Match Preview: Queen's University v Glentoran
Saturday 5th February
1.30pm Kick Off
On Saturday we continue our quest for the Samuel Gelston's Whiskey Irish Cup with a second round journey across the city to the Dub for the second time in three years.
Our last visit was at the same stage in February 2020 and turned out much closer than had been expected as a Queen’s equalised twice before Robbie McDaid completed his hat trick to clinch a 3-2 win for the eventual cup winners.
Obituary: Matt Crothers
Everyone at Glentoran is saddened to hear of the passing of our player from the fifties and sixties, Matt Crothers.
Matt, a left back who played through the Glentoran Thirds and Seconds, made his first team debut in the 1957/58 season. He made 163 appearances in his six seasons as a squad member and was voted Glentoran Player of the Year for 1961/62.

Rhys wins January fans vote
Rhys Marshall has become the only the second player to be voted Glentoran Player of the Month in 2021-2022 by winning the January vote.
Rhys played every minute of our league wins over Cliftonville, Crusaders, Coleraine and Warrenpoint Town, and our Samuel Gelston’s Whiskey Irish Cup victory at Dergview. He won 49% of the supporter vote.
Mal heads north on loan
The club has agreed to Ballymena United’s request to take Mal Smith on loan until the end of this season.
Mal is under contract until the end of 2022/23 season but the Head Coach has agreed that it would be beneficial for the player to get regular game time in the Danske Bank Premiership before returning to fight for his place at Glentoran next season
Glentoran 1-0 Warrenpoint Town
A single goal victory at the Bet McLean Oval coupled with results elsewhere sees Glentoran sit top of the Danske Bank Premiership this evening.
Jay Donnelly was the only change to the team which defeated Coleraine on Tuesday evening, Glentoran's leading goal scorer this season, coming in for Michael O'Connor.
