RUAIDHRI Higgins sat down for an interview with Coleraine TV ahead of the Irish Cup final on Saturday…

The manager started the conversation by saying how he, the staff and the players are looking forward to the showpiece decider at Windsor Park.

He further commented on the Bannsiders’ route to the final as they have navigated through four rounds, as well as highlighting how Dungannon Swifts deserve praise for reaching back-to-back finals.

Higgins says he has had “butterflies” in his stomach when asked about ‘Operation Blue and White’ after the town has been covered in blue and white colours.
