Paul McGuinness (born 17 June 1951) is the main shareholder and founder of Principle Management Limited, a popular music act management company based in Dublin, in the Republic of Ireland. He was the Manager of the highly successful band U2 from 1978 to 2013, and is the current manager of PJ Harvey, and the band The Rapture. He previously managed Paddy Casey.
Personal life
McGuinness was born in a British military hospital at Rinteln, Westphalia in Germany, his father, Philip McGuinness (a Liverpudlian) was serving there at that time with the Royal Air Force. His mother Sheila McGuinness née Lyne, was a schoolteacher from Lauragh, County Kerry, Ireland. There were three children in the family: Paul, Niall and Katy.
As a player, McGuinness was a midfielder who made 20 Football League appearances with Crewe Alexandra and Chester City. He also spent time with Manchester United (where he progressed through the youth ranks) and Bury without appearing in league games for them.
"This tour will be not unlike the last production in that the lowest priced tickets will be on the floor. The best seats are the cheapest, and we want people to get excited."
"We always said it would be pathetic to be good at the music and bad at the business."
"We thought it was an opportunity to be taken with both hands."
"It is that machine that they put together in Toronto that is really at the heart of Arthur's operation. They are the best in the world at what they do."
"[It has worked for U2 for 10 years.] By the mid-'90s, ... our touring was getting very big, and even though we had had very healthy relationships with very good agents . . . the game had changed and the sums of money involved were far too big to address our touring in a piecemeal way, transaction by transaction. We really needed to start working with a single tour promoter."
"They could easily have let things get on top of them against Sunderland. But they showed the fighting spirit that United teams are renowned for. We were really pleased with that."
"The music business has changed. Our recording income is not insignificant, but it's less than we make from touring. The figures used to be closer together."

Line Ball And End Zone Games | FA Learning Coaching Session From Paul McGuinness
In line ball games, players are simply tasked with getting the ball onto or over a line. Once they achieve this, they’re awarded a point or a goal – depending on your scoring system.
To create this type of game, all you need are a few cones to mark out an area – and a ball. With little equipment required and the fact you could use existing pitch lines to help you, set-up is very quick.
Another benefit of line ball games, which are commonly used in futsal and small group practices, is that they help players work on various skills. This includes their ability to pass and receive, create space and win the ball.

From Youth to Manchester United: Paul McGuinness
Growing up in the shadow of a football legend can shape you in ways beyond the ordinary. My guest, Paul, is a testament to this, having had his father's profound influence guide his early football journey. Pauls's experiences are a powerful exploration of football from its roots - the shared bond between teammates, fundamental lessons learned on and off the pitch, and the enriching encounters with football greats.
As we journeyed through Pauls's life, we found his stories from York to Manchester United utterly captivating. He delves into his transition from a professional contract player to a university student and then onto a coaching journey.
