Triggs: The Autobiography of Roy Keane's dog by Triggs Triggs

'This is no ordinary football autobiography. And it's not some saccharine-sweet love story about a man and his beloved pooch. I was no Marley. And God knows, Roy was no John Grogan.'
'As fascinating as it is funny and moving.. If you love football you have to read this, obviously, book' * Irish Times *
'To read an account of Man Utd and Ireland's greatest player of the past 20 years from the perspective of his trusty canine companion is certainly a surprise, but still a delightful one, with Howard's well-honed comedic talents providing laughs aplenty.' * Hot Press *
'This is no ordinary book. Just a strange, unusual and thoroughly enchanting one which will leave the reader baffled and bemused but thoroughly entranced. (...) an absolute, if complicated, joy to behold' * Irish Independent *
'Will have you in stitches' * Connacht Sentinel *
'Hilariously frank' * Four Four Two *
'A modern classic' * The Irish Post *

Triggs is an adult female Labrador Retriever who has been described as 'Roy Keane's best friend and side-kick' and 'the most famous dog in football'. A well-known figure in the Hale and Altringham areas, Triggs came to international attention in the summer of 2002, when she accompanied Roy Keane on his famous walks around Greater Manchester after he ws sent home from the World Cup by Ireland manager Mick McCarthy. Despite offers of book deals involving seven-figure advances, Triggs has always kept her silence about her life with Manchester United's greatest ever captain ... until now.

Paul Howard is a former Irish Sports Journalist of the Year, a two-time Irish Book Award winner and the creator
of the cult character, Ross O'Carroll-Kelly.
