It would give us great pleasure to kick these young fellas into next week but unfortunately as you say, it would look very bad on our club and tbh most fans around LOI will know our fans are not like that.

Finn Harps FC has great pride in how the fans conduct themselves both home and away and how the fans are treated at away fixtures, we would like that to continue, these youths are NOT Harps fans and measures have been taken in an attempt to prevent such an incident happening again.

I realise that they aren't Harps fans and were just out and out scumbags, but it doesn't take awy from the fact an innocent kid was given a hiding just for traveling to watch his team. I find it disgracefull if the club knew of this group of social skidmarks hanging around outside the ground, that we were made exit through the gate further away from our bus, which led to the whole situation occuring. Hopefully some good will come from this situation and the Harps event management team will take a long hard look at themselves and set about into providing a safer environment for away fans.
