The Glentoran U20 squad continued its good form with a 3 - 1 home league win over Carrick Rangers Reserves tonight. That takes the Wee Glens to joint top of the league with Ballymena United Reserves and Linfield Swifts.
The Glentoran goals came from Joe O'Connor, Jonathan Smith and Karl Hamill.
This League match will see a milestone in the recovery of club captain, Stephen McAlorum, as he is likely to make his first appearance since sustaining a serious knee injury against Cliftonville in December 2015. Supporters are welcome to come along to the Oval to support Mackers as he takes this major step towards a return to first team action.
Other first team players - including Jonathan Smith, Kym Nelson and Alex Leu - are expected to feature.
The game is this Wednesday 2nd November at the Oval and kicks off at 7.45pm.
Gary Haveron talks to Adrian Logan.
For the first time ever in the Irish League, a coloured winter ball will be used at all NI Football League games for the next three months, starting this weekend.
Glentoran's improvement since the appointment of Gary Haveron as manager continued this afternoon as Glentoran defeated Carrick Rangers 2-1 at Taylor's Avenue. This victory is Glentoran's third league win in a row, the first time since March that The Glens have managed such a run. This all despite a depleted looking squad as injuries have started to pile up. Marcus Kane was out of the squad having suffered a recurrence of his groin injury and is expected to miss the next 4-6 weeks.
The Danske Bank Premiership Trophy Tour will once again take place this season with the Gibson Cup heading to various branches around the country, starting with no less than four events during the Hallowe’en holidays. As always the Gibson Cup will be transported from branch to branch in to our branded Skoda Superb from Mervyn Stewart.
Match day 14 in the Danske Bank Premiership sees Glentoran travel to Taylor’s Avenue to face Carrick Rangers.
Earlier in this campaign Carrick Rangers came to the Oval and defeated a lack lustre Glentoran 1-nil. It was Carrick’s first league victory over the Glens since 1993 and that game saw the East Belfast side go on a run which saw resulted in just one victory in the next eight league fixtures. With the change of manager Glentoran’s fortunes are beginning to turn around.
The U20 squad travelled to Solitude tonight for a league game and came away with a deserved 2-1 victory with both Glentoran goals coming from Joe O'Connor.
A frustrating evening for Glentoran culminated in a 2-1 extra time defeat to Irish League champions Crusaders on Tuesday night. The Glens were largely the better side throughout and undoubtedly created more clear cut openings than their opponents, however they coughed and spluttered in front of goal leaving the Oval faithful shocked at how their team lost the tie.
