Glentoran fans have hit out at the East Belfast club’s Irish Cup expulsion by holding a banner protest prior to Saturday’s Danske Bank Premiership game at the Ballymena Showgrounds.
As the two teams ran out at the Warden Street venue, a large black and white sign was unfurled by a section of the travelling support in the away stand.
The banner, measuring approximately 30 feet wide and 10 feet tall, included an Irish Football Association crest with a red cross through it.
