Owen McLaughlin made it 5-4 to the hosts from the edge of the box before Danny Laverty chipped in number six.

The best goal of the night was scored by Ryan ‘Tiny’ McLaughlin who dinked the ‘keeper from 25 yards out to round off the scoring.

What made the scoreline even more impressive was the fact Moore, Jamison, Cunningham and McConaghie had played for Ballymoney Youths earlier in the day.

The team’s management singled out Tiny McLaughlin and Thomas Hunter for special praise on the day.

Stranocum have a number of fixtures lined up for the coming weeks, see the Times for details.
