      This autobiography of the footballer Paul McGrath chronicles his upbringing in Ireland in foster homes and orphanages, his early playing career with Pease Rovers, Dalkey United and St Patrick's Athletic, and his journey across the Irish Sea to Manchester United. The bright lights of Manchester caused their own problems - and thus began a battle with the bottle that has plagued his life. His soccer success at Old Trafford was mixed with trouble too - in the shape of knee injuries and public disagreements with manager Alec Ferguson. The book goes on to cover his playing career as an Ireland international and his move to Aston Villa, where he was voted the PFA's Player of the Year.
