Watched it the other night. Very good. Great insight into McCarthy getting rid of him and him talking about the final minutes of the Italy Giants Stadium game.
Also, very sad when talking about the death of his mother and how she died alone due to covid restrictions.
A modest player who never really knew how good he was. Might have done with a decent Agent in the beginning.
His autobiography "Back from the brink" has been nominated for the Sports Book Awards Best Sports Book of the 21st Century so far

Bumped into Paul McGrath on the outskirts of Wexford town today. He looks incredibly well and hardly seems to have aged at all. My mate went up for a pic with him which, of course, he was happy to do.
