Niall Quinn: The Autobiography
When Niall Quinn learned he was going to the 2002 World Cup with Ireland, it seemed the perfect climax to his international career. Yet even before the competition had started, Quinn was caught up in the most emotionally draining events of his career, as Ireland's World Cup campaign was rocked by Roy Keane's sudden departure. All his efforts at mediation failed, leaving him exhausted. As he worked to find a solution, Quinn looked back on his life and career, and saw echoes of his current situation. In this fascinating autobiography, updated for this edition, he recalls the all-night drinking sessions with Tony Adams and Paul Merson, the gambling, the good times and the bad. It is a remarkable story, brilliantly told.
The Mighty Quinn
When Niall Quinn donated the £1 million proceeds from his testimonial to charity in May 2002, he was portrayed as a hero for this gesture. Yet on the night itself, the biggest story was Roy Keane's failure to appear. It was the beginning of a saga that was to run right through the World Cup, so that what should have been a fitting climax to Quinn's international career became the most difficult time of his life. For when Roy Keane walked out of Ireland's World Cup, Quinn was forced to choose between manager and team-mate: there could be only one decision. Suddenly he was at the centre of a storm, and as each day passed he looked back on his life and career - how he could have been signed up to Aussie Rules, drinking binges with Tony Adams and Paul Merson, an injury that nearly cost him his life, and much more. Brilliantly told, this is the autobiography of a remarkable man.

Gaffers
Did you know that an Irish manager did not pick the Irish football team until 1969? Do you know who that manager was? Contrary to popular opinion, Irish football management did not begin with Jack Charlton! From the early days when Irish footballers travelled across the Irish Sea on ships through to today's high-flying superstars, the role of the Irish soccer manager has changed and this book charts their experiences as both players and as managers in the dugout. The Irish Football manager is a high profile and prestigious position with many dramatic highs and lows. Including over 55 personal interviews from the key personalities and the people who knew them best, this book gives a long overdue insight into what it's like to be the manager of the boys in green. For lovers of statistics (and there are plenty!), the book lists results for all the managers during their time in charge as well as their win/loss ratio, so we can finally decide who was the greatest manager Ireland ever had.
