Despite a difficult season in the Premiership, Larne boss Gary Haveron insists 'any team in the league' would swap positions with his side after their historic European run.
Gary Haveron insists "any team in the league" would swap positions with Larne as he laughed off jibes that the Inver Park club's "bubble has burst".
It has been a season punctuated with some success, however, notably the club's historic run in Europe which saw them reach the league phase of the UEFA Conference League. "Dylan Sloan played nearly every minute of every game since the start of the season. He is 45 games deep. It is difficult for a young player.
"But would any team in our league not want to swap positions with us? Would any club not want to have that European campaign and experience? Haveron added: "We have had to suffer at stages this season, but every club should want to be in the group stages of European competition because it is the pinnacle of club football.
