What grants?

Ok, let me rephrase. Where the hell are you getting the money for this in the long term?

I bit disapointed to see Sligo Rovers unbeaten run come to an end at the hands of 1-0 to UCD in the UCD Bowl last night, Still it was a great run though.Luckly that none of our closest rivals really took advantage of it.

Cant see many of the Railwayenders sitting on it darman. Id say its more to do with hosting u21 internationals and European capacity. Its going to be uncovered for now but the plan is to roof it.

There is a plan for the Churchill Road end too. The club actually got a price and it was considered for the game against Poltava. The project that would really make the Showgrounds tho is the 2,000 seater stand on the Jinks Ave side. Its been designed for a nice stand with indoor football hall, offices, meeting rooms, gym, etc in the back of it (on the small pitch beside where the astro pitch is now).

pascal was over here with us last year (tampa bay rowdies) and is a very good player. lightning quick, his crossing is a bit erratic, but glad to see him do well at sligo. He's a super guy as well - does a lot of work for the street kids in haiti.

Possibly bitter over the fact that Rovers aren't actually bitter about Shamrock?
