home to Finn Harps

Hey all

Just wondering what date your home game against Finn Harps will be played. Looking into organising a bus to it but both the Harps and Longford websites have the date down as TBC. Please let it be a Saturday as i probably won't be able to make a Friday game

Thats what I thought but as both websites have it a s TBC I was wondering, can anyone confirm the date?

**Town Legend** · 19/08/2013, 4:55 PM

Hardly a midweek game? Don't they normally play 2 rounds midweek over the season??

That is what I'm beginning to think. Its a balls if it is, as I had planned on this being my next(and most likely last) away trip this season. Probably won't make a Friday and defiantly not a mid-week game due to work commitments

I'd be happy with that but can never rely on RTE when it comes to the LOI especially the 1st Division

Lads I'd be nearly sure it's the Saturday night. I think the reason it's down as TBC is because the Ireland match is Friday night and the FAI probably have the whole round of fixtures as TBC. Don't take it as a certainty but I'd be confident that's the reason behind it

TC said on Shannonside before waterford game he was injured. Agree with you Fitzy to go from top to hanging on from Mervue is disgraceful and what's even worse is its been let happen by keeping a totally inept manager in charge. Surely he must go if we are humiliated on Saturday night as I expect harps to win 3 or 4-0

**Mr A** · 03/09/2013, 4:40 PM

You couldn't be playing us at a better time. We sent the second string to Cobh last week and are likely to experiment again this week (although Hutton may decide against it obviously) as the only important match of our season is the cup quarter final the weekend after.

All that and we're not very good anyway, so you really, really should be beating us.

I predicted earlier in the year that Longford might crumble due to Cousins having a bit of history on that front. I'm not even sure how a manager can do that, but he seems to have the knack.

**Darklordsbane** · 03/09/2013, 6:41 PM

Well the 2nd string murdered Cobh and they beat us 4-3,
Cousins has to grow a pair and drop O' Brien, tell Bennion to pass the ball and stop hoofing it over our midfield, (Connelly and Gorman can pass the ball), also play the young lad that played right back against Drogheda and please give Ebbe a run for more than 10 minutes, play an attacking/pressurised style of football and keep doing it not just until we score and then drop back to defend,
Wishful thinking I suppose but we can dream

The second string were beaten by Cobh 3-2.

**Darklordsbane** · 03/09/2013, 8:04 PM

I was talking to a Finn Harps man he told me his team won the cup replay 4 nil. Sorry I didn't check I believed him
