The best Gaa book I've read is Liam Dunnes, followed closly by Christy O'Connors about hurling goalkeepers, I think its called 'Last Man Standing'

For anyone with contacts in england , scotland or wales, Tom Humphries book Dublin V kerry hardback version is now in the £1 shops. I couldn't believe my eyes when I seen them in the shop in Glasgow. Neither could the assistant at the checkput when I bought 4.

God and the referee - unforgettable GAA quotations - by Eoghan Corry - not so much a biography, but a compilation of why we all love the gaa and its fans, some great quotes and stories in there !

i'd be a football man myself but hurling revolution years is by far the best sports book ive ever read. The Offaly section is pure priceless, staying in a hotel and the lads going down for breakfast at 11 in the morning, Johnny Pilkington is still drinking and he;s up on a table sing sweet caroline!! Best football book would be mickey harte knocking on heavens door!

What are the names of the £1 shops? Are they literally just called £1 shop?
