He's playing for nobody

he was offered more or less nothing from rovers

The same as he gave Rovers last season, so.

Where are all those lads (you know who you are!!) that were exclaiming we had to stand by Butler last season - whilst letting other players go/shifting them on - even though they were also on contracts but could actually play for the club. Oh when Butler comes back he will be great - me b*(&^%$#.

Oh and those that came up with what they perceived as being funny little ditty on drink driving for Chris - they obviously have never been at the scene of a drink driving accident or A and E after such an accident or had a family/friend injured or killed as a result of such an accident as if they had they would not see the supposed funny side.

For God's sake will ye think about that this Christmas if anyone is considering taking the car keys after a few drinks - don't do it.

Nice to see loyalty from the club and those fans who backed Chris (not I) repaid in spades - NOT.

1. The drink driving was never proved and no charges were brought.
2. Other players that left under contract did so because a mutial agreement between the club and the individual player was agreed.
3. Similar to Cashie, the player didnt want to leave and was under contract so was kept on.

If he has left, its a dirty fu**in act and probably tells us more about how bad he himself thinks his injury actually is, then what we are hearing, if he was fully fit and though he could last a season he would take a pay-per-play contract.

I can't set up a new thread on this as i am only a new member, but I don't see any body talking about approaching local players from the Sligo/Leitrim, Mayo league, Donegal league and more players from the Sligo IT team. Is there anyone from the club looking for local talent that could help boost the squad at low cost.

Are you for real? The club hardly relies on how bad or good "HE HIMSELF THINKS HIS INJURY IS"
I'm sure they have up to date medical reports. IF those reports suggest he is suspect, then they were right to offer him a pay-per-play option.
If he turned that offer down, it's because he see's the gravy train pulling out:(

In fairness to Butler, he has a young son in England and only get's to see him every couple of months. It's not as easy as "he just fecked off back to England the ungrateful ****".

Bare that in mind when going off calling him for all the ***** in the world

Cheers for confirming it Roo. As with every new player, I hope he does well, always stood out head and shoulders above the rest for Bray this season, and looked decent since getting first team action with Bray. Is their any link where it has been confirmed ?

Butler wants to stay.

he cant live off a couple of hundred euro a week. he has a child to support. bottom line is he wants to stay with us, so until ye know the full story ont bother coming on bad mouthing him. he's been training harder than any player all season to get back to fitness, he could have played reserve games for the last few weeks of the season but the club didnt register him

Personally, if its true, I think its a disgrace that Butler was only offered a pay per play contract. The man has a son to support and depends on football as his only income. What if he picked up a injury during the season and missed 2 or 3 games?? He'd have no income for weeks. Ya can't honestly expect someone in Butlers position to accept that. Feel sorry for him as the club have put him in an awful position. Assuming what has been said is true of course.

Lets just pay players by how many kids they have.
So you think the club were right in offering him that contract?:confused:

Yeah,why not?At least until he's proven he can play.We owe this guy nothing,we've already stood by him for a year when he didn't play a single game.If he can prove he's over his injury then improve his contract.Wheather he has kids or not is irrelevant,of course i feel sorry for him but sligo rovers have to think as a business.Money is scarce enough,we can't afford to making decisions because of players personal circumstances.As i said let him play on pay per play until we've seen he's over the injury and then review the situation.

Why not? He hasn't kicked a ball in a year and during which time the club, like every other, is struggling for money they stood by him after he had his car accident. He can't question Rovers over whether they want him or not after all of that. It's up to him to prove if he's good enough and/or fit enough then

i can see both sides of the arguement, we spent enought time, commitment, funds and energy on him last year we have to follow it through or it was all for nothing but even he himself should be glad of any sort of a contract after we stood by him, and all this bull about nothing proven about his accicent. wake up we all know what happened and no one can stand by and say ha ha it was just a bit of fun. it was a stupid act in which could have caused hurt to innocent people
. he should be offered a monthly contract and he should be happy to take it. the club stood by him all last year and took a chance on him, now its time for him to take a chance with a part time contract with us. if he believes in his abilities and thinks he is back to his best he should have no problem accepting a monthy contract !!!

The way the FAI contracts are, there is no such thing as a month to month or a pay as you play I believe. From what Im told Chris's professional registration was cancelled at the end of season 08 but he remained employed by the Club at a good wage during the close season and last season. He was not fit at the last window so was not registered but the Club remained loyal. He was made an offer for this year on a similar basis but refused it on the basis that he wanted a full pro highly paid contract. Don't think the Club were prepared to take a chance until he proved his fitness.

gunther goswallop has being mentioned again. cook is bringing him over in the new year. i was probably premature with my anticipation of him making an apperance last season. but from my very good source there is no doubt that he will be with the rovers next season. he scored 45 goals for harrow town in the diamond blue north league last season and he can fairly wallop the ball !

Murphy is ok but think he is suspended for first 7 games , Murray is class , don't know much about harris but apparently Cork players were left high and dry for wages again 2 days before Xmas so expect a big exodus from there , thought it was a **** take at first but apparently Shoddy is appointed as Cork new boss god help them.

We have a beter chance coming second with the 7 or 8 players we have now. We can easily come second with Keane and Peers, Murray IS a very poor defender,he's strong and he hoofs all day long, that should be his epitaph

Baffled how anyone can come on and say Murray is a very poor defender. One of the best defenders in the league for the past few seasons. The equaliser wouldn't have happened in the cup final if it had been him involved and not Keane
