Jordan Jenkins is Beth Stafford’s cover star for the latest edition of your multi award-winning Glentoran Gazette as we welcome Crusaders to The BetMcLean Oval in the BoyleSports Premiership.

Inside, the 1923 Committee argues that Larne cannot have their cake and eat it when it comes to fixture scheduling, while Henry Muldrew continues his World Cup series with an assessment of England’s semi-final against Argentina.
