Glentoran made heavy weather of this County Antrim Shield tie as two late Curtis Allen goals saw us through to the second round after Queen's had taken a half time lead. Ronnie McFall resisted the temptation to make wholesale changes to the side that defeated Newry City, with the injured Robbie McDaid replaced by Sam Byrne and James Ferrin making his first appearance of the season against his former club in place of Willie Garrett.
Tuesday 18th September 2018, Kick Off 7.45pm
After a weekend off we return to action tomorrow night with a home County Antrim Shield First Round tie with Queen’s University.
We have only played Queen’s once, eight years ago to the day when we were comfortable 5-0 winners at the Oval through a hat trick from Matty Burrows and two from Daryl Fordyce.
Queen’s are currently second in the Bluefin Sport Premier Intermediate League, having won their first two matches.
Glentoran Academy is delighted to welcome Gary McAlister back to the club after a short break in a lead coaching capacity within our senior end.
Gary stepped down from his role with the under 20s at the end of last season to concentrate on his role as County Down Junior Manager.
In this exclusive interview with GlensTV, Glentoran Community Trust Chairman Jim Welsh explains the background to the recent generous GCT donation to help finance Conor Pepper's contract extension and the new signing of Cricky Gallagher.
