Welcome to Glentoran, Thomas Byrne

Mon, 29/07/2019 - 20:31

The club has completed the signing of former Drogheda United and St Patrick’s Athletic left winger and Republic of Ireland U19 player, Thomas Byrne.

Thomas (20) was a youth player with Brighton but has spent the past 2 years in the League of Ireland, where he was considered to be a very hot prospect with the potential to return to cross channel football. He played pre-season for Glenavon but picked the Glens after appearing in our recent friendly wins over Ballyclare Comrades, Knockbreda and PSNI.

Prior to his time at the Brandywell, he captained Waterford to promotion from the League of Ireland First Division in 2017 and had a year in the Premier League with Sligo Rovers before returning to Derry City, where he had been a youth team player. He had been approached to sign for Cliftonville but elected to join the Glens after meeting Mick McDermott and Paul Millar.

Ricky Rea has been appointed to the position of full time Club Secretary at Glentoran FC. Ricky – a lifelong Glentoran supporter and a founder of the North Down GSC - has fulfilled the role on a part-time volunteer basis for the past six years but as the club moves in the direction of full-time football, the Board of Directors decided that a full time Secretary was a vital component of a professional club.

Beattie double wins another cup for Glens Women

Sat, 27/07/2019 - 22:05

Two second half goals from Kerry Beattie secured a 2-1 win over Crusaders in tonight's Toals' County Antrim Cup Final at Seaview. The Glens played for the last 30 minutes with only 10 players after skipper Jess Foy was adjudged to have handled in the area to concede a penalty that allowed Crusaders to equalise Beattie's opener.

Remarkably tonight's victory means that the Glens are currently holders of all three domestic knockout cups after previous final wins over Sion Swifts and Linfield.

Glentoran History Restored

Sun, 21/07/2019 - 18:05

One of the primary objectives of the Glentoran Community Trust, since its inception has been the preservation and exploration of the incredible heritage and history of Glentoran Football Club. We have embarked on numerous succesful projects, examining the story of the Blitz and its impact on the club, the heroes of the Vienna Cup, European exploits and the birth of Victor Coates's dream. We have created bus tours, festivals, hosted functions and published books and dvds in a bid to both remember our past and inform generations of Glentoran supporters yet to come.
