Glenavon 1-1 Glentoran

Sat, 01/09/2018 - 22:11

The teams came onto the pitch today with an announcement from the Glenavon tannoy in recognition that today marked Elliott Morris’ incredible 700th match for Glentoran, a full 16 years after making his debut. Elliott was offered the captaincy to mark the landmark but declined as he felt the team was more important than any personal milestone. A fantastic attitude from a true Glentoran legend.
