Galway a big loss to the top tier.
I could agree with you but then we'd both be wrong.

Unfortunately too many draws and penalty misses cost us this season.   I personally think Galway Utd should be one of the biggest teams n the country but nobody will pump in the money. The Comers dont do enough for the club. They have multi millions, maybe billions and give a feeble amount.

Referee was just brutal and the backpass was clear as day. Heartbroken but the carry over from last seasons disastrous finish has cost us big h Times . I’d keep Keegan he has a fantastic eye for a player and some of the Football we played was the best I’ve seen in Edp for years. Huge rumours about bray but that’s no good to us if we lose half a team before the fai act.

The Comer brothers are businessmen, whether they have millions or billions is irrelevant if they're going not going to make a return on their investment what's the point?

Just look at Kelleher at St Pats, it's hard to keep bank rolling a LOI club.

Limerick still managed to get relegated 2 seasons ago, what's your point?

Market's Field isn't a patch on Eamonn Deacy Park facilities wise either. 

So it's not as if JP has turned Limerick into a mini Man City or Chelsea or anything.

A huge stumbling block for Galway is Eamonn Deacy Park ironically enough as they don't own it. The Galway FA are stifling a lot of progress the club could be making

So he pumps money in because he is proud of where he comes from and doesnt expect it back.   He also supports the GAA among other things.  Anyway with a Euro run or winning the league they would win it back. Doesn't take millions to win the league here.

Roughly what would Galway's weekly wage bill roughly be? Most players are full time, as is Keegan AFAIK!

Wouldn't Galway's wage bill have to be doubled minimum if not trebled in order for us to safely say they would be there or thereabouts to win the LOI given the current crop of players at the club.

I think if The Comers were to invest serious money in Galway United, it would be to buy the stadium for the club or to invest the money into the youth structure within the club, far more sustainable and beneficial long term imo.

I don't know the figures on the wages.  But  think if the club had a bit of success the crowds would double. I'd take any increase in investment in any area.

I actually think the back pass was a bad touch from the defender and not intended
