It’s been a tough ten days for Harps, after a great 2-2 draw with Derry City, they’ve hit a real slump in form.
League champions Dundalk hit them for seven at Finn Park, while St Pat’s followed that up with a 4-0 win at Richmond Park.
Then last week, non-league Crumlin United sent Harps crashing out of the FAI Cup at Finn Park.
It’s been a difficult week for Harps, but Horgan had warned that there would be tough days and weeks during their return to the Premier Division.
Such is life in the top-flight, there really is no easy games, and Harps face a tough task in Tallaght tomorrow.
Pat Fenlon’s side have flattered to deceive this season, but on their day, their capable of beating any team in the country.
Horgan is aware of how good a side the Hoops are, and will be hoping to get a response from his team, who have shipped an alarming twelve goals in three games.
Barry Molloy will sit this one out, he was shown a red card against Crumlin, but Raymond Foy is fit again, and he may see some game time.
The game is scheduled for a 3pm KO, All LOI fixtures were moved to Sunday due to Ireland’s international friendly against Holland at the Aviva Stadium last night.
