Replying To Sligoman1234:  "I don't recall anyone on about taking down one of the big 3 in Connacht…anyone who did must have had too much of the bottle. I recall saying before that whoever won today's game would be getting a double digit beating to Galway and that'll still probably be the case..but enjoy today as it was deserved. Leitrim have ran Sligo close the odd time but remember last years league 0-32 to 0-10 and 2024 championship 0-6 to 0-15 in Carrick. So the expectation that Sligo would win was well grounded in recent performances. It's what's changed on the line that's the issue."
You posted at end of league that Sligo should be taking care of Leitrim by 9/10 points etc….
With such in-depth knowledge of football how is anybody to take anything you post seriously. As for myself I posted that a run in the Championship or Tailteann was unlikely. To win something you must have a strong defence , allied to a good midfield. After that spirit and belief. Barry McNulty ran rings around Sligo players yesterday and neither management or players had a clue how to close him down.

Seriously spooked by the reaction to some of my comments. I genuinely can't see how I have been so offensive. I will leave the forum with my tail between my legs. Genuinely apologise if I was out of hand.

Shocking performance yesterday and poor sligo crowd nainly down to the price of a stand ticket Id imagine very short-sighted. Chopping and changing the team all league has come home to roost. Harte surely get a run now in goals going forward. Big improvement and reset needed for Tailteann Cup. Only positive is we have given lot of younger players a chance in the league. As well to stick with them at this stage as will benefit in the long term. Need to focus on working 2 pointers as we don't seem to have grasped the new rules at all. Day of winning matches by single pointers are long gone.

Armagh and Leitrim won matches yesterday by a single point!

A tough day for Sligo yesterday, beaten by a better coached and more hungry and spirited Leitrim team. That was my take away having listened to Ocean FM whilst in holidays. Sligo have regressed badly it would seem and for supporters to be asking big questions is very understandable.
That all said, fair play to a very young Leitrim team on their first win over Sligo in 16+ years.
