JIM MCGUINNESS WAS ON the Late Late Show on Friday night.
The former Donegal manager gave a heartfelt interview to Ryan Tubridy in Montrose, more often than not away from what took place on the sidelines where he guided his native county to the 2012 All-Ireland championship and three Ulster titles in his four years in charge.
McGuinness, who launched his book ‘Until Victory Always’ the previous night in his hometown Glenties, spoke on a variety of topics that shaped his life, from football to family and friends.
The reaction on social media was hugely positive, so here’s some of the feedback from Twitter.

That Jim McGuinness interview gives a hell of a lot of meaning to the title of his book. Utter conviction since he was 12 #latelateshow
