Ivan Sproule says that if his Dergview team causes a massive upset by defeating Ballymena United on Tuesday evening to reach the semi-finals of the Irish Cup it will be the greatest achievement in the club’s 41-year history.
The Derg outfit reached the quarter-finals of the premier cup competition for the first time by defeating St James’ Swifts 2-0 at Ferney Park on Saturday thanks to two goals by striker Sean McCarron.
That victory combined with Ballymena’s 5-0 win over the PSNI has, according to Sproule, set up a David-versus-Goliath last-eight tie at the Ballymena showgrounds.
