We wish to inform our supporters that as part of the long-term commercial strategy for Glentoran Football Club, the Premier Lounge Bar in the Bet McLean Oval will be under new management for the remaining games of the 2021/22 season.
Glentoran recovered from conceding an early goal in North Belfast to win for the second time in four days this evening and in so doing won back-to-back games at Seaview for the first time since April 2008!
The club is delighted to formally announce that two of our top young players and Academy graduates – Ben Cushnie and Aaron Wightman – have formally signed contract extensions with the club.
We are equally delighted that one of our most exciting young Academy prospects – left wing back Jonathan Russell – has signed his first professional contract with the club.
Friday 21st January 2022
Kick Off 7.45pm
Tomorrow night we follow up our excellent win at Cliftonville with a second trip of the week to North Belfast with the season’s third Danske Bank Premiership meeting with Crusaders and our second at Seaview. The Crues are currently in fourth place in the table, seven points behind ourselves, so Stephen Baxter and his men will be determined to stop the gap from widening further.
The IFA and NIFL are currently treating Spectator behaviour as a high priority. The football authorities are only fining clubs but have made it clear that continued misbehaviour by supporters will ultimately lead to points deductions and playing behind closed doors.
Tickets for our home Danske Bank Premiership game with Coleraine on Tuesday 25th January are now on sale HERE. The match is all ticket for non season ticket holders.
Tickets for Friday evening's Danske Bank Premiership game with Crusaders at Seaview (Kick Off 7.45pm) are currently on sale HERE on the Crusaders club website. The match is all ticket.
They are also available to purchase from Harry D's Bar at Seaview daily 11am-11pm.
