Editorial Reviews

'A great read … Jack takes the reader inside the inner sanctum of our religion. All is exposed. … By his achievements he has seen off the Kerry prophets of doom, buried the caustic pundits and steamrolled his critics, and he did it all in some style … Attention to detail and total commitment to strategy and planning are the mark of the man. He gets results.' Irish Times'A brilliant football book by a brilliant football man' Sunday Tribune'This is a book that drips with barely concealed bitterness and is all the better for it' Sunday Business Post'We should be thankful that O'Connor has had the good grace to put his real thoughts in print … He is candid, direct and doesn't engage in doublespeak' Irish News'Wonderfuly written, a compelling tale … ' Irish Daily Mail
