Glenavon boss Gary Hamilton says ill-discipline and two moments of “madness” from senior players cost the Lurgan Blues a crucial win at the Ballymena Showgrounds on Saturday.
Red cards for defender Danny Wallace and midfielder Robert Garrett came back to haunt the visitors who twice led but had to settle for a 3-3 draw at the Warden Street venue.
Wallace picked up a second yellow card on the hour mark for his part in an ugly melee which also saw United defender Conor Keeley receive his marching orders.
