Almost all editions of the previous six issues have sold out - although a small amount of issue 6 are still available - and the new fanzine will be on sale at Fridayโ€™s game between Finn Harps and Longford Town at Finn Park.

In The Colours Of My Harps, ๐๐š๐ซ๐ญ๐ฅ๐ž๐ฒ ๐‘๐š๐ฆ๐ฌ๐š๐ฒ features a red (yes, red!) Finn Harps jersey, which was worn by Finn Harps goalkeeper Ciaran Gallagher in 2011.

Ciaran has returned to the club as goalkeeping coach in recent weeks.
Bartley also charts the recent fortunes of the Finn Harps womenโ€™s and youth teams.

Lifelong Finn Harps fan ๐‰๐จ๐ž๐ฒ ๐Ž'๐‹๐ž๐š๐ซ๐ฒ, a former club chairman, shares his rollercoaster journey following the club in Harps And Me and tells how he got involved at Board level.

It has been a time of change at Finn Harps in the last month - and to delve into it all, issue 6 of The Finn Park Tone will go on sale this week.

The new fanzine has proved a big hit on the Finn Park terraces with the first five issues selling out in double quick time.

The new edition will hit the market for Friday nightโ€™s game between Finn Harps and Cobh Ramblers at Finn Park.

Former Harps midfielder Michael Funston - one of only 10 players to play over 300 games for the club - features in The Big Interview with Chris McNulty. In The View From The Box column, Chris also assesses what has been a busy and sometimes confusing month behind the scenes for the club.

Shane Bell reflects on what has been a difficult period for the Finn Harps first team while Joe Doherty looks back at the managerial reign of Kevin McHugh, who left the club under a cloud at the end of July. Joe also brings us the latest facts and figures for the season so far.

Tommy Dullaghan has been following Harps since their early days as a League of Ireland club and has filled a variety of roles around Finn Park. Tommy tells his story in this monthโ€™s Harps and Me.

Local journalist Paddy Walsh is dreaming of big nights on the pitch after a recent trip to the Johan Cruyff Arena in the Netherlands.

In The Colours Of My Harps, Bartley Ramsay takes a unique Harps shirt off the hanger; this one a shirt in the mould of a Coventry City jersey which Harps wore in the 1995/96 season - with Harps playing against Coventry that same season.

Bartley also looks back at recent games for the Finn Harps Womenโ€™s and Academy sides and Derry City fan Brian Dunleavy talks about his thoughts When I Think Of Finn Harps.

The edition is, once again, illustrated by photographs from the lens of Joe Boland from North West Newspix.

Issue 4 of The Finn Park Tone, the recently-launched monthly Finn Harps fanzine, will be on sale this week - and fans will get a free gift with each purchase.

The first three editions proved a massive hit with Finn Harps fans. Indeed, all copies of the first three issues have now completely sold out.

Harps supporters can pick up issue 4 at Fridayโ€™s game between Finn Harps and UCD at Finn Park.

For just โ‚ฌ3, Harps fans will get a bumper edition of content and each copy will contain a free The Finn Park Tone sticker.

In this monthโ€™s Big Interview, Chris McNulty talks to a somewhat lesser known former Harps player. Kemajl Avdiu, who fled Kosovo for Sweden as a young boy, might only have been at Harps for 10 games, but he netted four goals in that spell in 2000 - and 26 years, in a fascinating interview, he speaks with a glowing fondness for the club.

In The Colours of my Harps, Barley Ramsay tells the curious story of a Finn Harps number 5 shirt from the 1980s that was passed onto him after someone found it in the PE cupboard of a local school. The jersey was won by the likes of Paul Curran and Harry Walsh.

Bartley Ramsay also looks back on the recent difficulty period of games for the Finn Harps Academy.

Donegal journalist and Finn Harps fan Paddy Walsh recalls the visit of Charlie Nicholas to Finn Park with Celtic and wonders what some Everton fans would make of Finn Park if they could only see it now . . .

Chris McNulty discusses some uncertain times for Harps, amid some worrying commentary from diehard fans in recent weeks, and asks, in the View From The Box column, โ€˜which way now at the crossroads?โ€™

In the latest Harps and Me feature, Peadar Conroy from Kilcar gives us his take on starting to get behind Harps despite being from a predominantly GAA area and UCD fan Stephen Joyce focusses on The Students, who are of course managed by former Harps assistant manager William Oโ€™Connor.

Joe Doherty breaks down the facts and figures of the season so far while Shane Bell charts the last few games from the Finn Harps first team.
The edition is, once again, illustrated by photographs from the lens of Joe Boland from North West Newspix.
