of all Eircom League players is money, they all have their price.
Its very naive of supporters to say that they love the club, etc. All players at Galway United would play for Sligo Rovers if the price was right, the reverse is also true.

Right on the button there. Raf has his price, he obviously thought there were better conditions in Galway or rovers just baulked at his requests. Either way he is gone. Some of our best players have left the club, but they are still able to come back to us.
Character assasinations on Raf are not particularly helpful and as you say very naive of supporters to think that just because he is from sligo that he should stay with the rovers for all his career.
Raf has been our most consistent and dare I say most successful player over the past 5 years. And yet people still discredit raf on his decision to go to another club. THIS IS THE WAY FOOTBALL HAS GONE.
Did we call O'Grady a greedy for leaving us for Cork ,money grapping was he?
Raf I have no doubt will return to this club , one thing Raf will always have is that he is from Sligo, and will always be supported by true supporters whatever team he plays with.
good luck raf at Galway Utd.
in radisson yesterday story was that wanted the same money as full time players but he wanted only part time :

i have a feeling he wont be there tho
Lads relax... Raf will not be playing it was part of the agreement when he signed!
I can understand when you lose your best player but you argue that he was demanding mad wages and i dont know if thats true but he has decided to join a team in a division lower maybe because his looking at his long term prospects. We are delighted that he has joined GUFC and maybe he is also thinking about another year in the 1st DIVISION AND HOW GOOD IT MAY BE FOR HIM BEFORE HE GOES UP TO THE PREMIER.Quote:

well hes not really askin for that much in wages he was lookin for 500 a week surely thats not much considering that fat ******* foy is on 800..
500 a week could easily be closer to a grand by the time the club pays tax and PRSI etc on it! 800 a week is absolutely savage money.Quote:
