Jamie Mulhall I think. He was signed for the u19s, not sure from which club. I think three or four of the u19s were signed on amateur forms to give cover for the first team.
Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.

Apologies Nigel I thought you were talking about the cup replay, either way tough game regardless of what team Finn Harps put out, I'm more concerned with what team Longford put out

Don't get me wrong James Mulahll is a superb player but why would you drop Havo at right back he is superb going forward he's been our best defender the last 2 seasons! Cousins had a chance to change things up for the Waterford game and surprise them with the pace of Josh and Ebbe but just as we all knew he'd do he stuck with the same rigid crap he puts out every week. Purdy made a great impact when he came on but I bet hel be dropped again for the harps game. What the hell is he thinking playing O'Neill wide right since he is a holding midfielder! The more I talk about it the more annoyed I get the man is clueless!
Why play don in the right with purdy on the bench, also why bring on keith quinn lb move wille in cb when hope came off, surely could a just put big mac straight in, ok hes not quick but it was all long balls waterford were hoofin up at that stage...
At least we have the Irish match on Friday to take our minds of all the negative team selections and defensive football, oh sorry I forgot thats what Trap does too. here's wishing for a surprise or 2
The annoying thing is...that if we'd beat Cobh last week, and if we beat Longford this week, we'd only be 5 points behind ye..

Couldn't get to the game this week good result come on guys give us some feed back I will hear from a Finn Harps guy tomorrow but what did you lot think of the match
Anyone here able to give me a team lineup of Harps tonight? Disgraceful that there was absolutely no updates or coverage given to the game tonight. Poor form from a promotion chasing club.

We ****ing get it Nigel.
Sporting F*ck All!
I usually find that the easiest way to find out your team's starting lineup is by going to the game Nidge. Harps fans like a moan about the long trips they have to endure, but yet they couldn't be arsed going on the shortest trip they have yesterday simply because they've nothing to play for.
For the record, Gallagher was in goals. Cowan was centre back. McCarron was up front. That's all I can do for you. Only need another 8 now.
We could have scored 7 or 8 last night but equally we could have conceeded 3 or 4 but considering that wasn't our usual back 4 to concede only 1 is a good return.
Cousins finally gave Ebbe a go and look what happened. The highlight of last night for me was the performance of our youngsters. Mulhall is the brightest talent I've seen in years, Ebbe and Josh were all superb! Our 3 goal scorers we all under the age of 20! The future is very bright.
The negative from last night was cousins in game tactics again. We were cruising at 3-0 but TC decides to take a striker off and put Gillespie on and our back 4 dropped onto the penalty spot and invited pressure and as a result harps scored and could have actually ended up drawing the game if they were any good. We will not get away with this against better teams and especially agains mervue in 2 weeks as they are probably the best counter attackers in the league.
We have a special squad of players and that's why in extremely frustrated we haven't this league wrapped up by now but there's no reason we won't win our last 4 games and if that happens we just need athlone to slip up once as we have them on the final day and even if athlone do secure the title finishing 2nd could be vital!
My Finn Harps pal told me apart from the continious long balls from our keeper, de Town played some very good football but so did Harps, he said we scored at vital times, Harps missed at vital times, but if Harps had have scored he thought they would have won as De Towns confidence would have gone, it looked like Harps marked no 24 very tightly, our no 2 played centre half and was excellent, as was no 9, I think he is a pretty good judge of what he is watching so I'll take it at face value until I'm told otherwise
Harps missed a great chance to go 1-1 and that would have change the game but apart from that we dominated. Sully missed 2 one on ones, Shaw missed a sitter, their keeper made a top save we honestly could have scored 7 or 8. We defended poorly but as it wasnt our normal back 4 we did well to only concede 1 we were deserved winners. Havo was very good at cente back.

From what i saw of it the future is bright for us if you leave out DOB out of it. Mulhall, Ebbe and Josh were superb esp mulhall for our third goal.. he has fantastic hunger and if he keeps up this progress he will go to the bigger clubs.. I was harsh on Ebbe a few weeks ago but I can see why he was signed.. pity the crowd was poor.. was there a attendance announced at it?
Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?
