A hattrick from Jay Donnelly and a brace for Danny Purkis gave the Glens a comfortable win at the Bet McLean Oval this afternoon. The result returned the Glens to 4th place in the Danske Bank Premiership but things aren't looking too good for Portadown who sit 6 points adrift at the bottom of the table with just 5 games remaining.
Prior to kick off an impeccable minute's silence was observed as we remembered Brian Waters and Bailie Hardy who both sadly passed away this week.
In what has already been a very sad week for the Glentoran Family, everyone at Glentoran Football Club is deeply saddened to learn of the sudden passing of one of the most familiar and best loved people at the club. Brian Waters.
While best known as Ruth McCreery’s sidekick in the Glentoran Superstore over many years, Brian in 1996 was a founder member of the Internet Glentoran Supporters Club, the club behind both the launch of the Superstore as we know it, and of the official club website.
Our forthcoming Danske Bank Premiership match with Linfield has been moved back 24 hours at the request of the police to accommodate a State Visit to Northern Ireland.
The game will now take place on Wednesday 12th April at the National Stadium at Windsor Park. Kick off 7.45pm.
Rodney McAree warns Saturday’s Glentoran Gazette readers that Portadown, a side fighting for its Premiership survival, deserves our respect and he will be treating their visit seriously, while the mid-Ulster team’s manager, Niall Currie, says he is coming to the Oval in confident mood after some encouraging results. Our writers have praise for NIFL chief, Gerard Lawlor, and wonder why the International Board are not tackling the penalty box argy-bargy while the Gazette publishers, the 1923 Committee, query the gaps in the BBC’s Irish League show’s schedule.
Saturday 1st April
Kick Off 3.00pm
On Saturday we meet Portadown in our final game before the Danske Bank Premiership split.
While this game will be a fourth meeting of the sides in all competitions this campaign, it will be the first of them to take place at the Oval.
Our players out on loan have continued to impress at their respective clubs.
