Liverpool Legends

it wont be the rovers team that plays them if this goes ahead!
i think it will be a great thing for the club, we could make an event of it, have the game itself earlier than usual and then have something like the 1977 anniversary that was held at the end of last season, it'd be a good money spinner, think of all the liverpool fans in sligo alone that would love to be in the same room as the legends of the 80's and early 90's. and then non liverpool fans would love to be there aswell. it'd be very good imo to do this, and would be succesful!

Assume it will be the players pre 1990 as they haven't done much since to be considering legends.

it would be good to get them if its a big moneyspinner and maybe the manyoo fans can ask the pool players whats it like to win the CL regularly and if all the sligo manyoo supporters turn up then it would need old trafford to house them!

For my money rovers circa 1977 were a better team just never got the publicity! although we are mentioned in the same breath as Argentina in "SHOOT!" magazine when we became champs (xlent picture - every rovers fan should have a copy!)

93/94 wasn't a successful season then. You have been away from the sticks too long mate.

I think he was referring to Liverpool, thus opening up a boring Pool Vs Utd debate, which is best kept for a different forum.

Point taken.
What I hate and can't comprehend is what people here call the barstoolers (I love it) how they have an undivided love for a club they have absolutely no connection with. Our grass roots is where we were brought up. It's where we have come from, it's where we belong. If only these people would appreciate that then as a football club SRFC would be a stronger force. The Eircom League of Ireland would be a much better league and they wouldn't have to be looking over the water for ways to live a dream.
