    If they weren't footballers, what would they be?

    With clubs submitting budgets this week to the Abbottstown hierarchy what will it hold for the LOI clubs. Will Cork be brazen to submitt one....will we be rejected 3 times before approval....and with Bohs financial wores or will they tell the FAI they have cut their cloth and are playing next season with an entire squad of barmen as was the case of Mark Rossiter last season...

    So what I am looking for to kick off he trust site for 2010 is some humorous writings from you lot (plenty of comedians on here) on our lads as the title says "If they werent footballers what would they be" and why?

    So will it be from Brushy the street sweeper (because the name fits) or Keano the bouncer (as he enacted one night in McHughs) could Blinkhon be a pilot because he spends most of his time in the air.......etc. etc.

    Can be every player or just one.....all welcome

    Anyone with any ideas mail me at alan@thebitored.com and I'll compile them all.......

    If Danny was a footballer, he'd . . . oh wait, I've got this wrong, haven't I?

    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."

    Nah.....that's way too far fetched!!

    Not living anywhere near Sligo I considered the position and decided that I would be better continuing devoting my time to the many other contributions that I make to the well being of Sligo Rovers. Can we just move on now as the thread is getting really bare and I am much too excited about our chances are for the coming season and want to hear lots more news about the players coming in and what the prospects are, thats were we should be coming from. Come on you Reds
