the story of the mistreatment of a woman.
A Man’s Game is a contemporary crime novel which brilliantly explores issues of violence, addiction and misogyny both in the “beautiful game” and Scottish contemporary society.
