Harps Win Programme Of The Year

**harpskid** · 26/04/2005, 12:15 PM

The Finn Harps Matchday Programme has won the 2004 Irish Programme Club
First Division Programme of the Year.

This is the sixth time that the club has won the award, and the third time
in four years. Programme Editor Joe Doherty said: "This is a great
achievement for everyone who works on the programme and a fitting reward
for all their hard work. To win it for the third time in four years is a
remarkable achievement and goes to show the quality and consistency of the
production that is the club's matchday programme. We have a great and
dedicated programme team and this award is for all of them. We are
continuing to improve the programme all the time and hopefully the next
award isn't too far away".

The club will be presented with their award at the Irish Programme Club's
Annual Programme Fair in Dublin at the end of May.

Martinho, we have a Club Shop but we don't sell old programmes though. Only old publications we have in there is a booklet commemorating our appearance in the '99 cup final.

Yeah old fanzines can be bought. Only old programmes we have in there is ones from J.G. Mc gettigan's testimonial and also that book from the '99 cup final.

Any Longford fans coming up on Saturday should pop into the shop. The largest range of merchandise in the eL

Do the program team get a night in Dublin to collect the award Chris?

Wouldn't mind a bit of weekend on the beer with my fellow colleagues

Someone will have to go pick up the award so I think the 6 of us (meself, yerself, Joe, Bart, Scooby and Aidan) should get a night out of it
