	Nicol, Johnston story a real Scotland yarn - The Boston Globe
		Johnston was an extremely effective forward with several clubs in Europe, and scored 14 goals for Scotland's national team, including one against Sweden in the 1990 World Cup.
		Johnston's move to Rangers caused him to be ''one of the most controversial figures in Celtic's history, nevertheless in almost every match he played for Celtic, and his other clubs, [he] was a model professional," according to the club guide ''A Celtic A-Z."
		Johnston, 42, replaced Bob Bradley Oct. 4 and rallied the MetroStars to the final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference.

		Johnston was the Glasgow catholic who turned his back on his beloved Celtic and effectively broke the sectarian, protestant signing policy of Rangers.
		Johnston had already had one successful spell with Celtic when he was paraded by Jack McGinn at a 1989 press conference as a returning hero from French club Nantes.
		McMurdo insists that Johnston had talked to Celtic without his permission and that he warned the club that they had to deal with him instead of Nantes as it was his company who held the Scotland international's contract.

		Johnston was born in Springburn in Glasgow's east end, the son of a Catholic mother and Protestant father.
		According to dispatches, Johnston was involved in an unseemly late night incident, drank too much, and according to official explanations fell and smashed his face on the bedsprings.

	Overview of Maurice (Mo) Johnston (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Johnston was the first Roman Catholic to play for the team.
		Not only was this shocking in the religiously-divided football of Glasgow, but having played for Ranger's arch-rival, Celtic, Johnston was regarded as a traitor by the Celtic supporters as well as being disliked by many of Ranger's own supporters.
		Johnston was capped on 37 occasions for Scotland between 1984 and 1990, forming a goal-scoring partnership with Ally McCoist (b.1962).

		The bottom line then was that an exceptional striker opted for the better financial deal, a hike in wages which, he considered, would allow him to overcome the hostility from the two sides of the great divide.
		Those who got themselves into a lather then might have a sense of deja vu as they examine the shenanigans involved in the decision of Steven Gerrard to remain with Liverpool especially as, just 24-hours earlier, he had said he was moving.
		Like Johnston and his agent 16 years before, Gerrard and his advisor took this one to the wire, confusing all in the process.

		Maurice Johnston and I were finishing off our - I think - fifth, maybe sixth, bottle of champagne.
		It took Rangers more than a hundred years but finally in David Murray they had an owner with the courage to change things and in Graeme Souness a manager who realised that asking a player which school he went to was no way to run a football club.
		And in Maurice Johnston they found the player with the devilment and the strength of character to flush a century of shame down the toilet.

		For Maurice Johnston, the putative Jackie Robinson of Scottish soccer, the religious barriers were simply too high to climb.
		Brought in as the first Catholic player for the Protestant Glasgow Rangers in 1989, Johnston's signing was welcomed with burned season tickets and the laying of wreaths to mourn the passing of the club's identity -- even though Johnston was not a practicing Catholic and his father was a Protestant.
		Fans of the Rangers' Catholic rival, Glasgow Celtic, publicly threatened Johnston's life (some were even arrested for allegedly plotting his assassination), forcing the team to fly him to London by chartered jet every night.
