    Well Done Sligo Fans

    I was working at the game last night and have to say the sligo fans were great. They sang for the whole match and did not stop once. There was no trouble or fans on the pitch even thought there was about 2000 fans in the ground. This is how fans should be and fans of other clubs would do well to learn from the sligo fans

    Well we always sing for 90 minutes.Derry do,Cork aswell,Rovers at away matches....most do!
    I know what you're saying.There's plenty of times this year when we've been brillaint and there's no better feeling at the end of the game knowing you've been a credit to your club.Like for us Rovers away twice etc.Well done to yee anyway!

    One of the points I was making is that there was no trouble and no fans on the pitch when any of the goals were scored or at full time. Unlike other teams in our league

    It's only a marginally smaller achievment than scoring against Athlone.

    That's a lie, ye were ridiculosly quite in Limerick for all but twenty minutes.

    Very few games have fans singing for the duration, fairplay Sligo, credit where it's due and all that

    So where does throwing flares onto the pitch, as well as a pitch invasion after scoring an equaliser come into your reckoning?
    I have scattered my dreams underneath your feet, tread carefully, cos it's my dreams you walk on.

    That's wonderful, any chance you can sing for UCD tonight? I hear they're a bit shorthanded for the derby game.

    Your lying again Conor, typical of the Galway lies on here

    Feel free to reply, I'm not going to bother getting into another childish tit for tat though so you can consider this my final word on topic: Galway fans do not sing for 90 minutes at every game = FACT.

    Coming from a fan who denied stones were thrown at GUFC fans.3 fans buddy on their wasy out said it was brillaint all through the match.Sour grapes evident here for sure.

    Funny how the only thing guaranteed to get someone going off on a wobbler on this forum more than their team being slagged off is a positive comment about someone else's team.
    "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."
