Why Mr. Chairman is this GRAND DRAW not advertised on the Club's Official Website?
It's not only about getting people through the turnstiles you know?

You're just nit-picking now. Toolan promotes lotto sales all the time and I'm sure he will be selling dozens of tickets out in south Sligo.It is not his job to make sure it is on the website. Your post reeks of needing an excuse to attack him and there is no need there.

Your post reeks of bewilderment!

Get real young man!!!!!!!!
The man went public and had a go at the general public for not coming out to support the club. "Sligo Rovers is a community based club, but if that community does not back us then we could be facing a serious situation".

It is up to other people within the club to put it up on the club website, hardly the chairman.

Personally I think Toolan has a point. It wasn't a scare tactic, it was honesty when asked a question.His appeal to ask the people to come out and support the team and the promotion of a new club lotto is completly different. You gave your opinion on that matter and that is fair enough. But why drag it up on a completly different subject, especially when the Grand Draw is something positive. I don't get the attitude of some people on here.

The GRAND DRAW in itself is a great idea but like all great ideas they only are a success when worked on. By not advertising such a venture on the Official website is the first step in failure. You seem to go through life putting things in pigeon holes? The running of the club takes in all aspects of incomings and outgoings. The buck stops with the head of every organisation for everything. This is something you will, I have no doubt, learn in the great university of life. Yes I have an opinion, so do you, so learn to respect it and don't go defending something because you feel it's in the wrong pigeon hole.

I didn't say it shouldn't be advertised on the website. I just said it is not the chairman's fault. Thanks for the lesson on life though. I didn't respect your opinion at all. You're being a bit condascending to me if anyone is. And even if I did, you're the person who accused Faz of faking an injury last week because he hasn't been injured before so why should anyone!!

Ha, Ha ................ nice one!
Sometimes people need a kick up the backside in order to get productiivity.
It certainly worked in the case of Faz :-)

**redtildead** · 21/04/2008, 6:44 PM

So in order to spur Faz on and encourage him, you decided to make up a story claiming he was faking an injury?

Anyways where can the tickets for the draw be got is it at home games or what?

I have some if ya want one I can bring them to Finn Park, otherwise I'd say any MC member will have plenty to sell if you contact them.

should this not be a sticky.

seem to have missed this orginally and just got sent the link from a mate. Not on website either tho.

**kkontour** · 24/05/2008, 8:34 PM

Was that draw made? Any word on who won?

**sligoman** · 24/05/2008, 8:49 PM

Was made at half time last night. Some woman from Strandhill Road won Portugal holiday, can't remember any others.

Email the club, they might be able to provide you with the results. From what I remember all winners had Sligo addresses, so none of your London buddies won.
