I see the opening weekend to be streamed games are listed on the Sligo GAA website.
Friday Aug 1st - Shamrock Gaels v Coolera/Strandhill and Saturday Aug 2nd - St Molaise Gaels v St Marys.
Should be 2 crackers. All 4 made the semi finals last year and will want to get off to a strong start. Its hard to predict any outcomes without knowing player availability and form can be a lot different from league to championship.
Replying To Sligonian: "So what you are saying is a Henry impressed more and if you are basing without personal allegiances he would get it. But because of personal relationships the CB are going to manipulate the backroom team to give it to Dessie. So the same county board that replaced Dessie after he won the u20 and give it to Henry, are going to shaft Henry to give the senior job to Dessie. Are we back in 1972? The best man should get it full stop.
Gerry McGowan will have definitely went for the role so I am surprised its not a 3 horse race. They maybe looking at getting Gerry to go in with another management team."
Gerry McGowan will be coaching an inter-county team in 2026. It will not be Sligo.
Replying To Sligoman1234: "Dya know what Sligonian I think I'm going to have to join the ever growing list of people who will just ignore what you post in future because ya always seem to make a personal jibe when someone, or recently everyone poses an alternative view to yours.
Put your name forward for Chair or Treasurer at the next County Convention because ya clearly have all the answers. Why not do both, and while you're at it sure put yourself in the managers job or just give it to all anyone who has done something outside the county and suddenly you always said they should be involved. Perhaps ask Molaise Gaels to field as the county team going forward, then and maybe only then will ya ever be happy."
Then when he gets beaten he will completely change the subject and /or change names and post again
Really looking forward to club championship...I think it's probably the hardest one to call in many years, several teams will genuinely feel they have a chance, with new rules hopefully we will see games better attended

Sligoman1234, I was just trying to get you to see the limits of your thinking and what is possible and I made plenty of points which I feel are valid and fair. You did say I was away with the birds which I would consider much worse than anything I said so if you are going to give it, you have to be able take a little bit back. Are you really that attached to your belief that Sligo can't afford the best people? It maybe our current reality but we can change and improve on that.
If given the opportunity I would love to be involved in Sligo GAA in the future.
