Stanley does Sligo

Talk about fun..this would be a ripper...wish I was there...by golly the ex Stanley men will be in for a surprise... hope we see the doco over here..start a riot and it'll make the evening news at least.. :)
 
A (perhaps) long-winded option - Eurolines coach+ferry to sligo from manchester is 61.50 per person return (possibly with discounts for youths/seniors/children). The fares are refundable eg. if people need to pull out.

It does take a long time though and is overnight travel (could be a laugh!!), for example set off friday at 19.45 arrive sligo 12 noon saturday. one change of coach in dublin.

try using gulliver.ie or centralr.com to book/research hotels/b&b
 
Just an update, along with the supporters club voting slips there will be a leaflet about the sligo trip attached with a bit more info, still trying to sort out accommodation but it is looking like the weekend will be around the £150 mark + match ticket.

My number is on the leaflet if you want to provisionally book a place/places or post/pm on here and then I will have more of a true amount of numbers wishing to go :)
 
Totally off topic here.
I just got a Flogging Molly CD and in the credits by Bridget Regan (fiddle/whistle player) she gives a special thanks to Charles Roberts-pipe maker in Sligo :rolleyes:.

I`d never even heard of the place until Cooky went there now i hear it popping up all over the place.
 
for people that are interested in going to this..


Ryanair have a huge ireland flights sale at the moment
 
I'd say we in the Bit o'Red Supporters Trust will organise a supporters game before hand if ye are interested. Is their a group coming in July for Derry game? Ye wanted a game yeah?
 
there is now a change of plan regarding this trip as the ultras have decided to do their own trip in June... so due to reduced numbers I am going back to plan A which is flying... approx same price but with smaller numbers I would be able to collect the flight money from all of you before booking it...

The price of the flight is showing around £80-£90 at mo and looking to pay about £20 - £30 per night pp for the hotel so it still comes to approx £150

I need definate yes's in this thread and pm's with tel no's as I want to collect £100 pp asap so I can get flight booked and send hotel a deposit.

closing date for interest is going to be 2 weeks - noon sunday 25th May

so come on get yer name down, we're gonna have a blinder of a weekend :)

No problem. I'm in the Supporters Trust and myself and a few others organised a recent supporters match against Galway. It took place on the astro pitch at the Showgrounds. We can organise this again no problem. I'll PM you my E-mail address if you have any queries. Won't be on this site much probably so easier to keep you updated by E-mail.
 
harwood red, Alan will be in contact with you tomorrow or ASAP

Willie Miller, what time would ye be looking for this game to kick off around? The game is at 8pm, the pitch is located at the Showgrounds and there's a pub across the road from the ground...so ye won't have far to travel :D. Fans will probably have use of the away team dressing room after too so ye can have showers and get changed there. I'd say would around 2 or 3 pm suit? Plenty of time for drinks and that after, before the Rovers match.
