@alancaw @Nialler6767 The Bundesliga seems to be able to manage fan ownership and commercial investment. I know it’s on a different scale but I think we need to look to Europe for models rather than accross the pond.

For me it's all about Sligo Rovers, Celtic, Tina, Keila and Naoise. Not necessarily in that order!

@alancaw @Nialler6767 When Co-Op came into play first it was an essential survival mechanism for the club and supported massively by local people.That Rovers would never have been appealing to an outside investor. As it stands now a professional club with recent European history- a different dynamic.

Great thread here with Jessica. Model of club being discussed it seems, phenomenal effort just to be competing but it can’t & won’t last forever with just good will & fundraising sadly. Spoke about it recently on Ocean Fm.

Sligo Rovers AGM underway. Assistant Manger Ryan Casey addresses attendees. Goes through challenges, positives etc. Accepts it hasn’t worked out for striker Mai Traore, says several deals fell through for centre-forward in Jan/Feb. Thanks committee & volunteers for work

'Shine' a documentary on Sligo Rovers the team from a town where football is king on the northwestern edge of Europe

@brianmcgowanire @DslSligo @ConnachtYouth @FcTubber This is an unofficial page commenting on and supporting Sligo/Leitrim football not an official page.
English
@DslSligo @ConnachtYouth @FcTubber That's rich coming from Sligo Leitrim. Two years ago Yeats United were forced to concede their U16 league final because @DslSligo refused to refix the game despite agreement from both clubs on an alternative date and venue. People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.

@ConnachtYouth are clearly not dealing with the best interest of kids football.Have down the years shown no flexibility or understanding particularly towards clubs in the north of the province.Surely it’s time they showed common sense . Fair play to @FcTubber for calling them out
English
@goconnor1 @BitORedPod Well done Gerry - a brilliant shift put in. Fair play to you. 👏👏

My time with BORST has come to an end. Lots achieved, community work, improvements to Showgrounds & 100s of thousands raised for Rovers
Despite all that, the Baby Jersey initiative with SUH is the highlight. I'll be continuing with @BitORedPod & away travel
KEEP THE FAITH. RTID❤️

@cfc1888_ Paul Byrne was worse. Lived off a belter against Rangers

@terenuretwit @Cambl85 @spicebag619 Would you call them useless Japanese arseholes - if you thought Maeda or Hatate has a bad game. You are now insulting Irish people because you don’t like a JK or Scales?
English
I can’t believe Johnny Kenny, Liam Scales, and Adam Idah caused Celtic to lose to Rangers. 100% on them and all the other Irish players and absolutely no one else’s fault.
English
More Sligo and Celtic connections. Would have done a good job for us today at centre half!
English
Always great to see enduring Sligo and Celtic connections. Thought I was lost in Glasgow earlier with all these familiar Sligo Pubs! Hon the Hoops!

@Nialler6767 I have a spare half and half - will sort you out first home game. 🇮🇪

@ShaneWard73 We'll try not to hold that against him

@mcginleygolf Very sorry to hear this Paul. My dad was in Saint Eunans with your Dad and always remembered Mick as a tidy footballer. He loved catching up every year at the West back in the day too. May he Rest in Peace.
English
We lost Dad today after a long battle with Dementia.Could not have asked for a better mentor, friend and Dad. We are all broken hearted and sad 💔🙏

@stephebissett This post says more about you than it does about him. A young player doing his best and you call him out.
English
@Nialler6767 I don’t really see it but you forgot one Irish lad who got it harder than most was Shane Duffy!
English
@ShaneWard73 No, but O'Neill had cemented his reputation 2 decades before the anti-Irish sentiment took hold
Fingal, Ireland 🇮🇪 English
The anti-Irish sentiment amongst Celtic fans runs deep. Neil Lennon, Brendan Rodgers, James McCarthy , Adam Idah, Liam Scales, Johnny Kenny.
As a fan base they've been relentless this past few years. Disappointing and disgusting
k_07@K_h__1888
Johnny Kenny isn’t good enough let’s be honest. Yes he’s got a not half bad goal record this season but he’s nowhere near good enough for us. Hes st Mirren or Motherwell quality. Complete empty jersey most of the time

@Nialler6767 Ireland played a test friendly in Rugby on Saturday and if you did a voxpop in Sligo who played and who scored very few would know. Ask anyone on Monday about Sundays game and everyone knows. Thats facts.
English
😂😂 This is football country.
The Private School game was only filling a gap while we were in the doldrums. Not too many care at all about a fuking friendly against South Africa, let alone being obsessed with them.
Scrumming Flyhalf@scrumming_ten
I'm surprised that there hasn't been more media spice for the Ireland vs South Africa game Especially given how obsessed Irish fans are with the Springboks
Ireland 🇮🇪 English
@Nialler6767 To be fair I thought Paddy, Elding, Will showed some passion. Most of the rest didn’t seem to grasp the enormity of the game of maybe I’m wrong.
English
Can't wait to hear the Russell fanboy's excuses for that.
Sending out a team completely unmotivated for our most important match in years.
A fuking disgrace by the manager and the shower of fuking wasters that he signed

@savo01 @_footyheritage @secondtierpod Came here to say that. Others like Ian Wright/Juninho played a few games at least.

Who's the most famous player that everyone forgets played for your club? 😅

@DonaghOates @SligoRoversAcad @mayoleague @LeagueofIreland @SeismicGK Reaction and follow-up save is even better Donagh!!!

He's at it again... another great penalty save from Donagh Jr. @SligoRoversAcad U14's vs @mayoleague 🔴⚪️⚽️❤️👏👏👏 @LeagueofIreland @SeismicGK
