    This is due to be our last season in Finn Park but who knows, if theres a delay it could be the 2011 season before we are in. The pitch is the big factor from what im told, the stands and all are not going to hold things up.

    The developer gets Finn Park as part of the deal.

    Its still going ahead, funded by the sale of current ground to the developer. New Finn Park? 6,680 seats afaik. Four stands on each side. The plans were on their site a year ago.

    Legally that wont be their concern now. Thats one for the contractor and has nothing to do with Harps.
    The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.

    It'll be a concern to Finn Harps if the contractor goes bust..

    Seriously, who would build an apartment complex in Ballybofey?

    Two things can happen ...

    Contractor goes bust and Harps keep Finn Park
    New Ground is finished, handed over and everything is signed, sealed and finished and Harps get the new ground.

    Its an either or situation, black or white. Harps, legally should no suffer (obviously they will want to get to the new ground though)
    The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.

    There are government grants also available, its not Harps concern what the builder does with the ground as long as The new Finn Park is finsihed.

    At present the builder claims they are not under pressure and will not be folding, this has been looked into as the current financial melt down amoungst developers had the board worried but they have been assured the ground will be completed.

    Its almost as if people can't wait for it to fall through.

    I wish the project well.

    But how big are those holes in Stranolar?
