The Invermen have had to deal with added pressure following their cup exit to Ballymena United and seeing their lead at the top of the Irish Premiership cut to five points.
But they answered their critics in fine style with a dominant display against Glentoran on Friday night running out 2-0 winners in the end with Glynn opening the scoring at Inver Park.
