Antrim attacker Conor Murray says safety remains the priority for the Saffrons as they seek their third win in Division 3 of the Allianz Football League this weekend.

The Glensmen currently sit top of the table ahead of Westmeath and Limerick on score difference as they get set to travel to take on Laois tomorrow evening (throw-in 6pm).

Speaking to BelfastLive.co.uk ahead of the Portlaoise clash, Murray says Antrim are just concentrating on taking the two points from O’Moore Park this weekend.

“To be honest we haven’t spoken about staying in the Division or getting promotion or anything. We’ve been taking it each game and trying to get the two points,” he said.

“Going to Laois on Saturday, if we leave with two points. . . yeah you are probably going to be guaranteed to stay in Division 3.

“Then, you’d be looking at the other end of the table and seeing if you can go and get promoted to Division 2.

“Nobody wants to go back down to Division 4. I think Saturday’s game is probably one of the biggest games that this management team and this squad is going to have.

“We’ll know what the situation is after Saturday - who is pushing for promotion and who is in a relegation dogfight.”
