We're delighted to announce that U20s midfieder Sean Og Gallagher has been called uP to the Northern Ireland Under 18 Schoolboy squad for the forthcoming Centenary Shield matches against England (away) and Republic of Ireland (home). This is a very deserved honour for Sean who has had a great season in our Under 20 team and recently made his first team debut in our home win over Warrenpoint Town.
Glentoran FC is delighted to announce the appointment of Mick McDermott as Head Coach. Mick will have responsibility for all playing matters at all levels throughout the club.
History repeats itself far too often for this Glentoran team. In this case we conceded the third consecutive 90th minute winner to Cliftonville this season, having yet again failed to hold out for a deserved point We dominated the first half to have a deserved half time lead and rode out substantial Reds pressure for well over an hour but yet again indecision at the back allowed our opponents to steal a late winner and yet again send us home empty handed.
Saturday 30 March 2019, Kick Off 3pm
On Saturday we have our final match before the Premiership split when we make our second visit of the season to Solitude.
The PSNI have issued the following information for Glentoran fans travelling to Solitude on Saturday 30th March.
Glentoran Fans travelling by private car to Cliftonville Football Club for the Danske Premiership match with 3pm kick-off on Saturday 30th March 2019 are requested to park in the residential areas above Solitude off the Cliftonville Road, ie Cardigan Drive and Knutsford Drive etc. Motorists should consider local resident and emergency vehicle access when deciding where and how to park.
An under strength Glentoran U20s team without six regulars recently promoted to the first team squad - Paul O'Neill, James McCarthy, Mal Smith, Paul McLaughlin, Jamie Glover and Sean Gallagher (three of whom played in the weekend's win over the same opposition) - paid the price for a nightmare opening ten minutes this evening but remain third in the table.

Glentoran sealed a minimum of a third place finish in the league this season with a hard fought 2-1 win over third placed Cliftonville at the Oval. The Wee Glens goals came from Ben Cushnie with his twelfth goal of the season and skipper Malachy Smith. Mal's goal was remarkably his sixteenth goal fron right back this term.
