Officials at Moyola Park FC have advised us of the following for Glentoran supporters travelling to Castledawson on Saturday:
Whilst there is parking at the ground, additional parking is available at 'Superseal Window' in Bridge Street (see below).
Glentoran, backed by a large travelling support, travelled to the Ballymena Showgrounds on a bitterly cold January afternoon looking to get their title challenge back on track following a string of disappointing performances and results. Unfortunately, the wait for a win goes on.
Monday 2nd January 2023
Kick Off 3.00pm
Tomorrow we begin the new year with our first trip of the season to Ballymena Showgrounds to face David Jeffrey’s eighth placed United.
We are delighted that Gail Redmond, current Glentoran Volunteer Coach, former captain and all-round legend of the Women’s game in Northern Ireland has been honoured by His Majesty the King with an MBE in the New Year’s Honours List. Gail has received her honour in recognition of her services to women's football.
Glentoran supporters are advised that tickets for our away Danske Bank Premiership game at Ballymena Showgrounds on Monday January 2nd (3.00pm) are now available to purchase online at https://www.ballymenaunitedfc.com/tickets/index_away.php . This is the only means of purchase for Glentoran supporters.
Also please note that our Samuel Gelston's Whiskey Irish Cup Fifth Round tie, away to Moyola Park AFC on Saturday 7th January (3.00pm) will be pay at the gate. Prices £10 and £8 concession.
Boxing Day ended in more disappointment and frustration for the sell-out Glentoran support today as a last minute winner from Eetu Vertainen gave Linfield all three points at the Bet McLean Oval to continue the Glens’ recent dismal run of results.
Monday 26th December 2022
Kick Off 2.00pm
Tomorrow afternoon we meet Linfield for the third time in six weeks and the fourth time this season, hoping for our second Danske Bank Premiership win after two very disappointing intervening defeats in cup semi finals
In the Boxing Day Glentoran Gazette Mick McDermott says conceding a late goal at Cliftonville was frustrating, especially in the manner it was conceded, but admits we need to be more ruthless in front of goal. And he adds that the team needs to use the League Cup defeat by Linfield as motivation for the derby game. Ahead of the Big Two Christmas clash Jamie Megarry and Matthew Brown agree that it is a game which can make or break the holiday for fans.
Glentoran Football Club would like to take this opportunity to wish everyone a happy holiday weekend and a very Merry Christmas.!
Boxing Day will see our traditional Match against Linfield as an opportunity to showcase all that is good about Irish League football, and in particular the wider Glentoran Community.
We hope that those spectators, lucky enough to get a ticket for the game, will enjoy a competitive match, one played in the tradition of sporting rivalry and sportsmanship.
The 12th man will have a massive role to play on the day.
