IRISH First Division side Tobermore United face another tough end of season match against Dundela tomorrow at Fortwilliam Park.
Manager Aidy McLaughlin said while he was disappointed with his side's performance last Saturday when they lost 4-0 to Ballyclare Comrades, he still had confidence in the squad's ability.
"My aim from the start of the season was a top six finish a
nd I believe we can still do that," he said.
With six league matches remaining, McLaughlin and his assistant Sam Shiels are philosophical about losing against Comrades.
"We were very disappointed but weren't too hard on the lads after Saturday's defeat because they have been playing well and these things happen in football.
"Their performance was flat from the beginning and they were up against a better side."
McLaughlin's aim now is to pick up as many points as possible from the remaining matches.
"Dundela will be hard to beat but if the lads can pick themselves up after Saturday anything is possible."
The same Tobermore side will turn out tomorrow night against Dundela as faced Ballyclare.
McLaughlin and Shiels are limited in who they can play as four players are committed to the junior international squad.
The Duns match kicks-off at 6.30pm on Tuesday at Fortwilliam Park.
