Tomorrow's Gazette

Fri, 12/11/2021 - 12:04

This weekend’s Glentoran Gazette editorial raises the subject of Sunday football, once banned, now approved but seldom used and previews the visit of two Glenmen back at the Oval after 50 years. Ahead of the latest league game Mick McDermott tells why he was disappointed with the midweek defeat by Coleraine but says there were a lot of good individual performances that he hopes to build on, while Bill Wray says Ballymena come into the match on a high after successive league and league cup wins.

Coleraine 2-0 Glentoran

Wed, 10/11/2021 - 02:21

A goal in each half took Coleraine into the semi-final of the Bet McLean League Cup tonight and extended Glentoran’s winless run at the Showgrounds to twelve games and five and a half years.

Mick McDermott was forced into a number of changes from Saturday’s home win over Warrenpoint. Ross Glendinning returned in goal for the suspended Aaron McCarey while Mal Smith started at right back for Rhys Marshall, rested due to still feeling the effects of the injury sustained at Carrick recently. Gael Bigirimana returned to midfield with Ben Cushnie returning to the bench for this one.

Sun, 07/11/2021 - 21:15

On Saturday evening, the Hillfoot GSC clubrooms on the Castlereagh Road, welcomed its officers, members, Glentoran players and officials to the club’s annual Player pf the Year Awards Night for the 2020/2021 season. However it was a bit different this year as club Chairman Gareth Turkington also presented the 2019/2020 awards in light of the fact the event could not be held last year.

The 2020/2021 awards were presented as follows:

Player of the Year: Luke McCullough

Young Player of the Year: Caolan Marron

Sat, 06/11/2021 - 18:44

Prior to kick off, Glentoran Chairman, Stephen Henderson, club captain, Marcus Kane and club Chaplain, Rev. David Thompson conducted an Act of Rememberance on the Oval pitch.

To use an old football cliche, it was very much a game of two halves as Glentoran faced Warrenpoint Town at the Bet McLean Oval this afternoon in the Danske Bank Premiership.
