Process for the first 200 Club Draw

So, the first ball out of the box will be 6th place, then 5th, and so on until we select the last ball and this will be our winner of September's draw.
We welcome the players, officials and fans of Dungannon Swifts to East Belfast on Saturday for their first trip to the Oval this season.
The Premier Lounge will open at 12:30pm and we have a great start with live coverage of the Merseyside derby as Liverpool face Everton. We will then have exclusive live coverage as Glentoran face the Swifts from 3pm and we finish the day with another derby, this time the North London derby as Arsenal face Tottenham.
Victories are proving hard to come by in the Danske Bank Premiership for Glentoran this season but performances haven't quite been as poor. The team have played well and with a little more luck in front of goal and composure in the latter stages of games Glentoran could be sitting far better in the current table. As it lies, Glentoran are in 8th position on just 11 points from 9 games having drawn four of our last six games. Despite that we are only 6 points off the top, 3 behind champions Cliftonville and 2 behind biggest rivals Linfield.
Glentoran Community Trust are delighted to announce that tickets are now on sale for the “Vienna Cup Celebratory Dinner”, to be held at Belfast City Hall on Saturday 1st November 2014.
It was another difficult game for Glentoran this season but a victory nonetheless defeating Larne 2-1 at The Oval in the Co Antrim Shield. Goals from Kym Nelson and Jordan Stewart saw Glentoran through to the Second Round.
Glentoran take a break from the Danske Bank Premiership and face Larne tonight at The Oval in the County Antrim Sheild First Round. Glentoran have a rich history in the competition having won it on twenty five occasions with our best run being over the turn of the Millennium where Glentoran lifted the infamously huge trophy five straight seasons. The Glens last won the competition in 2010-11 where Matty Burrows was the hero with Grant Gardiner securing the victory late in stoppage time.
