Description

Told through the experiences of a Dublin Gaelic football fan and a number of players from the team of the early 1990s, this is the story of the long, hot, dry summer of Dublin’s last All-Ireland winning season in 1995. Through feelings of joy, terror, dread, and hope, it brilliantly captures the roller coaster of emotions experienced in every match. From shouting at television screens to standing on terraces in the blazing sun, from Navan to Washington, DC, and on to Croke Park, it paints a vibrant picture of the desperate search for tickets and the foul-mouthed, good-humored banter that takes place between rival supporters. Most of all, it recounts the sense of comradeship and anxiety among the fans as they sing, shout, and roar for their team. Summertime Blues tells how the Dublin team of the early 1990s strove, ever more desperately, to win the championship title that always seemed within their potential but just beyond their grasp. Set against the backdrop of the tentative beginnings of the Irish economic boom, this book chronicles the season, from Jason Sherlock’s famous stocking-foot goal against Laois, through the epic Leinster final battle with Meath, to its climax in what was one of the most controversial and talked-about All-Ireland finals of modern times.
