Keeping the Slugger O’Toole boiler lit!

Thanks to for your kind comments about our work here on Slugger. Big US blogger The Agonist has been kind enough to link to us too. Now, two short accounts of Slugger. One from an Oxford Don: “I read the NI papers on line every day, but I go to Slugger to find out what’s really going on”. The other from my wife on having discovered me trying to listen to two radio stations at once, “you must be the Springer Spaniel of Irish politics”!

Slugger is fun to do. But it takes more time than is wise to devote to anything for free. But help us keep a quality show on the road by DONATING what you can now! Paypal is on the left side bar, or send us a cheque/Money Order. And thanks!

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.
