BBC One - Scotland's Game, The Perfect Storm

How Scotland's desire to be part of the global football brand came at a price.

Charting the changes in Scottish football. How Scotland's desire to be part of a global football brand - and access the money that came with it - came at a price.

Football had become a global brand and Scotland was keen for its share of the action, and the cash. But the new money came at a price, top players demanded higher wages, kick-off times were changed and TV now called the shots.

Clubs desperate to compete in this new world were vulnerable to hare-brained schemes, mavericks with deep pockets and ego-driven illusions.

Almost overnight the dual drivers of money and media transformed the game - but left Scottish football struggling to forge an identity that would carry it into the future.
