Assistant manager leaves Finn Harps

Paddy Foy has left his position as Assistant Manager and Head of Youth Development at Finn Harps with immediate effect, due to work and other commitments.

Mr Foy managed the u-20 team, the Foyle Cup squad and the 'A' side during his time at Finn Park recruiting and developing a number of players who progressed to the senior squad.

Mr Foy, who will be taking a break from football, said: "The role as Head of Finn Harps Youth Development takes a huge amount of time and at the moment due to work and other reasons, I feel I cannot give the job the dedication I feel is required.

"I am going to take a break from the game but at some stage in the future I intend to return to coaching in senior football and hopefully that will be with Finn Harps. I thoroughly enjoyed my time working at Finn Harps and I would like to thank the Players, the Board and everyone at Finn Park for their support during my tenure."

Finn Harps will begin to look for a suitable replacement in the coming days.
