Glentoran 0-2 Cliftonville

Tue, 01/03/2016 - 23:24

Glentoran faced Cliftonville tonight following two poor results from both sides at the weekend. Glentoran were controversially defeated 1-0 by Ballinamallard whilst Cliftonville were surprisingly blown away by Coleraine at Solitude. Glentoran were without Aaron Hogg and Stephen Gordon who were both unfortunate to be sent off in Saturday's defeat. Debutant Stephen Rice replaced Gordon in midfield whilst Aaron Hogg was replaced by Elliott Morris in goals despite still struggling with injury. Development squad goalkeeper Adam McCormick was on the bench.

Glentoran host Cliftonville in tonight’s Danske Bank Premiership tie following defeats for both sides on Saturday.

The Glens were unable to make it three league wins in a row for the first time this season with one goal at Ferney Park being enough to seal three points for Whitey Anderson’s Ballinamallard United.

Glentoran could secure three successive Danske Bank Premiership wins for the first time this season against Ballinamallard United tomorrow.

After losing in four straight Premiership games and suffering an Irish Cup exit, Alan Kernaghan’s men have revived their season with back-to-back league wins last week.

Victories over Glenavon and Ballymena United have helped the East Belfast side turn their fortunes around, stretching an advantage over Portadown to nine points in the race to secure a top six finish before the league splits.

This is my Oval

This is from the series in the Glentoran Gazette ‘This is my Oval’ and it focuses on volunteers and loyal supporters who give that little bit extra to the club. It’s about getting the recognition the volunteers deserve and hopefully it’ll inspire others to give up their time too.  This is a look back on last seasons articles

Glentoran 0-1 Derry City

Tue, 23/02/2016 - 23:12

A goal in the 43rd minute from Barry McNamee decided tonight's friendly fixture at the Oval.

Glentoran manager, Alan Kernaghan, rang the changes for the game with 3 trialists in the starting line up; Stephen Rice, Ola Olajubu and Neil Donaghy. He also gave starts to a number of players who have not featured in recent matches.

Glentoran 2-0 Ballymena United

Sun, 21/02/2016 - 00:03

Glentoran capitalised on Monday’s win at Mourneview Park with another good three points as they defeated Ballymena United by two goals to nil at the Oval this afternoon. Goals from Johnny Smith and Ciaran Caldwell saw the Glens safely to consecutive victories for the first time in 2016. Alan Kernaghan unsurprisingly named an unchanged 11 for the home side who were looking to avoid defeat against a Ballymena side who traditionally have a good record at the Oval, winning 5 and losing just two of their last 8 league visits to East Belfast.
