THE UNTOLD, INSIDE STORY OF MY LIFE AT RANGERS FC AND IN BUSINESS

'I could fight or I could give up. Turn left or turn right.'

For 50 years Sir David Murray has been a towering figure in Scottish business, sport and philanthropy. His family name is synonymous with steel but his rise to power owes as much to mettle as it does to metal.

At the age of 24 he was involved in an horrific car crash in which he lost both of his legs. As his life hung in the balance, his days in hospital, drifting in and out of consciousness, were nightmare moments but ones that would define him. In the aftermath, when he finally pulled through, he had stark choices to make.

This is a man who thrived on the big stage, as the owner of Rangers Football Club during an unprecedented era of success. He oversaw some memorable European campaigns, all while rubbing shoulders with the likes of Paul Gascoigne, Graeme Souness and Sir Sean Connery.

Mettle is a truly remarkable tale of never-say-die triumph over unimaginable adversity.
