The Northern Irishman has written a book about the psychological strengths needed to become a successful professional football player, entitled The Stupid Footballer is Dead.

McVeigh will be signing copies of his debut book at Jarrolds, in London Street, on Saturday, July 6, between 11am and 1pm.

He will then also be giving a talk about the book and signing copies at the Waterstones store, in Castle Street, from 7.30pm on Wednesday, July 10.

Tickets for the Waterstones talk are £3, including a glass of wine, but the Jarrolds signing is free.

At both events only copies of the book bought from the relevant store, or with an accompanying receipt, will be signed.
