Celtic Cult Heroes

David Potter was born in Forfar in 1948 and grew up with a passion for football, a game in which he has done everything other than play! He has refereed, coached, commentated on, written about and watched avidly both on TV and in the flesh, having seen his first game in 1954. He graduated from St Andrews University in 1970 and taught Classics and Spanish at Glenrothes High School from 1971 until 2003. He now teaches part-time at Osborne House School in Dysart. He lives in Kirkcaldy and is married with three children, three grandchildren and a dog. Other than football, his passions are cricket and drama. He has written several books on Scottish football.
