		Harps were almost on target again though in the 28th minute, Shay glad to see this particular header fly wide of his right-hand.
		The keyword from the Harps' bench throughout was "concentration", and it was uttered again when Bohs broke from their own half in an instant to leave James Keddy crossing the ball in the left, Gallagher grateful to save from Glen Crowe (59th minute).
		Harps were soundly beaten by ten goals to two in that match by Shamrock Rovers and there was much comment in the following week, that the club were not up to the task and it had been a foolish decision by the League to accept a team from Donegal.

		The last time Finn Harps were promoted (1995-96) they held their own for five seasons in the Premier League before making a return to the First Division.
		One defeat in 24 games was Finn Harps record under Felix Healy last season so perhaps it’s not surprising that he is confident enough that his charges will be able to hold their own in the higher grade.
		There is sure to be a bumper attendance when United play their first home game against newly promoted Finn Harps at the RSC this Friday evening (kick-off 7.30) and a win there really would provide a super launch-pad for the Blues in their quest for league honours.

		Breen also created openings and Harps had a flurry of corners but it was another through ball that led to the second goal when Crossan cut into the area and fired in low and hard beneath Monaghan keeper Vladimir Munteanu on 65 minutes.
		Harps pushed hard for a third but after hitting the woodwork it didn't look like their night.
		Harps now go through to the quarter finals of the league cup and should take great confidence from tonights performance from a team made up entirely of local talent.

		Harps produced the better football at Finn Park and will be disappointed not to take an advantage into Saturday's second leg at the Brandywell.
		Harps continued to press after the interval and McHugh wasted probably the best chance of the match in the 50th minute when he pulled a shot across the face of goal.
		Finn Harps boss Noel King was furious at the finish with referee Barr appearing to blow the final whistle with normal time not yet up.

	Soccer News, February 17, 1999
		Finn Harps, who on the balance of play deserved last night's victory, now meet Kilkenny City in the quarter-finals next month.
		Roared on by their biggest crowd of the season, Harps totally over-ran City in midfield, were first to every ball and their slick passing game had Cork in retreat from the kick-off which was delayed for 15 minutes to allow the huge crowd into the grounds.
		Harps carved out four great chances inside the opening 13 minutes and they had genuine claims for a penalty turned down as early as the second minute when Mulligan went sprawling in the box under Mooney's challenge.

		Five nil to Harps would seem a fluky result especially as the team bossed by Gerry Maguire and Brian Hughes have started the 2001/’02 season in a poor fashion, indeed picking up just one point for all their endeavours.
		For Harps the three–goal striker Gerard Woods was the business as he not only netted his trio in fine style but he got himself into other excellent scoring positions and worked hard for the whole game.
		Finn Harps: Paul Blair, Brian Hughes, Collie Murphy, Ernie Devlin, Gareth McLoughlin, Eamon White, Paudie Kelly, Marty Slevin, Chris Marley, Conor Haughey and Gerard Woods with subs: Raymond Heaney, Cathal Murphy and Shane Lennon.

	Bray Wanderers - Finn Harps 2-4 Bray Wanderers
		Against a defensively minded host side, Bray displayed their capacity to play stylish football for passages during the first half of this final match of the season, with no advantage to be gained by either side, and neither with anything to lose.
		Gethins was proving the danger man up front for the Harps, Ryan seeming to get a touch on a through ball to let him into the danger area again, and McGovern's hesitation in front of a further attack by the striker forced Hannigan to smother.
		Harps face the grim task of rebuilding morale and support in the First Division, now stripped of anything they could reasonably describe as a local derby.

		Harps ace attacker Kevin McHugh responded within a minute, reaching Paddy McGrenaghan s cross to shoot past Stephen O Brien and give the Donegal men renewed hope.
		The closest Harps came to an equaliser was a header from defender Declan Boyle, which had O Brien beaten but flicked off the crossbar and behind for a goal-kick.

		We sure called this one right: Finn Harps made it four straight draws on the trot in the Eircom League and, in doing so, probably wrecked Bohemians' hopes of catching leaders Shelbourne.
		It was Harps who dominated the first hour and Bohemians should have been dead and buried before Glen Crowe lobbed in an equaliser on 65 minutes.
		Crowe and goalkeeper Wayne Russell were the difference between the sides as Harps failed to exploit a catalogue of chances.

		The luckless Harps, who play nice football when in possession, once more failed to capitalise, starting with Kevin McHugh’s high header from a Gorman corner eight minutes in.
		Harps could do nothing with a brace of corners five minutes before half time, though McGuinness had to clear off the line from the second, and McHugh was cautioned when he claimed a penalty rather too emphatically,
		Harps tried to force the pace again for the remaining minutes, but were frustrated in that by the appearance of a dog in the playing area, to the annoyance of referee Paul McKeon, who held up play until the animal was eventually ejected.

		The visitors could have found themselves behind as early as the fourth minute, when former Harp Pascal Vaudequin cleared off the line from Kevin McHugh - and just 16 minutes more had elapsed when the threat was made good.
		Rovers were delighted to welcome back Tony Cousins from long-term injury in the 75th minute; and three minutes from the end he showed how much they had missed his poacher's instincts when he was in the right place to meet a Billy Woods cross and steer it home for the equaliser.

		Finn Park has hosted some big named players in its time hosting League of Ireland football and in the mid-70s only an arrangement about the distribution of gate receipts meant that George Best didn't grace the hallowed Finn Park turf.
		The league leaders at the time were of course Finn Harps and due to the arrangement that was in place George Best never travelled and the chance of one of the greatest sporting icons of his generation appearing at Finn Park was lost.
		A challenge game between the two clubs was arranged in 1973, and United were due to play at Finn Park on Saturday 11th November '73.
