Does anybody know how we are doing on this?
Have we reached the 130,000 or are we far from it?
There was nothing in the Sligo Champion on this at all today.
What happens if we dont raise the money?
What happens if we do - where do we go from here?

Life without Rovers, it makes no sense...it's a heartache...nothing but a fools game. S.R.F.C.
But these full and part time players have got to be paid as well.
If we go down that road, will we lose Paul Cook and some of our better players?
Of course but it'll be a lot less than the current wage budget. As for Cook, only he can make that decision.

It couldnt be much less.
I assume a lot of the players are on 2 year contracts so they will have to be paid
afaik, we only have 3 FT players under contract for next season.

I thought a lot of them got extensions to their contracts
Do we need 75 new fundraising threads a day?
RIP JOHNNY
Evidently yes.
ya thats all we have.
Hi Deecay,there's hardly 75 different fundraising threads.
It would be great if you could answer the above 4 questions for me.
If the answers are in all the threads you mention,I'm sorry as I just cant seem to find them.
What is the situation with the Forum syndicate?
I put my name down for 50 but i must have missed how to transfer the money - was an electronic transfer setup?
I think knappagh red has filled one syndicate and is on his second.
From today's Indo
Meanwhile, Sligo Rovers remain on the road to ruin, according to club chairman Michael Toolan, after the club revealed that they have gathered only €32,955 of emergency funds in just under a month.
The board had initially set a target of €130,000 on July 15, a figure they stated was needed by the end of August or the club would cease to exist.
And with that deadline looming, Toolan has reiterated that the Bit O' Red will not continue if something drastic is not done.
"If you're asking me whether we'll still be going if the revenue doesn't keeping coming in through the turnstiles, we won't."
Whats that comin' over the hill
It's the Monster,
The Cookie Monster!
I think if the club got a load of tickets printed for the Drogs game, priced at 10 euro each and we went around every doorstep in Sligo asking people to help the club survive by buying a match ticket it would raise significant funds. A lot of people have goodwill towards the club but can't afford 50 euro for the syndicate but would have no problem giving a tenner. I mentioned this to an MC member and got no response
good idea but whats new about the MC reaction they wont do a lot to get the money in leaving it to the fans
brilliant idea, run with it........
He can hardly run with it without the MC backing it in fairness.
It would have to be done by the club because it involves match tickets.
make it happen, plague the MC
get things rolling
stop putting obstacles in the way
Looks like a door-to-door collection is the last roll of the dice. Who'll do it, though?
