Yea dude it was live on tg4. I don't think a lot of the guys/gals that post here will be too pleased regarding the result, a 1-1 draw, when a win was definitely possible tonight.

Not good news folks:

Been reading the link Gillie, it is really bad, far worse than anyone would have predicted. Makes me think of all the great work that Johnny Chadda did regarding raising finances for the club. The pitch itself is a disgrace, goodness knows how it passed an FAI inspection. €130,000 needed between now and the end of August, what's going to happen next if it is found? They will still need further money to keep their head above water for the coming season ahead. (should Rovers make it that far)

Obviously you dont go to the Showgrounds because the pitch has greatly improved. Pay 15 euro into the Harps match on Saturday night and you will get to see for yourself.

DenMan

That's great news man. I was just thinking about what a few managers where saying at the start of the season when their teams came down to play and they commented on it. Might have been Shels or Pats. Glad it has improved. Nice one.

Jabby

Where in the name of the Almighty are they going to get €130,000 between now and then...any ideas?

Mint Sauce

hopefully get as big as crowd as possible this weekend, looks like they need all the pennys they can get, i know one match wont get all the money, but they all count

was reading some of the info regarding the finances on the rovers website earlier, sorry no link,

btw, greet work on the pitch, looked alot better during the lengends and derry match

good luck the bit o red

So would I. What is Ronaldinho looking for a week, €200,000. I am sure we could come to a compromise.

Maybe Argos (there I said the word!) might bale rovers out as a good will gesture to the people of Sligo, after finally getting a foot hole in the town... A donation that is.

Mint Sauce

quite interested in the syndicate idea my self, might look into it a bit more when i head to the match this weekend

tbh, we can help, as many bums in seats for the rest of the season, although small, would go some of the way

Seeing as I no longer moderate this forum I think it may be safe to post a comment here again without being accused of everything except murder by certain sad and pathetic individuals.

Might be there on Saturday. Im struggling a wee bit at the moment with an old knee injury but if its cleared by Saturday and nothing else happens me I will do my best to make Mooneys. Cant guarantee I'd go to the match as there may be more fun in the pub
