Finn Harps fans are probably feeling quite chipper this morning.

The club made their return to SSE Airtricity Premier League action last night and recorded a shock 2-1 win over Derry City in Ballybofey. Dave Scully and Ryan Curran got the all important goals in the victory, after a massive crowd turned out for the Donegal’s side’s seasonal debut. Finn Park is one of the most famous football stadiums in the country, and with such a large numbers expected, nothing was left to chance for hungry fans. Food of course was on offer, but the club thought that instead of depending on a trusty petrol generator that powers many a burger van outside of regional venues, they had a chipper plugged into the mains. https://twitter.com/LiamPorterMedia/status/705892867068317699 There is simply no other league in the world where you would see something like this; it is uniquely irish. Greatest league in the world we say, and here’s the battered proof.
