i believe in one man, one vote. i should be that one man with that one vote.
ALWAYS ON TOUR!
Because of the irresponsible way Clubs have been run The FAI have had some very difficult choices to make and are often left with with the choosing of the lesser evil- unpalatable, perhaps unfair but a pragmatic decision for the benefit of fans and the League.
But I appreciate this topic has been discussed to death.
As a Harps fan I worry about our short term future but its vital for the Club to pay off local Creditors as much as possible for long term goodwill.
The plus side is both Derry and Harps have local based Teams and this is the long term way to go.
Yes the Home Match V Derry will be a vital revenue stream - just wish we had two of them.
A second home Match would have given the Club that is working hard to paying of its creditors a little breathing space.
We must be the only League in the World where Fans look forward to chanting the rights of creditors at their rivals. Prize for the wittiest
We've a new board. We've been demoted and have a pretty much new squad. The fans have pulled together, we get good numbers through the gates and the fans have chipped in...
Maybe if yous pulled in a few more numbers, you could get a nice new scoreboard too!
Looks well by the way, love it!
The new north-west derby is going to be craic next week, hopefully there is a massive crowd and we can get our views of the former Derry City across in song
It's not every season that you get to play new teams, never mind playing 2 new sides in 2 weeks.
Sorry Sammy when was it again you beat us in a league match????????????????????????Originally Posted by Sam_Heggy

I wish i did not know then what I dont know now
When was the last time Harps got thrown out of the league for cheating?

Old Chinese proverb say "Club whose Board meetings descend into boxing match probably not best placed to offer corporate governance advice".
Look on the postitive side,Harps are also playing us in the EA sports cup at the Brandywell the following week as well so you's will get a cut of the gate which will be more than you's have lifted at any home league game in years probably.
On another serious note,I see you's are in big debt and hopefully you's will sort it out somehow.
Really looking forward to two derbies in the next 2 weeks with massive attendances. I predict the same old same old though
So if you think Bohs are big read this. http://www.astronomy.ie/perpespective.html
Better to sort it out in a board room rather than the court roomOld Chinese proverb say "Club whose Board meetings descend into boxing match probably not best placed to offer corporate governance advice".

Just on a side note, have you seen our new expensive scoreboard
Not sure of the exact figure, but around 300-400k. It's borderline as to whether it's manageable or not. Or the one hand we're close to the new stadium and the structures have improved etc and the club seems to be going in the right direction. On the other there's a chance we won't be around next season because the debt could just drown us.
A huge amount of damage was done in a crazy 2008 (lost nearly 200k) and last year it felt like the club was in shellshock.
We've come back from this sort of debt before, but not in such a difficult environment.

Fair point. A lot of structural reform since then though. Can DCFC really say the same?Old Chinese proverb say "Club whose Board meetings descend into boxing match probably not best placed to offer corporate governance advice".
(Serious question by the way, it just seems like the new set-up isn't hugely different from the old one)

They've never actually been caught bothering sheep either.
But doesn't stop the rumors.
I know its a bit early since the match is not until next week, but since the war of songs has been mentioned on this thread I would like to put something forward for the Harps fansThe new north-west derby is going to be craic next week, hopefully there is a massive crowd and we can get our views of the former Derry City across in song

not hard to know the first north west derby is approaching, the build up begins, oh how sweet it would be if your ostentatious scoreboard read derry city 0 finn harps 1 at the end of the game! odds are stacked against us, but then everyone loves the underdogs!
It's just a job. Grass grows, birds fly, waves pound the sand. I beat people up.
