The draw for the quarter and semi-finals of the BetMcLean Cup was made by NIFL this afternoon.
If we win our Round Two tie with Linfield at Windsor Park on Tuesday 3rd December, our Quarter Final will be away to Ballymena United.
Dates and kick-off times to be confirmed.
Today's match at the Bet McLean Oval was a story of two penalties, questionable refereeing decisions, poor attacking play and aggressive flashpoints ultimately leading to the away side taking three undeserved points.
A minute’s silence was observed before kick-off to mark Armistice Day in the final home game before 11 November. We will remember them – always.
Congratulations to Daniel Gyollai on winning the supporters vote for Glentoran Player of the Month for October, his second win in consecutive months.
Dan kept 3 clean sheets in October and his performance in the first half of the Big Two game v Linfield put the team in a position to attack strongly after the break to go on and win the game.
Beth Stafford's latest movie themed cover has Finley Thorndike as the Glentoran Gladiator for tomorrow's Premiership clash with champions Larne. Inside John Grayden looks at Transfermarkt's somewhat quirky valuations of local players as well as the recent debate on the relative strengths of the two leagues on the island of Ireland, while William James gives the lowdown on the climax to the season south of the border.

Another big and exciting game in prospect this Saturday as Larne visit the Bet McLean Oval in match 15 of this season’s Sports Direct Premiership.
Despite having several games in hand on all the teams above them and the understandable distraction of Group Stage European games, there is no doubt that back-to-back Champions Larne will be deeply disappointed with their league performance so far.
The Draw for the October 200 Club has been made. The list of winners is below and once again we thank you for your support.

Glentoran Football Club announces the following activity to mark Remembrance Day 2024.
Five Glentoran players are in action this afternoon at The Blanchflower Stadium as the Northern Ireland Under19s take on Switzerland in the second of two preparation matches ahead of the European Championship qualifiers. A cooly slotted Aimee Kerr penalty saw the first game tied at 1-1. Good luck Kascie, Rachel, Clodagh, Aimee and Sofie!
Congratulations to Glentoran players Joel Kerr, Jack Faloona, and Milo Beimers, and former Academy players Darragh McCann and George Feeney (now with Ipswich and Spurs respectively), on their continued international recognition.
Milo has been selected to represent Canada on a tour of Costa Rica, whilst the other 4 lads have all been called into the NI U17 squad for the upcoming European Championship qualifiers.
GOOD LUCK BOYS
A crazy five minute spell in the last twenty minutes at the Showgrounds today cost Glentoran all three points and the opportunity to go second in the Sports Direct Premiership table.
Declan Devine made just one change today as James Singleton hadn’t fully recovered from a knee injury sustained against Carrick last week, but skipper Marcus Kane had recovered so started beside Frankie Hvid at centre back.
