About Slugger

Slugger O’Toole is an entirely independent website which tracks news and comment on Northern Ireland, as well as facilitating an ongoing discussion amongst a readership that reflects the political diversity of opinion, both inside and outside the province.

Although we occasionally seek and receive project funding for some of our applied work, for example the research, on the future of Unionism, the website is supported entirely from the voluntary contributions of its readers.

If you enjoy and value the work that’s going on here, why not make a small donation and help keep Slugger live every weekday on the net!

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.
