OLLIE HORGAN’S jigsaw is beginning to come together with Michael Funston and Thomas McMonagle the latest pair to commit to Finn Harps for the 2017 season.

Following the retirement of Kevin McHugh last year, Bonagee man Funston is the most experience campaigner in the Harps dressing room having played 321 times for the club.

The midfielder has been an integral member of the return to and subsequent survival in the Premier Division under Horgan.

In 2016 he started 10 league games and came from the bench in a further 13, while he also started two games in cup competitions.

Burnfoot’s McMonagle is a versatile operator, most comfortable at centre-back or at left-back and has featured 105 times in the Harps shirt.

“We’re glad we got it sorted out with the two lads, they have a lot of experience and know the standard required at this stage,” Horgan said.

“They have both played a big part in getting us to where we are now and will no doubt prove themselves again in the battle we face this season.”
