SACKED IN THE MORNING!! SLIGO SLAUGHTER WELL TO PROGRESS! Sligo Rovers 2-0 (3-0) Motherwell VLOG!! 

Yeah. Halfway through a mediocre season. The coach was sacked in May and first choice keeper left days before the first leg and we lost to UCD at the weekend. Motherwell have no excuse.

Pub team that's why wee club

Trains are still a lot faster in Scotland it just felt like an eternity getting there 👍

@@Goggsy99 Max train speed in Scotland is 125mph. Max train speed in Ireland is 200kmh which equates to 125mph. But reaching max speeds is rare. Average speed between Glasgow and Edinburgh is 51mph. Average between Dublin and Sligo is 45mph. All the stops require a long time to speed up and slow down so it can take forever to get places. That’s why you can drive from Glasgow to Edinburgh in less than hour and Dublin to Sligo in 2.5 hours. No stops. Basically both our rail networks are bang average and miles behind the likes of France and Japan. F&ck me. I’ve turned into a train spotter ☹️

Feel like you've chosen the longest possible train from Glasgow to Edinburgh there haha, usually around 50 mins when I go

@@symbolicdoom Yeah. One with stops the same as he took to Sligo. Intercity trains that have little to no stops are far faster on average. The idea that Scotland is some sort of advanced country with a high speed rail network compared to Ireland. Ffs 😂

@@Dreyno Haha fair enough, I know nothing about Irish rail so was making no such suggestion

Would have cost me £50 more - unfortunately air travel doesn’t accommodate students well enough

The gaffers target would have been Europe and he got that, that's why they kept him. If county bet us to 5th he'd have been long gone by now

Nothing unlucky about the way we played. We were awful

We both know that's a lie

@@aaronloftus6125 when was the last time a Scottish club made the group stage of any European competition outside of Rangers Celtic ?

@@gerardoconnor2793 Are you English or something? If yer Irish I think you'd understand money is the main issue, we only have 5 million population or so similar to Ireland, I mean at least we have 2 teams in group stage football consistently unlike Ireland, other teams with a lot of experience in Europe in the past aswell, can't say the same about Ireland. Anyway as I was originally saying money is the issue, loads of glory hunters supporting the Old Firm leaving the rest of us with nothing.

think its fair to look at Liam scales and Jamie mcgrath as example of standard of irish league. both regular starters at top loi teams. scales couldn't cut it with celtic but starter for Aberdeen. Jamie mcgrath was not dundalks star player but was st mirrens.

No you only need to look at the u21s that beat the Irish teams each year in the Challenge cup

Doesn’t fit the song tho does it 😂

Away and don't talk pish, yer league is shite and any team in Scotland is expected to beat any Irish team

@@aaronloftus6125 like Motherwell were expected to beat us??? 😎

@Moss you miss understand me from the start, not saying we've won anything but I know we would be tougher opposition to than Albion rovers! And if you want to talk facts, your entire league is dependent on the old firm, every team needs them for TV deal money, remove them and yeah lad the margins between both our leagues is minimal

😂

Aye right then, that's not possible considering Sky, BT and Premier only ever show the two games.

f@@aaronloftus6125 On a regular there basis Scottish Football highlights were shown on Irish television on Sunday lunchtime. Do me a favour and watch highlights of the Irish Cup Final last year and come back to me. I would hazard a guess that you experts on Irish football have never seen an Irish league game. You are living on perceptions.Remember that Sligo took Motherwell to the cleaners and Sligo are not championship material. I would say most of the better Irish teams would get past the Motherwells and Dundees of this world

@Moss It is not like that at all. The standard in the Proclaimers league is pretty average outside of Bert and Ernie. The top teams in Ireland would handle the Motherwellls and Livingstones of this world. I bet you have never seen an Irish league game. I have attended both. It was the same at the recent international. You are sounding like the English, arrogant God forgive us. Of the four Irish teams in Europe this year 3 of them have reached the third round of the European Conference. They probably will not go further except for a good draw, but still.

@@raymonddixon7603 That would be because teams like Motherwell and Dundee have never once in their history proven they are world class, well maybe Dundee about 100 years ago but other than that they've been nothing more than bottom half of the league

@@aaronloftus6125 World class. No team in the Proclaimers league is world class. It is a dysfunctional league beyond repair. Unless a league is competitive it eventually disintegrates. Since 2012 there have been 5 winners of the league here. If I put a tenner on the Scottish league winners in 2032, with 2 choices I would be on a winner. Of the 4 teams from Ireland who played in Europe this year 3 of them have got to the third round. Would you fancy of the Livingstons or St. Mirrens do that. Then Scottish numpties saying we are a Highland league and part timers and minnows. Most people in Ireland knew Sligo were on a winner against Motherwell before a ball was kicked. Sligo, and fair play to them, are not Champions in the making here.

Your right I would love to see St Mirren in Europe but the truth is we would struggle but we would surely beat Sligo Rovers.

@@dylanmurphy4342 st mirren ahahahahahha you’re having a laugh

@@kmc8298 Any team in the prem would beat Sligo

@@dylanmurphy4342 for Motherwell to lose against Sligo is almost horrific for our game. Outfought and out classes in both games. Utterly laughable and no wonder fans from down south call us a farmers league. I’d love to see teams like Motherwell get into the group stages, but I can’t see that happen any time soon. Motherwell went into this tie calling Sligo minnows as well. It would be nice to see St Mirren have a go, hope they have a good season.

@@KyloNight Cheers It's unlikely we will get top 6 due to Robinson's extremely defensive game plans so probably another 8th or 9th place finish probably hopefully not though

Sligo rovers is at a higher level than Motherwell, stop acting like your a big club. Motherwell are tinpot

If Sligo are Highland League level, what does that make Motherwell? It wasn’t a lucky goal. You lost home and away. 3-0 on aggregate. As said above, tinpot.

Here in Dublin we call the Scottish premiership the Proclaimers league. An absolute disaster of a league. Every league has it's own standard. The question for the partisan supporter is how competitive is it. Over the last 10 years 5 different clubs have won the league here.

could have been worse for motherwell if sligo hadn't sold Johnny Kenny to celtic and also lost John Mahon this summer. only have to look at Liam scales and Jamie mcgrath as recent examples of players coming from what u say is Highland league to be more than up to standard to play in Scottish Premiership. saw example of colts beating sligo a few year back in in Bru Cup but irish teams didn't take that serious and also it was only teams finished outside of Europe places that were allowed enter the in bru. irish league deserves alot more respect. u should watch a game before slagging it off. would love to see a soccer version of the celtic league in years to come. congrats motherwell in opening day win in league season and best of luck this year

@@alanmooney4343 Fair play Alan. The Proclaimers League is rubbish except for Laurel and Hardy. From a St. Pat's fan.
