Speaking following Monday night’s meeting of Mid & East Antrim Council, he told The Ballymena Times: “I am delighted to learn at tonight’s Mid & East Antrim Council meeting that we have secured funding to deliver a 3G MUGA in Portglenone at the current event space.
“As a local Councillor for the Bannside, I have been campaigning for better provision for football in Portglenone since 2015.

“Around £450k has been secured to deliver this 3g MUGA, which will provide a much needed resource for young people and potentially Portglenone teams to be developed, said Alderman Nicholl.
He added: “Thereafter, it is my vision and aim for the area that a further grass pitch be provided and I continue to press Council to identify the land to deliver this for the Portglenone community.”
