**Neish** · 07/11/2011, 6:59 PM

Not sure if this was posted already I had meant to a few weeks back but forgot to.The club needs a significant sum of money before Christmas or they are in real danger of going out of business. So If anyone can help Finn Harps by buying a ticket for our Monster Draw €10 and some great prizes. It would be greatly appreciated

Ps Big thanks to the Shamrock Rovers fans who have been very good buying tickets for this, and thank to any other fans of other clubs that have also done so

**Neish** · 07/11/2011, 7:35 PM

If you contact the club office perhaps they could help 074-9130070 maybe they could set something up for you. And thank you

**CityRebel** · 07/11/2011, 7:36 PM

Done. Some great prizes there.

Just bought 5 there.

I feel sure I'm going to win a weekend in Galway!

At the SGM last night it was announced that the club needs to raise €48,000 before the 21st of December or we will go out of business. Please help out guys in anyway you can, thank you

If we can just survive the next few months, I really believe that with the new stadium on the way we can rise again.

It says on there that the draw took place on October 22nd, or am I missing something?

**Dodge** · 07/11/2011, 7:57 PM

Pats have just tweeted that link (& already had plenty of retweets)

Good luck lads!

**Jofspring** · 07/11/2011, 8:08 PM

Just bought a ticket there. Good luck with it. Realistically 48,000 should be pretty achievable to raise over the next few months when you look at what other clubs have done in recent times.

It was first held back by the club to 5th November to raise more money, but it was announced at the SGM last night that Shamrock Rovers had requested the draw be held back for another few weeks to sell more tickets.
That club is an absolute credit to this league and country as a whole. Absolute legends.

If legends are involved, then I'm involved.

More than happy to contribute and support the draw even for a possible division one rival next season. €48,000 should be achievable. I hope the Donegal and LoI community gets behind them.

Monaghan fans should be all for helping Harps in fairness..

Going buying mine now....Best of luck with it.

**Sam_Heggy** · 07/11/2011, 9:25 PM

The League of Ireland never ceases to amaze me. The generosity and kindness shown to us from fellow LOI fans has been superb.

In saying that, we've been pretty kind to ANY team we've played over the years, you know, not taking points off them and all.

Cheers guys, greatly appreciated

**PartySaint** · 07/11/2011, 9:54 PM

Will definitely buy a few tickets, Best of luck!!

**shellyriver** · 07/11/2011, 10:04 PM

Hey, I'd love to help - but seriously, if your club is able to draw down €1.5million for a new stadium -- surely Finn Harps can go to the bond market, draw down a repayment from capital payment and cut down on the carpentry. What about a bit of creative accountancy, give Jim McDaid a buzz. Seriously, what's the story -- your debts keep on piling up last time I looked it was €600,000 -- ye can't go belly-up like Shams, Derry and Cork, because you have a big free big pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.

Still, willing to throw a few quid your way -- charity being the highest form of narcissism. What's Patsy McGowan reckon?

**Buller** · 07/11/2011, 10:22 PM

I'll buy some. I remember Finn Harps supporters donated to us when our fans took over the club.

More than glad to return the favour.

**Fivesilver** · 07/11/2011, 11:29 PM

FB'd & tweeted - best of luck.

**GreenStar** · 08/11/2011, 7:32 AM

Tickets purchased and word spread. Good luck with it. I believe Rovers are coming up to play a fundraising friendly at Ballybofey which will double as preparation for their European games. Hopefully a few thousand turn up for that game too.
