IFA C'ship One: McCrudden return a boost for Stute ahead of Donegal Celtic clash

New signing Oisin McMenamin is expected to be included the Institute squad for this afternoon’s IFA Championship One clash against Donegal Celtic in Belfast (kick off 3.00pm).

Also set to feature is Michael McCrudden (pictured) who has returned to the Derry club after a spell with Ballinamallard United.

The 24-year-old scored 27 goals in 67 appearances for Stute from 2012-15.

During his time with Ballinamallard last season, he found the net twice in 18 appearances.

Captain Graham Crown, who missed their last game at Queen’s a few weeks ago, returns for this afternoon’s clash.
