Triggs

the long version

Meet Triggs - TV lover, hypochondriac, noted wit, football genius and best friend to the most talked-about footballer of his generation. Whether leading Manchester United to the Treble or telling Mick McCarthy to shove the World Cup up his bollocks, Roy was seldom out of the news. For more than ten years, through good times and bad, he could always rely on his friendship with his ever faithful Labrador retriever, Triggs. Their walks became the stuff of rolling news legend. But what did they talk about on all those famous days when they took the air while being chased by a media pack? And - at the end of the day - who was really walking who? Now, in his own words, Roy Keane's dog tells the extraordinary story of their friendship and reveals his part in the glories and controversies that marked his master's career.
