Glentoran 1-1 Carrick Rangers

Sat, 19/10/2024 - 19:39

A pulsating contest at the Bet McLean Oval finished all square despite the home side dominating the majority of proceedings. Many may relish an opportunity to replay their chances, perhaps most tellingly a last minute penalty miss as the full time whistle loomed. A
resilient Carrick Rangers side deserve credit in battling for a point, but the Glens will feel this represents two dropped points.

We reckon when Danny Amos signed for the Glens he didn’t think he would star in a poster for The Exorcist. However, he didn’t count on the vision of graphic artist Beth Stafford whose latest fabulous work, which features the former Northern Ireland u21 international, fronts Saturday’s Glentoran Gazette. It’s an edition which acknowledges a new era for Carrick Rangers while Glens manager Declan Devine warns that Stephen Baxter’s side has overcome poor early season form.

Fixture News: Bet McLean Cup Linfield Away

We have been informed that our Bet McLean League Cup 2nd round tie away to Linfield will now be rescheduled to Tuesday 3rd December.

NIFL have explained that this is due to a UEFA Competitions Regulation that states a venue cannot be used 48 hours before a European or International game.

Glentoran 2-0 Dungannon Swifts

Sat, 12/10/2024 - 22:19

Another game of two halves at the Bet McLean Oval today as a pretty nondescript and largely incident free first 45 minutes was followed by a performance of outstanding confidence and control by the home side.

Declan Devine continued with the team from last week’s Big Two win at the National Stadium, restoring Cameron Palmer to central midfield and  Daniel Gyollai to goal with Tuesday’s County Antrim Shield man of the match Finlay Thorndike to the bench.  However Thorndike was to play and contribute for over an hour.

Glentoran Women 1–1 Linfield Ladies

Fri, 11/10/2024 - 22:47

Glentoran ended the 2024 season with the points shared at Ashfield tonight in what was effectively a dead rubber last game.

Both goals came in a 6-minute spell at the end of the first half. First the Blues took the lead on 39 minutes when a left-wing break put Rhyleigh Marks in the position to strike home.

However the Glens struck back quickly just inside first half injury time. Emily Wilson broke through the middle and lobbed the keeper from just outside the box, It was Wilson’s 15th goal of the season and one of her best.

Saturday’s Glentoran Gazette, the match programme that crams more into its 40 pages than many of its counterparts in England and Scotland achieve in issues twice the size, is worth collecting alone for Beth Stafford’s latest quirky cover of Paddy McClean on the iron throne from Game of Thrones.
