"Even if the wind stops to blow
Even if the sea ceases to flow
Even if the sun ceases to rise
The name of Sligo Rovers will shine and shine forever like the morning star glittering in the sky."
Whoever gives him the most money, Raf will sign for.
it amazes me here jow people wont have a bad word said bout ventre and ryan but raf is the worst in the world for bettering himself. fair enough he is a local lad and the people love him but its not that long ago he was pushed outta the club like a bad rash !!! he jumped at the chance to come back, then this season cook changes his role and also his mentality . if ya wanna blame someone for his head its cook to blame so !!!
cook changed him from the blinkhorn role to an out and out striker playing on the defenders shoulder and his sole role was to score goals ! not chase defenders and win headers.
he has the season of his life and gets his head turned. it happens the best of them. for all ye ventre worshippers if ye think that if danny had the season of his life at 28 and got the chance of going for a title he wouldnt take it, well then wake up!!!
easy for most here to say its all about money well for anyone saying that all i can say is have ye mortgages to pay...... we are all disappointed to see him leave but he has been a model servant until now but continue to live in yer bubble and use your selective memory.
be glad for a local lad to go on to a better club and a better life and before people jump down my throat shams are better, huge budget and fine stadium and a real chance of silverware and doing well in europe. i hate to see him leave but im not gonna turn on him now when he has been our best and most commited players for years![]()
Was browsing through via New Posts and saw this and mistook it for a thread on the current Liverpool manager being hired by the Shams. Presumably backed by a conglomeration of Bohs fans.
Good player for ye, and a shame he's going to Dublin, but as posters here have said, it's a full time job for him, and the bills have to be paid. Who was he with before ye?
That question was less stupid, though you asked it in a profoundly stupid way.
Help me, Arthur Murphy, you're my only hope!

U shouldn't be allowed in the showgrounds. God i'm angry, sorry if i'm ranting a bit, it's just the begrudgery is horrible
Frankly, Raf was being ridden by Rovers as to wages vis a vis someone like Boco and it's not surprising that he leaves. However, how he will cope without being the big fish in the small pond is debatable and the second point is that if he has similar offers from Bohs and Shams, he should go to Bohs as Pat Fenlon is the better coach, Bohs play the better football and he will not totally alienate Sligo fans - which he will if he goes to LFL.
Sadly I think he will go but we could still see him playing for the BOR next season - I think that rovers will up their offer and unless RAF wants glory he may stay as the 120 mile distance is a bit daunting although he did 70 regularly to galway!
He should go to bohs if he does leave as he might agravate his cup final neck injury looking up at the ball flying past him for shams!
Ah grow up for god sake, played with knocks , thats what he is payed to do, gavin peers played the final with a cast on his arm, how many times has peers been carried off on a stretcher and came back on, thats the type of player i would concentrate on keeping. If he wants to go good bloody luck to him dean marshall will fill the void no problem. As for begrudgery you couldn't be further from the truth, going to a club where you only get paid 42 weeks of the year, no thanks.
@knappaghred whatever ya think dude.......... sure u know it all !!!![]()
if rovers offered ya 1000 a week and shams 1250 and ya have a mortgage to pay...... with 1250 ya could easily pay 3000 a month of your mortgage and live on 500 a week. average mortgage 1000 a month so he can be paying his mortgage three times as fast as if he had a normal 500 euro a week job. get a 2 year contract and possibly he can pay 73k off his mortgage !!! i know what i be doing in a recession considering he has 3 good years left. times like these ya gotta think about your future and your family !!!
