To mark the opening of the new League of Ireland Season, we are proud to feature ‘There’s only One Red Army’. This is Eamonn Sweeney’s personal account of his love affair with Sligo Rovers.
It is the best book ever written on Irish soccer. The author follows the fortunes of Sligo Rovers up to 1994. The players were a motley crew of rejects from the English and Scottish leagues helping the club to its greatest ever season.
The stories are brilliantly told in a funny and poignant way. This is a must-have book for any football fan.
