Sligo Rovers have taken the next step in their masterplan by lodging planning permission to redevelop the Showgrounds into an 6,100 all-seater stadium.

Under the plans, the League of Ireland Premier Division club is to replace the current Jinks Avenue Stand and build a new stand at the Church Hill Road end.
