Glentoran 0 – 0 Coleraine

Wed, 21/08/2024 - 00:28

The teams shared the spoils in tonight’s entertaining game at the Bet McClean Oval. On a night dominated by robust defences, Glentoran can perhaps count themselves unlucky not to have taken all three points. A good performance underpinned by several excellent individual outings and a robust sense of teamwork can provide encouragement for the season ahead.

The game itself started brightly, with both teams passing the ball with intent in the early stages. Even from the outset, it looked like it might take a piece of individual brilliance or a mistake to break the deadlock.

The games come thick and fast with a new look Coleraine side coming to face the new look Glens at the Bet McLean Oval.

Coleraine have four points from their first two games with an opening day away 1-1 draw with Dungannon Swifts followed by a hard won 4-2 derby win over Ballymena on Friday evening. Anyone who watched that feisty affair on the BBC iPlayer will have been impressed with their resilience in that game.

Obituary: Bertie Taylor

Sun, 11/08/2024 - 16:21

We were deeply saddened to hear of the passing earlier this week of lifelong Glenman Bertie Taylor, at the age of 95 years old. We pass on deepest condolences to Bertie's family and friends.

This interview with Bertie appeared in the Belfast Telegraph in October 2021. We believe it is a fitting epitaph to a great member of the Glentoran family and are proud to reproduce it by way of a tribute.

Genial Glentoran fan Bertie Taylor has a host of tales to tell
