Ulster Rugby book?

Post by Gael »

Is there such a thing as a book about Ulster Rugby, be it historical in nature or maybe a memoir of a season here or there? A friend has asked me and I honestly haven't a clue, though I strongly doubt it having not come across one myself.

Edmund Van Esbeck, A History of Irish Rugby. Don't think there is a comparable one for Ulster.

The was both a VHS & book about 1999 I have both but can't put my hand on the book to give details of publisher etc. The VHS isn't much good to me either, I no longer possess a player.
NEVER MOVE ON. Years on, I cannot ever watch Ireland with anything but indifference, I continue to wish for the imminent death of Donal Spring, the FIRFUC's executioner of Wee Paddy & Wee Stu, and I hate the FIRFUCs with undiminished passion.

The VHS was a decent little show

I have it converted to digital somewhere and will stick it on YouTube if I can remember where I have it stored

There was a book called "Champions" about the European cup win in 1999. It follows all the matches that season and does a profile on the players including Harry Williams. It sits in a pride of place on my bookcase.
If we're half as good in the next game as we were in the last game then we were twice as good in the last game as we will be in the next game.

Any chance of an ISBN?
