McGuinness book promises to reveal workings within 'mysterious, dark and fearsome' Donegal camp

Jimmy’s winning, erm… books?

THE DETAILS AND title of the hotly anticipated Jim McGuinness autobiography have been unveiled ahead of its release this October.

The book is titled Until Victory Always and in a blurb on Amazon, it promises that the All-Ireland winning manager will ‘reveal what life was like inside the Donegal camp.’

“This is the story,” the description continues, “of how he combined a unique vision and ferocious drive to create a powerful and disciplined team that bucked history and defied every expectation.

“McGuinness sent a shockwave through Gaelic games by devising an approach which polarised opinion and forced fans, players and managers alike to look at the game differently. From the outside, what Donegal were doing appeared mysterious, dark and fearsome.”

You can curl up under a blanket defence and read Until Victory Always from 23 October.

    I’m sure the irony of Jim McGuinness revealing all in a book is not lost on Kevin Cassidy.

    Really hope he gets a good ghost writer (Keith Duggan or Kieran Shannon would be perfect) and this could be a belter of a book.

    No matter what your opinions on the football, he’s a fiercely interesting guy.
