Match Preview: Glentoran v Linfield

Mon, 23/12/2019 - 21:07

Thursday 26th December 2019. Kick off 3.00pm.

On Thursday we welcome our old rivals Linfield in the Boxing Day “Big Two” match, the fixture yet again likely to command the year’s biggest club league attendance in Ireland.

Glentoran go into this year’s game in a very different position and in a very different frame of mind. We enter it on a ten-game unbeaten league run whereas last season we went to the National Stadium on the back of a seven-game winless league run. The result that day reflected the relative positions of the two teams.

Carrick Rangers 0-1 Glentoran

Sat, 21/12/2019 - 22:28

It was a day when football, rightly, took a back seat. A day when both the Carrick Rangers and Glentoran families stood together, united in grief.  The loss of Jerry Thompson and Harrie Kane, infant son of our skipper Marcus, has touched us all deeply and we struggle with the big question. Why? 

 

There are no words. All we can do is stand alongside the families who are devastated. We assure both of them, you remain in our thoughts and prayers, both now and in the days to come.
