What is For Richer, For Poorer: Rangers: The Story Behind the Rise and Fall of a Football Institution about?

In For Richer, For Poorer, journalist and author Paul Smith charts the tumultuous tenure of Scotland's most high-profile football club owner, David Murray. When Murray purchased a controlling interest in Rangers Football Club in 1988, he set about changing the face of the club and the domestic game. He is responsible for some of the biggest events in Scottish football, breaking down religious barriers and using his millions to attract world stars such as Paul Gascoigne and Brian Laudrup to Scotland. Away from Ibrox, the owner masterminded the construction of the acclaimed Murray Park training complex and in the boardroom he oversaw a series of share issues and investment schemes. But when the Rangers finances began to crumble and the banks began to close in, Murray attempted to sell, leading to one of the longest-running, eventful sagas the Scottish game has seen. For the first time, in For Richer, For Poorer, Murray's time at the club is examined and investigated, with the exclusive input of many of the figures at the club who have watched the drama unfold
