<p>SHAY GIVEN is one of the game's good guys: An Irish hero and Premier League marathon man whose goalkeeping career has spanned three decades.  He has played in World Cups and FA Cup finals; shared a dressing room with football greats like Roy Keane, Alan Shearer and Robbie Keane and worked under celebrated managers like Kenny Dalglish, Bobby Robson and Martin O'Neill.  But Shay has had to show courage and strength of mind to get where he wanted in life. At four years old, he cruelly lost his mother to cancer at the age of just 41. Mum Agnes's dying wish was that Dad Seamus would keep the family together. Seamus kept his word and the Given clan watched with pride as Shay forged a record-breaking career in the sport he loved.  From Donegal to Saipan, Glasgow to Wembley and Tyneside to Paris, it's been some journey. Shay has seen it all. Glorious highs and desperate lows. Dressing room wind-ups and team-bonding punch-ups. Brutal injuries and crippling self-doubt.  Along the way, he has made so many friends. When one of his closest pals Gary Speed died suddenly in 2011, he was devastated. He played on, doing the only thing he knew to get him through the pain pulling on a shirt and a pair of gloves. Shay loves football for him, nothing can beat the buzz of a Saturday afternoon or the thrill of a big match night under lights. But he has never lost touch with the fans who make the game what it is.  Entertaining, opinionated and inspirational, his autobiography ANY GIVEN SATURDAY features a stellar cast of famous football names from the past 25 years. It tugs at the heart strings, bubbles with banter and lets slip secrets behind the big stories. This is a rare journey behind the scenes as told by one of our own. Paperback version of the best-selling autobiography that was nominated for the Bord Gais Energy Irish Sports Book of the Year 2017. </p>
