Daniel Gray
with Alan McCredie
In celebration of the Scottish Cup turning 150 years old during the 2023/24 season, Nutmeg photographer Alan McCredie and writer and Nutmeg Editor Daniel Gray followed every round of the competition. The result is a beautiful photo essay book, Cup Tied
McCredie and Gray sought out the charms of the modern Scottish Cup and found them in abundance.
Blending McCredie’s captivating pictures and Gray’s lyrical words, Cup Tied is an enchanting celebration of our national game. The book captures small town teams as their communities are lured by the Cup’s everlasting pull.
Cup Tied is an elegant voyage among giantkillers and cup runs and weekend plans sparked by the words: ‘And that concludes the draw…’ In the mould of McCredie and Gray’s hugely successful book Snapshot, it is a football documentary in print.
"A thing of real beauty... sums up the true passion of Scotland's national game" Pat Nevin
