For the second time in just four days Glentoran clocked up a victory over a team above them in the Danske Bank Premiership. Having put third-placed Crusaders to the sword on Saturday with a 3-0 win, this time the east Belfast outfit headed to Windsor Park to play bitter rivals Linfield, who occupied second spot in the table.

Just two rounds of games remain in the 2013-14 Danske Bank Premiership with the destiny of the title still not confirmed. Whilst leaders Cliftonville travel to Portadown, second placed Linfield host Glentoran in the final 'Big Two' meeting of the campaign.
Officials from Raven GSC made a presentation to Jason Hill on Saturday prior to our Danske Bank Premiership fixture with Crusaders.
Members of Hillfoot GSC presented a cheque to the club ahead of yesterday's game. Officials of Hillfoot GSC handed over a cheque for £1000 to Glentoran vice-chairman, Stephen Henderson in the boardroom prior to our 3-nil victory over Crusaders.
The Board pass on their thanks to all the members for this very generous donation.
Elliott Morris was voted Glentoran 'Player of the Year' for 2013-14 by the fans. Castlereagh GSC organised the vote at today's game and the Glentoran club captain came out on top.
Stephen McAlorum was runner-up with Marcus Kane third. The top 5 was completed by Johnny Addis and Jay Magee.
Glentoran's final home game of the 2013-14 season ended with a 3-nil win over Crusaders. The Glens had taken just one point from the three previous Danske Bank Premiership fixtures against the Crues and with the squad missing a number of key players most feared the Shore Road outfit would come out on top again, especially as they are still chasing a Europa League spot.
It was a makeshift back four with Niall Henderson playing at right-back, the dependable Jason Hill at left-back and Willie Garrett & Steven Gordon playing in the centre of defence.
It's the final home fixture of the season as Glentoran welcome Crusaders to the Oval. It's the 4th meeting of the two sides in the Danske Bank Premiership with Glentoran still looking to register a win against the North Belfast outfit.
Crusaders had a very comfortable 3-nil victory when they visited the Oval in early September but the Glens responded well with a scoreless draw at Seaview in horrendous conditions just before Christmas. The Crues came out on top 2-1 in the final game before the split; Glentoran perhaps deserving a share of the spoils on the night.
The voting for the NEW 2014/15 Away Kit designs will commence at 12:30 pm on Saturday 19th April 2014 in the McLean Suite at the Oval. Supporters will also be able to vote online from 9am Monday 21st April. (Details will be available nearer the time).
We have four shirt designs for supporters to view - there may be slight variance to the final design of the shirt chosen.
