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 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.
