Larne boss Gary Haveron says the decision to abandon his side's game with Glentoran at the Oval due to floodlight failure was '100% the right call'.
Larne head coach Gary Haveron said the decision to abandon his side's game with Glentoran at the Oval due to floodlight failure was "100% the right call".
"There were a few technical issues with the floodlights and I'm led to believe it was a problem with a generator that was overheating and leaking," Haveron told BBC Sport NI. "If the lights weren't going to be able to come on and we weren't going to be able to finish the game, there was little point in playing on and having the game abandoned in the dying stages as we lost the light," Haveron added."It doesn't suit either team, you would rather have the points on the board, but we look forward to Tuesday and both sets of players will have more in their legs now as they've only played half a game.
