The Heartbeat of Scotland
Julie McNeill’s Poetic Ode to the World Cup

In "We Are Scottish Football: World Cup Edition," Julie McNeill invites readers into the heart of Scotland’s footballing journey, capturing the nation’s pulse as it returns to the World Cup after 28 years. McNeill, celebrated for her work as Poet in Residence for St Mirren FC Charitable Foundation and Makar for The Scottish Women’s National Football Team Poets Society, weaves together poetry and photographs to celebrate the game’s enduring spirit. Her unique perspective blends the emotional highs and lows of Scottish football, from nail-biting qualifiers to the electric roar of Hampden Park.
This collection is more than just a tribute to the players who wear the Scotland shirt; it’s a testament to the supporters whose faith never wavered. Julie McNeill’s writing shines with authenticity, drawing upon her deep roots in creative writing and mental health advocacy. As Stuart Cosgrove notes, she ensures “we don’t forget the impact our footballing history has had on the world.”
Ian Maxwell, CEO of the SFA, hails the book as “a must-read for any fan of football, history, poetry and Scotland.” With contributions from World Cup winner Rose Reilly MBE and praise from The Herald’s Paul English, McNeill’s poetry connects generations through football’s shared memories and dreams.
"We Are Scottish Football: World Cup Edition" stands as a timely, evocative, and essential read, affirming Julie McNeill’s place as an influential voice in both literature and the Scottish game.
