    Gives us a chance to hurl abuse at the waster Roddy, maybe he will pay back the £500 he owes Rovers

    The other clubs named for pre-season were local sides, Arrow Harps, Ballymote Celtic and Real Tubber. Longford Town is an away fixture. I didn't hear we had Derry, but it would be nice to have them in the Showgrounds.
    I have scattered my dreams underneath your feet, tread carefully, cos it's my dreams you walk on.

    Sligo Rovers have lined up ten pre-season fixtures prior to the big First Division kick-off on the weekend of 20th March. A mixture of cross border, local and Premier Division sides are sure to put Rovers through their paces before the football starts in earnest.

    Speaking to sligorovers.com, manager Sean Connor agreed that ten is a large number of pre-season games, but he feels that with so many new players on trial that he needs that many games in order to properly assess them.

    The manager, in his first full season in charge is using Irish League teams and Eircom League Premier Division clubs because as he feels “that’s the standard that we need to maintain.”

    In selecting Arrow Harps, Ballymote Celtic, Real Tubber and Gurteen Celtic because Connor wants to bring the team out into the county of Sligo and involve the club more in the local community.

    “These games are not about results, they are all about players and the build up to when results matter on the weekend of 2oth March,” he concluded.

    The full line-up is as follows:

    Saturday 5th February away to Arrow Harps.
    Kick-off – to be confirmed, Riverstown.

    Saturday 19th February away to Ballymote Celtic.
    Kick-off – 2pm, Ballymote.

    There will also be games against Real Tubber and Gurteen Celtic times and dates to be confirmed.

    Tuesday 22nd February away to the Irish League First Division Select. Kick-off – 7:30pm, Loughall, Co. Armagh.

    Saturday 26th February home to Shamrock Rovers.
    Kick-off – to be confirmed, Showgrounds.

    Wednesday 2nd March away to Longford Town.
    Kick-off – 7:45pm, Flancare Park.

    Sunday 6th March home to Finn Harps.
    Kick-off – 3pm, Showgrounds.

    Wednesday 9th March away to Coleraine FC.
    Kick-off – to be confirmed, Coleraine Showgrounds.

    Saturday 12th March away to Derry City.
    Kick-off – to be confirmed, The Brandywell.
