Ards aim to move out of basement but Bannsiders are boosted by new recruits

Q Radio Sport

Ards will aim to move off the bottom of the Danske Bank Premiership on Friday night (8pm). 

A win in Bangor against Coleraine would see them go a point clear of Newry City in the standings.

The teams had a scoreless draw at the same venue in September as Rodney McAree was taking over as Coleraine boss.

However, the Bannsiders have found their form in recent weeks and have been boosted by a number of new signings. 

Ards also have new faces though.

Meanwhile, Cliftonville and Institute have dipped into the market...
