Harps lost their opening game as an LoI club 10-2 to Shamrock Rovers. It was a dublin city Cup tie but still a record domestic defeat.

They also lost 12-0 to Derby in the UEFA Cup although I believe all 12 were offside. :D

12-0 wasn't bad... considering it was 9-0 at half time!

OTHER TEAMS:
Finn Harps FC 'A'

Also Finn Harps U20s and Finn Harps Youths (who play in Donegal Youth (U18) league). Other youth sides are formed for specific competitions like the Foyle cup.

Most Appearances: Jonathan Minnock (over 400, not sure of exact number)

Incidentally, if you're interested in the history of Harps (and it is a mad story) you can usually pick up a copy of the superbly written club history on EBay or Amazon.

Official Club History: The Finn Harps Story by Bartley Ramsay.

A short version of the club's history can be found HERE (http://www.finnharps.com/History.htm).

I am just referencing other League of Ireland Senior teams for the club.


Minnock made 470 appearances for Harps (plus another 28 for Shelbourne).

Is that league appearances for Minnock ?

When was Eunan Blake manager for Harps?

Anyone know any of his playing statistics either??

Cheers in advance.

He came in as manager in 76/77 and was sacked during the 81/82 season. Again got this from Bart's book.

Which you should buy. :)
