First Glentoran goals from Cameron Stewart and Cricky Gallagher – one in each half – helped Glentoran to a hard worked and convincing win at Solitude this afternoon, our first win there in nearly four years. This extended our unbeaten Danske Bank Premiership run to seven matches. In that period, we have taken nineteen points out of a possible twenty-one, representing our strongest league run since the start of the 2012/13 season.
Glentoran FC is delighted to announce the signing of central defender Keith Cowan, and to welcome Keith to the Oval.
Keith, from Ramelton in County Donegal, has spent his entire senior career to date with his boyhood club, Finn Harps in the League of Ireland, most recently as captain in the SSE Airtricity Premiership. He made over 240 appearances for Harps before this week announcing his intention to leave Finn Park.

Fresh from his hat trick heroics against Dungannon Swifts on Saturday, Robbie McDaid went straight to the Oval Milk Bar to receive yet another Player of the Year 2018/19 award - this the Victoria Glentoran Supporters' Club Roy Manson Player of the Year Award. Roy Manson's grandsons flew over from Manchester with their parents to present Robbie the trophy in their late grandad's name.
Glentoran made it six wins in seven Danske Bank Premiership games with an emphatic 6-1 win against Dungannon Swifts at the Oval this afternoon. The last time the two teams met, at Stangmore Park in August, the Glens were on the wrong end of a 3-1 score line in what was probably our worst performance of the season. Today was different and although we hit 6 goals you feel that there is still more to come from this side.
