内容简介
在线阅读本书
A publishing phenomenon in hardcover, Roy Keane's autobiography was the biggest selling sports book of the year. Now in paperback it includes a new chapter covering Keane's vindication by the FAI report, and the punishment meted out by the FA and Mick McCarthy's resignation. Brilliantly reviewed, Roy Keane's riveting, brutally honest autobiography has the potential to be one of the year's biggest paperback bestsellers.

Amazon.co.uk Review
The most talked about, written about and argued over sports autobiography of 2002,Keane: the Autobiographydoes not disappoint. This story of Manchester United and Ireland captain Roy Keane''s brilliant and controversial career, written in collaboration with Irish journalist and former professional footballer Eamon Dunphy, crackles with score-settling vigour.It presents a revisionist view of a life in football that has had tabloid editors rubbing their hands with glee almost from the moment the fiery, confrontational midfielder made his British debut for Nottingham Forest under arch eccentric Brian Clough right through to his sensational bust-up with international boss Mick McCarthy and subsequent departure from the 2002 Irish World Cup squad on the eve of the finals.Amid all the wrangling and point-scoring Dunphy and Keane have written a rags-to-riches review of Keane''s journey from a poor, battling background in Cork to the £50k a week highlife at Old Trafford. It''s very entertaining, although an independent biographer would doubtless have put a less heroic spin on proceedings.The two key headline-grabbing stories--the war with McCarthy and the allegedly deliberate injuring of Alfie Haaland--read somewhat differently in the book from the way they did in the papers. Make no mistake about it, Keane is frank about his own failings, franker about the failings of others and prepared to spill the beans to some extent about being the odd-man-out in the Old Trafford glam-fest. But this is very much his side of the story. --Alex Hankin--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
