David Cawley joins Finn Harps from Sligo Rovers
David Cawley will play First Division football in 2024 after signing for Finn Harps on a one-year deal.
Playing with Sligo Rovers, Galway United and St. Patrick’s Athletic, Cawley has registered 300 appearances in the Premier Division.
The Ballina man spent four seasons at Ipswich Town in England but returned to Ireland in 2011.
He won a 2012 Premier Division winners medal, and an FAI Cup victory the following year.
The 32-year-old made 23 appearances for the Bit O'Red last season as club captain.
“I’m delighted to sign with Finn Harps for next season” Cawley said.
“When I got the call, I knew it was the right move for me”.
“I’ve had many battles with Harps during my career and Finn Park has always been a tough place to go, so I’m excited to have it be my home ground now and hopefully we can make the place a real fortress next season and kick up on the table.
“It’s a great club, with great fans behind the scenes and on the terraces. I’m buzzing to get to work with the lads now in preseason and to get out in front of the fans once the season starts in February.”
The club is thrilled to announce the signing of David Cawley for the 2024 season!
