Neil McManus says it's imperative that Antrim stay in Division 1B and has identified the Saffrons' remaining ties against Dublin and Down as their biggest fixtures in years. The former Antrim forward conceded that he isn't expecting Davy Fitzgerald's side to beat Dublin at Corrigan Park in Belfast this Sunday. "I don't think there's anything more important at the minute for Antrim GAA than Antrim to stay up," said McManus. These few games are some of the biggest games we've had for a long time." I don't think Davy has that same level of depth available to him at the minute and I think Dublin have progressed as well in those three seasons.
