With the club celebrating it's 130th birthday before kick off with a special presentation of some of our most iconic legends, this will hopefully inspire Glentoran's current crop into a memorable performance against Portadown in the Danske Bank Premiership at 3pm tomorrow afternoon. After suffering our first league defeat of the campaign last weekend at Seaview, it is vitally important we bounce back with a positive result in this game.
Tomorrow is a momentous day in the history of Glentoran FC.

With Jason Hill, Jimmy Callacher and Andrew Waterworth all missing through injury it was a much changed Glentoran side which took the field at Drumahoe to face Institute in the Irn-Bru League Cup.
Goalkeeping coach, David McClelland, met with Eddie Patterson at training last night and tendered his resignation. The club would like to place on record their thanks and appreciation for David’s 6 years service at Glentoran FC and wish him all the best for the future.
Glentoran Seconds have made an excellent start to the season and suffered just one defeat since they got underway in August. In the IFA Reserve League they are behind Ballinamallard United II's on goal difference but have an all important game in hand. (League table HERE)
