Andy, Lessons Learned in Pursuit of Glory

Andy Moran is one of the most respected and admired sportsmen to ever grace a Gaelic football arena.

The former double All-Star, Footballer of the Year and Mayo team captain has written a compelling appraisal of the sport he loves. This first publication by the Mayo author follows his retirement in 2019. It is a book about Mayo football – the agony, the ecstasy, the bitter near misses, the players, the friendships, the highs and the lows.

House Of Pain, Through the Rooms of Mayo Football

House of Pain by Keith Duggan (reissued) is the sweeping chronicle of 50 years of unrewarded endeavour which captures the spirit of Mayo football and Mayo football people. Mayo’s glorious but failed quest for All-Ireland honours has by now been woven into the nation’s sporting mythology.

House of Pain is an account of that long journey, but also of the personal lives of those who were in the vanguard of the battle, and whose stories are told with warmth and compassion. Keith Duggan’s obvious love for Mayo football is the cornerstone of House of Pain, an ode to Mayo football sadness, to half a century of bitter disappointments and might-have-beens.

When first published, House of Pain was hailed as a classic for the ages. It has lost none of its bitter sweet sparkle in this, its second iteration.
