Sport and Leisure Swifts relegated from Bluefin Sport Premier Intermediate League

Sport and Leisure Swifts have been relegated from the Bluefin Sport Premier Intermediate League.

Packie McAllister's side weren't in action on Saturday as their final game of the season against Lisburn Distillery was postponed due to the weather.

But it proved immaterial in the end as nearest relegation rivals Armagh City beat Annagh United 2-0 to secure their PIL stats for next season.

Shea Campbell gave Armagh the lead from the penalty spot and McAnnallen doubled their lead.

And that's how it remained as City held on for a big win.

Dollingstown also earned a 1-0 win over Newington to guarantee their participation in the league next season - Gary Liggett with the goal.

It confirmed Sport and Leisure's relegation, while Annagh now go into a promotion/relegation playoff with the PSNI who defeated Ballyclare Comrade 3-1 to finish 11th in the Championship.

Queen's won the PIL title and will be promoted to the Championship.

Belfast Celtic League of Ireland move not being ruled out by club officials 

Sport and Leisure are expected to change their name to Belfast Celtic this summer as part of  major rebranding of the West Belfast club.

Following their relegation they could end up playing in the Ballymena and Provincial League.

But it recently emerged that talks have been held with the FAI over a Belfast Celtic League of Ireland move not being ruled out by club officials.
