BOXING NIGHT UPDATE
George Wilson Cup Final - TONIGHT
Glentoran Seconds will play Ballinamallard Reserves in the final of the George Wilson Cup on Wednesday 14th May at Seaview.
Seconds manager, Spike Hill spoke to glentoran.com about the game....
Can you inform us how you reached the final?
"We came out of the group stages with a 0-0 draw against Crusaders and good wins against Ards and Warrenpoint Town which matched us with Linfield in the semi final. We ran out 1-0 winners courtest of a John McGuigan penalty. So far in the competition we haven't conceded a goal, let's hope that continues in the final."

Boxing Update
An update on the Boxing event to be held on Thursday 15th May.
As it happens organisation of the event has proved quite a challenging exercise. From an initial interest before Christmas of 14 first team players, the list has shortened considerably as one by one, for a variety of reasons, a number of players have withdrawn from the event. We have also just this week had the withdrawal of Terence Brannigan.
