More Than a Game: The GAA and where it's Going
About this ebook
Is the GAA still a grassroots, amateur movement? Or has it become a machine for elite competition, real estate development and media influence?
Acclaimed journalist Michael Moynihan exposes the real forces reshaping the GAA, from under-the-table payments and controversial stadium deals to fixture chaos and the impact of pop concerts. Thoughtful and unflinching, he reveals an organisation grappling with its identity and why the outcome matters to every parish, player and supporter in Ireland.
'Michael is rooted in the GAA but never bound by it. He sees our games and Association through a unique and unflinching lens. For anyone who loves the GAA and Irish sport, this book is essential reading.' Donal Óg Cusack
'No one writes about the GAA like Michael Moynihan.' Pat Spillane
