Galway first joined the League of Ireland in 1977, having been invited to participate in the League Cup in the previous year. Galway Rovers made its League of Ireland debut in Terryland Park, Galway, against St. Patricks Athletic on the August 28 of that year. The club's CEO is ex-derivatives trader Nick Leeson, whose unsupervised speculative trading caused the collapse of Barings Bank, the UK's oldest investment bank. |
