In another 40-page edition of the Glentoran Gazette Mick McDermott highlights the need for Stormont to move on the stadia funding and reveals the club had to turn away 2,000 fans for the recent Big Two league match. We have some advice for NIFL negotiators dealing with the politicians while Paul Vance asks why the Oval’s capacity is limited to 6,000 and the 1923 Supporters' Committee query the way the online ticketing for games is operated. There’s also the small matter of an Irish Cup quarter-final to consider and the Gazette team focus on the threat NIFL Championship leaders Newry City pose while Norman Ternahan shines the spotlight on Robbie McDaid’s remarkable Irish Cup record. Sean Murray is the cover star chosen by Beth Stafford and Joe Burns; Brian McClelland remembers Albert Finlay, the goalkeeper known as Spiderman and Henry Muldrew fondly recalls midfielder Ray Morrison. And as the Premiership race heats up, Tommy Sewell and Norman Ternahan review recent games in words and pictures. The Gazette, by the fans for the fans, is still only £3.
