sure he didnt think he was good enough to go full time with us last season i doubt it is true TBH!

**Only1Rovers** · 23/12/2006, 7:15 PM

was talking to someone who knows Burns quite well a (player with another club), said burns was asked by the club if he would be interested in playing with rovers next season, Burns said he would and asked for the club to sit down with him and discuss it. What did the club do?????? F*CKING NOTHING.... So Burns did what any normal person would do. He left for an organization that treated him with some respect. What is going on? How could this be aloud to happen. There was a possibility that we could have held on to him, he even showed an interest and some commitment to the club, which as we are used to is hard to come by from players with his talent from outside of Sligo and surrounding area.

If this is the way the club treating players, we haven't a hope! Its outrageous.

Good luck Liam and thanks ...

Why do you think he was offered the same or less than other players ? I can only go on what i hear and from what i heard he was offered a very good deal and was given a date in which he had to make up his mind i dont think it being unreasonable that the manager wishes that he knows what players are staying, March is not the time to be looking for a centre back now is ! The manager is away at the minute looking at players would be an a good idea imo if he knew what he had to look for dont you think ?

Sorry I picked you up wrong.

It said in the Sun today that Liam rejected a contract offer from us. Also Mark Rossiter for Bohs on a part time deal to increase the Sligo feel to the place down there!

Fast becoming the Sligo B Team

**sligoman** · 23/12/2006, 9:29 PM

Mark Rossiter is riddled with injury afaik. Dont know if he'd be up to Premier standard anymore.

**feo123** · 23/12/2006, 11:01 PM

And he looks very much over-weight....although we said that about foy at the start of last season and he done excellent (for a while anyway)

Its a bit of a gamble by them alright but i suppose if it works out itll be worth it.

**SligoBrewer** · 25/12/2006, 1:12 PM

lets face it, they have the money now 2 take a lot o gambles

**Only1Rovers** · 25/12/2006, 3:14 PM

Where are you getting this info that Burns was offered a contract. I have heard from two people close to him he was offered notheing. He waited for Rovers to get back to him and nothing availed. From my view it appears the Club are covering up. Somthing stinks

**avvenalaf** · 25/12/2006, 3:23 PM

I heard from 'two people close to the club' that he was offered a contract which he turned down. My two people are as good as yours.

**Red4Eva** · 25/12/2006, 8:45 PM

i was talkin to burns on saturday night. he totally wanted to stay with rovers but the board f*cked it up. he got kinda emotional about it so i think he genuinely does like sligo&sligo rovers(bar the board). he said it has absolutely nothin to do with money and if money was what motivates him he would never have come to sligo in the 1st place. as far as i know he has signed nothin with bohs and if the gobsh*tes that run our club got the finger out there might be a tiny possibility he will stay.

It would be a miracle if he wanted to stay after the way he was treated by the board. It would be some christmas present if he did. Lets hope the board pull the finger out and sort it out if there is a possibility of him staying.
