well its either miss the Q&A or miss the Waterford game as far as work is concerned..:(..i know sligoman, i have it tough!Q & A will probably be more entertaining than Waterford game to be fair:D.

[feo123]

[Rory H]

he wanted to do it for a while so should be good. The direction of the club will dominate i'd say.....

[SligoBrewer]

yip..

could we maybe record the the session with a dictaphone or summit.
im sure there'll be a quote or a speech by cookie that'll be perfect for radio or for use when we're trying to look for money

[Rory H]

I'm sure the event will be reported on......

[sligoman]

The Panda will probably report on it anyway:D

[redtildead]

Id say its mostly to do with his comments in last weeks champion just to get feedback etc.

[Rovers1]

I'm sure the event will be reported on......

by a wonderful upcoming journalist..im sure! ;)

I'm barred not to mention out of the country!!

Hope it all goes well

[Rory H]

looking forward to it. hopefully gets the attendance it deserves

[feo123]

lookin forward to it aswell, hopefully it'll be on for a good while. damn all else to do

[Rovers fan]

very good meeting. Its clear that cookie is an honest passionate man and its the likes of him that we need to keep at the club. Basically what he had to say was the club needs a complete overhaul. He particularly highlighted the need for a youth system and a chief executive to run the club. He was p1ssed of about the condition of the pitch and he is totally right. It also came up that hughsies wife was abused by a rovers "fan". this is so stupid and as hughes is not yet gone it is not going to help to keep him. Again a lot of good ideas but they need to be put into operation. There is a need for new blood in the mangement committee. The end of season meal etc. is a fantastic idea. Not only will it raise money for the short term but they hope to entice businessmen to investing in the club on a longer term. It was clear that they feel a need for big changes and hopefully everybody can pull together to make this happen.

[feo123]

was an enjoyable night, got boring at times, some good ideas though, pity about the stupid argument, was uncalled for the way P.H went on about the voluntary thing, think he was looking for a pop at certain people. thick and arrogant of him.

cooky and carr were brilliant, open and honest with everything as always. there what this club need to progress

[SligoBrewer]

Cookie and Carr are the future of football in this town.
We should utilise them as much as possible, what a great public face of the club the 2 of them are.

[Rovers1]

many at it?

[sligoman]

many at it?25-30 or so. Poor enough turn-out but still, enjoyable and informative night. Best management duo we've had in years and it's important we work hard to keep them. Also, Cook stressed the importance of making Adam Hughes feel wanted at the club during the remaining few games and it might increase the chances of him staying.

[SligoBrewer]

flag for hughsie?

if someone can make one. please do.

[sligoman]

flag for hughsie?

if someone can make one. please do.Working on it.

[Sean South]

We got a load of material left over from the banner against Bohs we could make something for him out it. Don't know what you could put on it though

just something simple.

'hughesie dont leave or else this flag will be useless':D

[feo123]

just 'please stay hughsie'

[clubman]

The very reason Sligo Rovers will never progress beyond the point we are now at. Silly arguments, trivia, personal stuff. People like P.H. can't let go of the past. In order for the club to move forward we have to pull up the anchor. The anchor is huge in the case of Sligo Rovers and I don't think the crew are capable to budge it.

[sligoman]

Let's not blame just PH in fairness. TM was also childish with his response about taking it outside, playground stuff really:rolleyes:.

[Patrick Dunne]

I'm surprised that OD didn't wade in with a flurry of punches ! :eek:

[sligoman]

I'm surprised that OD didn't wade in with a flurry of punches ! :eek:OD has nothing to do with Sligo Rovers anymore.

[Shedzer]

just 'please stay hughsie'
You cant beg players to stay at a club. Most other clubs would have told him where top go after the Drogehda incident. If he wants to stay, he will, as a fan you expect him to play while hes here, which he didnt do against Drogheda, simple as. Iv no hate boiled up for him, its a pity it happened because hes a good player...we just cant afford to keep him, its unfortunate.

But you'l be wiping you arse with them flags in a few months when hes gone, because its what is going to happen...

don't post things like that if you don't know what you're talking about. the "drogheda incident" was 100% genuine.do you think he would actually be playing for the club now if it wasn't.i know for a fact it was genuine.hughsie is an honest lad,is one of da best trainers,is a model professional and has always given a 100% for sligo rovers,so it annoys me when people like yourself,that obviously don't know the lad decide to hang him out to dry without even knowing the facts.
