New book for Christmas

Hi guys,

My new book on Gaelic Football tactics over the last 12 months, Victory Loves Preparation, is out now. It's €15 and you can get it one of three ways...

1. Order it online here: [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

2. Come to the launch in Kilmacud Crokes on Thursday the 28th of November.

3. Drop me a PM and meet me in Dublin.

Ebook version will be available soon, I'll update when it is.

Thanks,
Emmet

Fair play Emmet but, with all this free advertising, many a man like you would be donating a signed copy to the forum (to be awarded to the winner of last summer's Tipster contest, perhaps).

Done but let's make it for something which hasn't been won yet. I'm open to suggestions.

Good man Emmet! GAAFan and RMD are the power brokers, so perhaps they can suggest an idea?

Alternatively, we could play cyber hide-and-seek, and whoever finds GAAFan wins the prize…

Again, a very nice gesture Emmet, and hopefully we get some good suggestions for a contest to take us through next couple of weeks.

No-one's come up with an idea so I'll go for easy one.

This weekend's Ulster club football final, guess the total number of points scored (counting a goal as 3 points) in the game.

Must have prediction posted before throw-in, one guess per person, if someone's already picked the number you want tough ****, in the case of a draw I'll flip a coin.

Good luck with the book Emmet. Here I'll take a stab at 24 points for the sake of it.

A generous offer Emmet. I'll go higher at 26 - Ulster football has entered a new, attacking age.

Nice gesture Emmet - i will push the boat out even further and go for 31 pts

32.

Finally, a thread that Loyal feels is worthy of a post  

And the winner, by the narrowest of margins is TC. Message me your postal address.

Maths clearly not Emmet's strong suit........

1-13 = 16 plus 2-6 = 12. 16 + 12 = 28. TC's 26 was 1 closer than the 31 guessed by bocerty.

Emmet's counting is spot on - I've messaged my postal address, and am looking forward to a good read over the christmas period.

Thanks again Emmet, for a very generous prize.

Not my fault if RTE radio in the car says 1-14 to 2-06.....That's my excuse anyhow.

Apologies Emmet....

What?!?!? How have i missed this?!?! The amount of plugging i give Emmet on Twitter you'd think i'd get a signed copy too!!!! Instead i have to make do with arguing with Ballinderry men on twitter about the facilities in London!!

Don't be too upset Beagle, book yet to arrive, and Emmet appears to have done a runner. Looks like being a cold christmas for me….

Went in the post in Friday TC. Sorry about the delay

Thanks Emmet, looking forward to it!

When you have a minute, glance at the podcasts thread as we are hoping for a bit of technical advice from you…

Done!

Shiny new copy of 'Victory Loves Preparation' by Emmet Ryan came through the letterbox this morning!

Really looking forward to getting stuck into it over the holidays, so a huge 'thank you' to Emmet for his generosity.

Great stuff. Congrats again TC.

Well TC, what was it like?

TCs silence can only mean one thing in this regard......
