Main Street businesses Ann’s Pantry and Prestige Flooring and Bathrooms have come out in a show of support.
Larne FC is calling on local businesses to paint the town red after Prestige Flooring and Bathroom was decorated with scarves, hats, balloons and programmes from cup ties from previous seasons.
Specially decorated German biscuits have gone on sale at Ann’s Pantry home bakery in the hope that a double win will be the icing on the cake for Larne.
