Five things we have noticed in the Premier Intermediate League this season

1. Knowhow is vital to title hopes

Annagh United’s experienced heads should provide the requisite strength of character needed to sustain their on-course promotion tilt over the coming months.

2. Law’s order could rule supreme

Watch out for – and rule out at your peril – Portstewart who have plenty of quality, depths of spirit and an absolute winner in their manager Johnny Law.

3. Swans need to recover quickly

After a stellar start to the season, back-to-back defeats in league and cup have rocked Newington but they must rediscover their balance before that Steel and Sons semi-final.

4. Fortwilliam is embattled

Tobermore’s poor league form goes beyond just this season – they ended the 2018/19 campaign with just two wins in the last seven – and concerns must be growing at Fortwilliam.

5. Irish Cup 5th round hopes for four

Fewer league games strengthens the potential prize for Banbridge Town, Dollingstown, Limavady United and Bangor trying to reach the Irish Cup fifth round.
