When Derek Johnstone scored the winning goal for Rangers in the 1970 League Cup Final against Celtic at just sixteen years of age, he became an overnight sensation. It was an incredible start to an incredible career and the first of his 210 goals for the club. And from that moment on, DJ never looked back. In DJ - The Derek Johnstone Story, he now tells the full inside story of how it all happened. There's the 1972 Cup Winners' Cup success in Barcelona, the realities of life under Willie Waddell and Jock Wallace, the tragedy of the Ibrox Disaster, his Argentina 1978 World Cup hell, his emotional exit from Ibrox under Graeme Souness, his time as manager at Partick Thistle and the highs and lows of a private life which made tabloid headlines all too often.
