Cliftonville boss Paddy McLaughlin hopes his players have smashed a mental barrier at a time when his team’s title credentials will come under the sharpest scrutiny.
The Reds were scarred by last month’s late collapse at Ballymena United when they led 2-0 in the 88th minute only to come away with a 2-2 draw.
Surrendering two precious points stung but McLaughlin has been impressed by the Reds’ response with three straight wins in all competitions in February.
