All at Sligo Rovers were saddened to learn of the recent passing of our life-long supporter, John (Johnny) Kilcolm, Drumee, Ballintogher.

Johnny was a true ‘Bit O’Red’ fan. He was at all Rovers FAI Cup Finals since 1970 and at most home games during the 1977 League of Ireland winning season.

He was also proud to be in attendance when Rovers beat St. Patrick’s Athletic to win the league title in 2012.

Another proud moment for Johnny came in 2010 when on behalf of the club, Conor O’Grady made a special presentation to him to mark his life-long support when Rovers brought the FAI Cup to Ballintogher.

We extend sympathy to his family and many, many friends.
