Harps Away

**Lim till i die** · 15/04/2012, 12:44 AM

Big game now after tonight, they'll have a crowd and will be looking at it as an opportunity for themselves.

So, who's travelling??

**Jofspring** · 15/04/2012, 8:17 AM

Tempted to head up with it being a Saturday. They should be well up for it after the win yesterday. I don't know what state their pitch is in but if we see a similar line up to Friday with Dom in and play football like we did I'd fancy us for the 3 points. Always a tough place to go though.

Doing well to make it in 4 hours ;P Saturday against Longford was our worst travelling support of the year so far. Looking forward to the match.

As regards the pitch, it's in fairly decent condition considering how bad it's been in the past 2 or 3 seasons. It's in as good a condition as it's been for about 5 years now.

WRONG!!

Bus is leaving at half twelve

Out for this one now myself with my own match Saturday night. First match I'm going to miss this season. Hopefully a few are still able to head up. The usual few seem to have made this trip over the years.

**sadloserkid** · 16/04/2012, 9:00 AM

Ah we'll have our usual few heads there. Hopefully Behan will replicate last year's goal.

Fair play to anyone willing to pay that much for a bus didnt think there would be one being honest

**nigel-harps1954** · 16/04/2012, 2:53 PM

I noticed that you only let folks from the supporters club onto the bus. Just a suggestion, would this be the type of match ye should open up to anyone willing to go just to fill the bus? If I'm correct in saying it's your longest trip of the season? You reckon many would go on a bus up there?

We have no organised supporters club bus, rather myself and one other organise all the bus trips for the season and we just opened up to whoever was able to make the trip for our buses. 25 quid a head was what we paid too for the bus, given the fact we only had 18 people on the bus itself that was very cheap.

Hope to see a big crowd of ye up, would love to see an atmosphere similar to that in Jackman earlier in the season.

I reckon they'll just about fill the sixteen seater at 25 quid a head.

You might get a few more if you opened it up but as far as i'm concerned you'd wanna be fair interested to travel to Harps on a bus as in interested enough to pony up the tenner for the year. If you're not then meh, you're not needed anyway.

This is just my reading of it, I've absolutely nothing to do with the Supporters Club, thank god!

40ish at a push I'd say.

You'll have the bus, club officials, family members, a couple of cars up from Limerick and a couple of cars across from Dublin.

**nigel-harps1954** · 16/04/2012, 4:22 PM

Sounds good so. Looking forward to this one as much as I've looked forward to a Harps match in a long time.

**Mr A** · 16/04/2012, 4:26 PM

That should set alarm bells ringing right there!

Is Sheehan ready for a full game again.I know he got 25 minutes against youths but it would be ironic if his comeback is completed on Saturday at the scene of the crime that has kept him out for 12 months.I wish him well ....

**thomas72** · 17/04/2012, 12:27 PM

HOw did sheehan do v wexford?

**sadloserkid** · 17/04/2012, 3:17 PM

Hard to make any real judgement t72, he wasn't on long enough to show much to be honest. He seemed to be moving fairly well anyway which is a good thing.

**Jofspring** · 17/04/2012, 8:16 PM

He was lively enough but as slk says not on enough to tell too much. I think he would do well up against the harps defence with his pace and I'd say he could easily play 50 minutes or so.

**Neish** · 21/04/2012, 9:38 AM

Safe trip folks see you in Finn Park tonight. Hopefully you'll all have the honour of watching Harps 4 league win in a row

**thomas72** · 21/04/2012, 8:53 PM
