    EASTER Monday’s eagerly anticipated Harry Clarke final features Castlewellan Forest and Killough, two teams desperate to get their hands back on the trophy.

    Killough will be out to avenge the 3-2 defeat to Strangford in last year’s final, while Forest are aiming to win their first Harry Clarke Cup in seven years.

    Both teams reached the final following dramatic semi-final victories, with a 96th minute winner sending Forest through versus Ballynahinch Young Men while Killough came from 3-2 down to win 4-3 against Downpatrick.

    Killough manager Conor Doyle is anticipating a tough game from Forest, a side he describes as their “bogey team”.
