Why cant Sligo fans just accept that they are known as Sligo and Shamrock Rovers are known, more often than not, as Rovers? Whats the big deal, its not gonna change, no matter how many times you type it differently on the internet!

yea, top class player IF he could avoid the injuries. Excellent signing if he gets a decent run of gamesQuote:

Shamrock Rovers fans don't go on about it at all. It's just very childish Sligo fans on here who constantly post ridiculous and unhelpful stuff about 'Rovers'. It really is cringeworthy to see variations on the following time and time again;Quote:

It doesn't wind up Shamrock Rovers fans, at all, it's just crigneworthy.
I thought it was obvious by this stage...Quote:

Grand so, going forward rovers means Sligo - to avoid confusion. perhaps we could have a competition to come up with an alternative name for shams ?Quote:

Nobody cares.
Can we get back on topic?
Twice a year, as they do in Inchicore, Oriel Park, Terryland, United Park, Dalymount and so on. They play their home games in the Tallaght Stadium though.Quote:

Shamrock Rovers seemed very confident of him being announced as their player on Monday, but not a word out of them since? Still training with us, apparantly.
A few trialists lining out for Shels tonight. Mark Duggan, Alan Kearney, Ian Ryan, Jack Flynn, and Keith Quinn (former Sheff Utd??).
Add 'Rovers' to the swear filter, it might help.
strong rumours from richmond park that we signed dave mulcahy
It was in one for the papers yesterday that he has goen back to ye.Quote:

In other rumors theres talk of the long going big pre season transfer news which has hit the headlines bigger than Ronaldo to Madrid that we will today FINALLY seal Cummins signature. Heres hoping anyway.
Gareth O'Connor lined out for the Drogs last night...didnt really do anything exciting!

If there are any further developements, we will let you all know.
Shams will have to cough up I'm afraid.

They have to really. Even though it is not an FAI/FIFA recognised contract it is still a legally binding contract and thus the same rules apply about the breach of said contract about reimbersment etc.Quote:

If you can't register him on the contract that he has signed and he refuses to sign another contract, would the club be willing to keep paying him to sit in the stands?Quote:

Monies owed from Turners wages will at least be expected to repaid. There is a rumour of a transfer fee as well. Needs to sorted quickly so Cookie can free up Turners wages for new players.
And there is the crux of the matter.Quote:
