Glentoran beat Crusaders 2-0 to move onto 44 points with 3 games in hand. Win those and they are 3 points behind Cliftonville. doesn't sound difficult when you say it quick.

I couldn't get the BBC stream to play, so don't know what like the game was.

Crusaders beat Bangor 2-1 in last night's Irish Cup match.

Big games today: Cliftonville v Coleraine, Larne v Linfield and maybe a shock at Shamrock Park as the Ports entertain Glentoran.

Coleraine and Linfield eliminated on penalties in the Irish Cup, by Cliftonville and Larne respectively.

Ballymena ease past Newington, and 2 late goals spare Dungannon Swifts blushes in east Belfast.

Glentorand do the business at Shamrock Park, and Glenavon are the fall guys, losing 1-0 to the Welders at Mourneview.

Ballyclare win the battle of the minnows, winning 1-0 at the Brandywell against Institute.

Quarter finals   https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/64524145 - Crusaders v Glentoran the big one, but Ballyclare v Ballymena could be interesting. The Welders v Larne and Cliftonville v Swifts are the other 2 games.

Larne beat Glenavon 3-0 to go back to the top. I watched Hamilton v Hearts until Hearts scored, and then switched over. Larne comfortable winners. Second half Glenavon had most of the ball without really threatening, and then Larne waltzed up the park and scored their third through Bonis. Thought the Glenavon 'keeper was poor at all 3 goals.

After the weekend's action, Larne are top on goal difference over Cliftonville with a game in hand, with Linfield, winners over Cliftonville, a point behind. Three points behind in fourth are Crusaders who won 3-0 against the Swifts at Seaview, fifth are Coleraine a point further back after a 2-2 draw with Glentoran, who are sixth, 6 points behind the Bannsiders, but with 3 games in hand over everybody in front of them, except Larne where they have only 2 games in hand.

Portadown, despite a draw at Ballymena, are still 11 points behind play off spot Dungannon Swifts, who are 3 points behind Newry City.

Larne and Cliftonville beat the bottom two, both by 3-0, and with Glentoran scudding Linfield 3-0, pull away slightly from the Belfast Blues. Coleraine, defeating Newry 1-0, leapfrog Crusaders into fourth as Glenavon hold Crusders to a draw. Carrick defeated Ballymena in the other game.

We've had a few dodgy decisions against us since the Glens were denied a stonewaller at Seaview in December. Add another one for Tuesday. I'm going home next week for a spell. I've missed the Irish League. Firhill has been brutal.

1-1 at the Showgrounds at half time, probably fair enough. Appalling conditions.

ETA: 2 quick goals at the start of the second half, and Glentoran run out comfortable winners, 3-1. Glens remain sixth.

At the bottom Dungannon win at another Showgrounds to move level with Newry.

Larne reinforce their title credentials with a win over Cliftonville to go 3 points clear at the top, with a game in hand. (Against Ballymena this Tuesday.)

Linfield and Crusaders both win, too.

And Portadown get points off someone other than Ballymena, as they win the Mid Ulster derby.

When did Larne last win the league?

Have they ever?

What's the story with their ascendancy? Good manager and squad or have they 'done a Darvel'?
