Fair play to @Stevie_Poacher and @LeitrimGAA for opening their doors to me on the eve of the Galway game - not too many would allow it!

The panellists’ journey from Dublin to training in Leitrim’s Centre of Excellence shows the county have reasons to be cheerful despite dark days in the past

Official publication day for ‘The Walls’ yesterday Loved working with James on this because of his willingness to open the doors to his home & to his mind There’s so much more to his story than the social media snaps and I’m grateful he trusted me to help him tell it

James McClean's is the best footballer autobiography I have read in a long time. I admire anyone who is willing to put everything about themselves out there, which McClean has done, and it is brilliantly arranged and written by @McDonnellDan.

Two contrasting images from the same spot in Castlebar. One, the early hours of the Monday morning after Mayo won Sam. Two, this morning at 6.30am as our book, Never Stop Dreaming, went to print! We are certain all Mayo fans will love it! Presale on mayobooks.ie

The 31-year-old had a relatively short county career, but he delivered some unforgettable moments in the Waterford jersey

Haven't been near this house for some time, and this post is entirely for self-interest: tomorrow, this goes on sale. It's a bit more than a sport story; would appreciate a share, please, there's part of my soul between those pages. @lukeming @Vincent_Hogan @LawlorDamian

A big game of whack a mole is badly needed among the inter-county refereeing ranks - tis pathetic the levels of leakage going on from all these meetings and the nonsense reaching the public airwaves! We’ll be hearing what types of sandwiches were being thrown up next!
