Synopsis : Eamonn Sweeney in "There's Only One Red Army", shows us a family held together by their devotion to a football team, Sligo Rovers. To say that they were held together is not quite accurate, since his parents' marriage did not last, but the team was the common denominator, the subject on which all the family could agree and which was the only thing to draw them together. It is possible for this book to be enjoyed by those with only a limited interest in football in general and Sligo Rovers in particular, revealing as it does a combination of humour and sadness and a notable honesty.
