Glenavon boss Gary Hamilton says the Irish League “player of the year” was the difference in Tuesday night’s European play-off with Glentoran at the BetMcLean Oval.
Glens winger Conor McMenamin produced a classy finish and also crossed for Jay Donnelly to add a second as the Lurgan Blues were beaten 2-0 in East Belfast.
And while Linfield midfielder Chris Shields was named NI Footballer of the Year at the weekend, Hamilton believes McMenamin is currently the league’s outstanding talent.
