Slugger live blog: 12th July Orange Fest…

Okay, it’s the 11th night (I know it’s the 12th, but it’s a Sunday). People are gathering all over Northern Ireland to celebrate at a local bonfire. You can participate by using the hashtag #Slugger12th and it will appear in the live blog above. We’ll have a team out in Belfast, and various other big venues tomorrow, but we are keen to hear from people out in the west in places like Omagh, Rownowlagh, Dungannon, Enniskillen and Derry and particularly from small towns, villages and townlands. Send us you photos, texts and videos to [email protected]… or text me on 07984 1503999…

We are reader supported. Donate to keep Slugger lit!

For over 20 years, Slugger has been an independent place for debate and new ideas. We have published over 40,000 posts and over one and a half million comments on the site. Each month we have over 70,000 readers. All this we have accomplished with only volunteers we have never had any paid staff.

Slugger does not receive any funding, and we respect our readers, so we will never run intrusive ads or sponsored posts. Instead, we are reader-supported. Help us keep Slugger independent by becoming a friend of Slugger. While we run a tight ship and no one gets paid to write, we need money to help us cover our costs.

If you like what we do, we are asking you to consider giving a monthly donation of any amount, or you can give a one-off donation. Any amount is appreciated.
