No-one at Harps could agrue its been a blessing to avoid a premier club thus far however the travel costs to Wexford and overnight stay in Avondale have come on top of a very expensive first div campaign with two trips to Wexford, Cobh & Waterford.
Context is everything. It would be nice to be playing the beautiful game but we don't have the resources to convince the type of creative players who cost money to come to the club.
Since the infamous premier season when we went professional there has been a titantic struggle behind the scenes to keep the show on the road. Survival has been our biggest achievement but we'll need to kick on at some stage.
In that context we'll look forward to cup-semi even if we are going to be parking the bus and hope for some good fortune!
