An in-depth look at the most successful period in Aberdeen FC history – a footballing success story like no other.

From 1978 to 1986, under the management of Alex Ferguson, the club not only dominated Scottish football, but two European titles in 1983 made them a household name throughout the continent. Ten major trophies in seven seasons brought unprecedented success to a club that had previously amassed half of that total from 75 years in existence.

The arrival of a young, driven manager honed in the tough streets of Glasgow, allied with an up-and-coming Aberdeen side, was a recipe for success. The city of Aberdeen was just beginning to enjoy the affluence that came from a bustling oil industry. The club reflected that success in a way that had never been seen before or since.

Aberdeen as a club had huge untapped potential, but it needed the right manager to take things forward. Alex Ferguson was that man. Published in 2024.
