Why did we loan him?

[The Stars]

Can anyone come up with an explaination as to why we loaned Ian Rossiter.
He plays for the worst team in the Premier league and is regaurded as one of their worst players.When he left the club he was told he had no future at the club and we can now see why.His preformance tonight was the worst I have seen by any Rovers player this season.At one stage in the match he was walking after his man(you may remember it in the second half when the old fellow got the ball of him in the corner) and when people started voice their opinons towards him he had time to nod and smile at them,despite the fact we were 2-0 down and desperate for a goal.This shows both his lack of concentration and total lack of ability and fitness.
We all know that Gallagher is nothing great but of what I've seen he is twice the player Rossiter is.

No way, Gallagher is not a good as Rossiter. Fair enough Rossi is not great but he is not as bad as Philly

i want purcy in the team,not just cos he's a mate but because he's way better than either of those two.

Philly and Rossiter are both sh!te and dont deserve to stand near a football pitch. Neither of them are suitable options.

Im having trouble seeing him as one man as he covers so much ground.

Please give Philip Gallagher a break. Do you think these kind of insults help him or the club?

No, but do you think he helps the club? :confused:

Maybe its just me but for so called fans ye are very critical of Rossitor,He may not have been the best player on the pitch but he was definitely not the worst.He covered alot of ground all night and got in some good cross's.As for concentration he was the only player to react to the refferees decision not to give Mc T somthing when challenged by the Keeper.As for reacting to the crowd,more mouth piece's who think supporting a team is to abuse them.As for Rossitor leaving the club, was that decision not made by our then caretaker Manager.Dont like Rossitor,dont like Gallagher ,Purcell is gone could always put Cretaro back there again and lose his creative ability going forward again or maybe just not bother playing a right back at all but then ye would have nothing to whinge about! Sorry but then again there is A squad of players there to find fault with!

Yes I do think he helps the club! as things stand he provides us with cover. Philip since he was a young lad has been recognised as being a talented player and in my opinion you don't become a bad player that quickly. He may or may not be experiencing a lack of form at the moment but the needless abuse he takes is I think unnecessary. Don't get me wrong everybody is entitled to their opinion but abusing/insulting our own players is counter productive. Nobody can dispute but that Philip always gives 100% where as with some players this may not always be the case.

[roversforever]

i don't agree with shouting abuse at gallagher and i acknowledge that he does his best.however the fact remains that he is simply not good enough for sligo rovers.

He was blessed to play with good players! Dolan/marshall/cawley/martin/mcginley/summers/flannery/conlon/o grady
now tere is some good players and phil played sweeper in that collage team!
I do agree he will allways give his best! but if your not good enough you have to be man enough to say so!

Wait a minute your comparing Low with Rossi, no i still cant comprehend Rossi ever, ever being better than Low, even when Low plays sh!te. Also did Mickey make Rossiter kiss the Harps crest and did he force him to vow his undying love for them. No he didnt he did that himself so he can stay in Balleybofey. I dont want the scraps from there table.

Ya Lowe wasn't at his best but at least he won tackles and tried to defend.
Dont even try to convince me that Rossiter atempted to defend in the second half.I was sitting down near where he was playing and he was more concentrated on making gestures towards the fans and getting on to the ref than defending.He was actually just standing looking at their left winger when he ran past him and made no attempt to make up for his mistake.
