You might want to check out the league attendances before you start telling City fans about "biggest supporter bases in the league." :rolleyes:

No, I think it's fairly clear that he used the word "biggest." :rolleyes:

Sure I suppose you've got nothing else to do up there anyway when the Sheep Shearing season is closed.

yeah possibly a little bit of delusion alright there from jstuff but I have to say as a more realistic Sligo romantic myself that Sligo Rovers are certainly the best supported club on Foot.ie :)

Also fancy them at 2/1 with gamebookers away to Kildare this weekend - nice odds considering we are near top and unbeaten away from home - let's be 'aving ye!

Mind you, Cork CFC are nicely priced at 5/4 to win in Waterford too... how about the double at nearly 6/1?

The mountainey men of Donegal might be just a bit too fond of manly sheep grappling to be bothered about shearing machines. Da real rover being a townie mightn't know anything about that I would guess... the Sligo townies are very similar to the Cork ones I have found... even use similar expressions like sham and steamer

:D

hey theres more than 1 S Rovers... be careful which Rovers u mention around here ;)

but yes I have to admit I had a chuckle when I hear the 9 point news, they were always our arch rivals, being the other rovers. Any other Sligo men really ****ed off when they hear all this immediate assumption that Rovers means Shams rather than the bit o' red?

so what is it with foot.ie forums and sligo and cork fans?

by far the most punters are from both places - hmmm...incidentally 2 of the best towns in the country for soccer and craic, so maybe its no coincidence :D

adams from cork, hence the big cork following, and sligo rovers use the foot.ie message board as their club one.

considering they use it as their club forum, 52 is pretty small.

But what is really surprising is that there are 52 computers in Sligo. I reckon there being flogged down the market yard if you get a carpet. :D

Well i was always going to agree with you about Cork ... but Sligo is a great spot it has to be said. Really good night life there i thought ... good craic in the pubs and clubs, definitely a must for a good night out.
