As Chairman of the GCT I guess you get to have more conversations than most with Glentoran Chairman, Stephen Henderson, but when you see his number coming up on your phone towards the end of July you sort of know it's not an invitation to a barbecue! The club were keen to extend a player’s contract and when Stephen named the player involved everyone on the GCT Board was eager to listen.
The Glens ran out comfortable winners against Dundela at Wilgar Park this afternoon.
Manager, Alan Kernaghan named a strong starting line up - Nelson, Birney, Magee, Addis, Smyth, Harmon, Lavery, Nelson, Redman, Allen & O'Flynn.
Glentoran were largely in control in the first half but as in the two previous pre-season games, were unable to turn that domination into goals and at the interval we were still scoreless.
