CONNACHT FINAL ROS v SLIGO 18th July 2010

[ross4life]

Sligo have something like 6 Connacht titles. Hardly the Meath of connacht. More like the, er, Laois.

Ros seem to come up with a decent team about once every 10 years. Will this year's be the latest version to take its place amongst the teams from 1980, 1991 and 2001 ?

If Sligo win on Sunday it will be 6 Connacht titles (4 Senior, 2 Minor 0 under 21) & we do indeed have a good teams every 10 years but it's only 9 years at the moment 

[SLIGONIAN]

will you be able to buy tickets on the day ? Should be a great atmosphere at the game and if the weather is good i wouldn't might heading up to have a look at what hopefully should be a good entertaining match if i do head up i going to have a go at spotting sligonian ( to see if he is in fact human and not a myth) should be fairly easy i'd say he will be the one sitting calmly down chilling watching the game progress, wont you sligonian 

Im real, ask Larnaparka  , if you want deel rover i'll sign my autograph in your programme. I have a good friend from Crossmolina and all of Sligo know me so not hard to know who am. I dont have any anonomity, as I found out a few weeks ago but kinda already knew that.

Sligo have something like 6 Connacht titles.

They've only 3   1927(or 28) , 1975 and 2007.
Matt sums it up perfectly ...things must go right for us ans wrong for Sligo.
As for the media ...sure it's only Connaht ...you can't expect tem Dublin crowd to be bothered with the  likes of us. 

Fck the Dublin Medja they can lick my salty balls while they promote soccerball on planet Uranus for all I care. Connacht is the Alpha and the Omega, the Shannon is a gift from the Gods to keep the great unwashed out of our Land of Milk and Honey.

The capacity of Mchale park is currently 38000.If and when the project is completed and the extra seating is added to the albany end the final capacity will be 42000.

The 42,000 Capacity is badly needed for BIG National league, FBD League, and Annual single championship game each year.

So where looking at something like 28,000 for tomorrows game, a decent crowd without the "big two"teams

It's time for this again 


In the name of the dead generations of Rosmen who fought and died that we might be free of evil monsters  Ros summons her gossoons to her righteous cause.
Remember the great heritage ye have inherited.
Let's do it for Queen Maeve,Niall of the 9 hostages, Saints Eithne and Fidelma, St Coman,St Croan,St Faithleach,St Michael,St Ronan,Ned Duffy, The O'Connor kings of Ireland, Douglas Hyde,Percy French,the 42 who died for Ireland and Freedom and of course Uachtarán na hEireann herself.
Remember 43 and 44 and famous days in Castlebar like 52 , 72,79 and 86.
Remember O'Malley,Lindsay,Earley,Tony Mc,Jigger and most of all Harry Keegan. When ye see a Sligoman coming through with the ball ask yourself " What would Harry Keegan do?"
He'd drive man and ball half way to bloody Cliffoney so do the same and ye can win the day.
Slay the evil magpies who will dare to enter the Den of iniquity on Sunday and send them home sadder and wiser to their own dens of iniquity in Gurteen, Geevagh, Ballianafad, Tourlestrane , Drumcliff and even Bellaghy ( for sligonian)
