THE Football Association of Ireland confirmed this afternoon, Wednesday, that all games scheduled to take place in the SSE Airtricity League this weekend have been postponed.
“Following a detailed monitoring process, where the FAI worked closely with all clubs, it was decided to postpone all games in the Premier and First Divisions due to current severe weather conditions and future forecasts from Met Eireann,” the statement read.
It’s been a disappointing start to the new season for Harps boss Ollie Horgan and his players.
Last weekend’s league opener against Drogheda United at United Park was called off just minutes before the scheduled kick-off time due to an insufficient number of light bulbs.
