10 years ago. My two big bros and I at Ibrox together. Can’t believe it will never happen again.
“And with the Angels I'll be singing
Up in heaven there up above
I'll be singing Follow Follow
To the Rangers that I love”
💙💔
Tonight showed that Micky Conlan isn’t the face of Belfast boxing. Lewis Crocker is the future. Doesn’t come out to divisive songs. Doesn’t split his fan base. Lewis is the future of boxing in Northern Ireland and I hope our wee country gets behind him 🐊
Your battle is over brother. Your duty is done. You were my hero as a child, you were my hero when you joined the army, you were my hero in Iraq and you are still to this day my hero. I will love you forever Dean.

You don’t need to justify anything. Must be so hard and confusing for your dad. Fair play to the lady, we need more people like her in the world and less judgemental arseholes who comment negatively on a feel good story about a man with dementia
Got this flag made for my da as a wee surprise. Dean would have been loving it at the minute. Glens top of the league and his beloved Rangers romping the Germans in Europe 🍀🇬🇧
Glentoran Football Club do not deserve the fans. Best support in the league who travel the length and breadth of Northern Ireland in numbers to follow them only for the team, management and board to constantly let us down
3 years ago I finished my cancer treatment. Head pure melted and leg burnt cleaned off me.
3 years on I’m still getting regular checks but all have been fine and life is normal. These things are beatable.
Now my only worry is that the Teddy Bears do the business tomorrow 🙌🏻
Remembrance Sunday was always emotional watching the cenotaph display but it’s hit so much harder this year when I have my brother to remember. First year without him. Never to be forgotten
☘️🇬🇧🌺
Jordan Stewart to the Glens is well and truly done now 😂
Just won the league and cup double and they are singing about how shite a team they couldn’t beat are

Guy liked to bully kids and pretend it was good coaching when in reality he had the funds to sign basically any player he wanted and build a dream team. In no position to judge young quarterbacks
Fair play to
@Briansmyth99
going out of his way to drop into our charity event yesterday to pay his respects. Those wee touches will definitely help and show come Friday night
Of my brothers battalion that he served with in Iraq, 9 soldiers have now committed suicide. Post traumatic stress disorder. The 9th passed away today. Tony Blair and George Bush have a lot to answer for sending those young lads out to a pointless war.
Rest in Peace Brett

Been organising this charity day for months and todays the big day. Hopefully raise a load of money for a great local charity that helps veterans coming home with PTSD. All in the name of my big bro 💙💔
Faugh a Ballagh
Sitting in the bathroom and out the window I hear my 3 year old wee girl playing with her football in the garden. Every time she kicks the ball she shouts “Come on you Glens”
Taught her well 👸🏼💚
Majority of GSCs making statements tonight is huge. Hopefully those who made these statements can amalgamate and arrange some sort of protest or boycott for fans to get behind. The time has come to drain the swamp
I’ve written a blog about some recent issues I’ve been having with anxiety. I decided I wasn’t going to be embarrassed by struggling with it and thought that writing it down would help. I feel like it has
@Queenmachine88
They aren’t getting bombed for attacking Israel. They are getting bombed because they attack civilian merchant ships. They then attacked the naval ships sent to defend the merchant ships. If you attack a navy then you have to expect a response
Some of the NI squad could leave their clubs and go on Love Island, miss pre season and still get called up to play for their country before deserving Irish League players
Mad that Linfield are sponsored by a security firm and yet can’t make full use of their own stadium because they don’t trust they can sort security. This years match could have had a proper professional atmosphere and it’s being wrecked by the Blues board
@Glentoran
Whoever drafted this needs to have a long, hard look at themselves. Club is toxic and we should start with the thing that’s causing the upset and trouble. Nip the main issue in the bud and everything will be sorted instead of grassing up our own
Everything about Linfield is cringey as fuck. The sash bash as if our fans don’t know the songs they are singing, their shite attempt at TIFO, their announcer and their shite recorded songs at the end.
Atleast they came out to play football against their rivals today but
Disgusted at my club Glentoran for not releasing a statement with their commitment to UEFA competitions. They have put themselves in the same book as other European Cup winning clubs Barcelona, Real Madrid and Juventus. Letting football down
Belfast Continental Market is brutal when you look at what Edinburgh, London etc have. Need to move it away from city hall and make it more of a spectacle
Anyone in the Ron Manley lounge the other night will have found out how big a legend

@ciaranoconnor10
’s da and uncle are. Two of them steaming singing Glens songs and getting to know every single person in the bar. Great craic
One of the failures of Mick and Ali’s ownership has to be the Donnelly brothers. Neither wanted to be Glentoran players. If they did they never showed it.
Going forward build around youth. Russell, Wightman, Murphy, Webber.
McCarey never won his place back.
Fuck football
Won’t believe Hrvoje Plum is back until I see a video of him bashing a 40 yard free kick into the net on a cold night at Ashfield’s Elite Performance Centre

Only people with the funds to pay for this article deserve the help it seems. For articles like this please show some corporate responsibility and open it up for free. It’s mental health week and this could make the difference
I don’t think Glenman have been as buzzing going into a Linfield game as we are at the minute. Usual nerves of course but this team are full of self belief and playing unbelievable football
If the Irish League is cancelled it would be great if we could get

to play a match at the National Stadium. Bill it like a Cup Final and get a trophy made with proceeds going to the NHS. Fans get behind it like an Irish Cup final after months away
@kobygreenwood24
Heard the Blades and Wednesday firms are coming up with Chelsea, Millwall, West Ham, Leeds, Boca Juniors, River Plate, Hamburg and Lazio to wreck Dundee
All of these qualifications and opportunities for kids yet people are slating the school for going against an amateur club. It’s a shit one for Bloomfield and that’s bad but a school’s priority must always be it’s students. Fair play to Ashfield, fair play to Glentoran.
Took a group of 5 year olds to their first Glens match yesterday from our wee football team. Running around having fun enjoying the experience. Head of Security comes over and threatens to throw them all out🤣 his temper was mad too. Kids had great day despite the headcase
If I could go back to the Westbourne on the night we won the Irish cup during covid I’d pay anything. Can’t remember who scored the winner, doubt they matter anymore, but the scenes when it went in were immense. Then the Newtownards Road after 😍🤯
Gates of the club near closed, went through many trophyless years, no money for new players or our existing players contracts. Fans at each other’s throats over certain new signings.
Yet our new training top has finally topped it all.
Imagine Desanos on the Newtownards Road opened normal hours? Would be worth a fortune. Best ice cream in the world without a doubt but also hardest to get
One of my bros favourite days of the year today. Getting up and parading in the Regimental band. Marching off to get his Shamrocks and then hitting the town to get pissed like only a Royal Irish Ranger can. He’ll be up there celebrating hard. Love you bro.
Faugh a Ballagh 🍀🇬🇧
Is there worse patter in the world than that Glentoran Family page and the incessant shite about paying at the gate and is it on iPlayer? Everytime someone posts they think they are Kevin Bridges, probably sitting laughing away at their originality 😴
Surely the Glens should be looking at reducing the Linfield capacity at the Oval to allow more Glentoran fans in. Give them the railway stand but give us the terracing. Rangers have had to do it to Celtic. It’s only fair home support doesn’t suffer
The Bet McLean cup is getting some amount of promotion from
@OfficialNIFL
good to see the local game getting a good build up. Missing a trick though by not billing it as the
@the_peakys
cup final. His beloved Coleraine vs the team he fangirled over in the Summer
Linfield bring their worst kit ever out sponsored by a company that beat the shite out of their Ultras. It was all going so well and then the Glens decide to outdo their old rivals. What a club lol
Nearly weekly now we are hearing of suicides. Used to be I didn’t know anyone who had done it and now it’s a neverending story. What is the solution? Where is the help?
Election Day. 2 parties have used and abused this country for over 2 decades now. Both parties collapsing assemblies at any opportunity.
Longest hospital waiting lists in the U.K. by a long way. Yet this seems secondary to green/orange politics.
Now’s the time for change.
Over 150 people at Poleglass tonight standing up for a free Palestine and condemning Israel's occupation and apartheid. Working class communities across the world are standing with Palestine.
Fell asleep in the Duns with people taking photos with me because I was such a state. Hopefully Covid stops anymore away days or I may end up divorced. Bad books Sundays are back! Awh well, Old Firm today. In to them Rangers
Fair play Mick. Nothing he said was wrong. Conor’s been targeted all season. We all want players making it overseas then our teams send players out to break the legs of our best players
I won’t ever vote for the DUP but if they merged under a new alias with the UUP, PUP and TUV and worked to help their communities and focused less on Old Testament politics then they could finally unite our community. Only then will I vote for a DUP candidate.
Can’t get over those dickheads singing that song about Michaela McAreavey. Don’t see the point in it and don’t see the point in the Dickhead recording it thinking it was funny. So disappointing after a wonder day last Saturday
Johnny Russell is my player of the year. He has just come back after getting his first cap. What do we do? Put him on the bench and don’t bring him on. McGee back from the same squad starts and has no issues because McGinn is ancient and can’t be arsed. Crying out for Johnny
On one of the posts on Facebook about the schools closing some header is on commenting, “What about the after school clubs?”
Christ the night, where do we get some of these headers 🤯

When we were in school near 20 years ago we visited a synagogue and had to wear hats. It’s just respect when learning about other’s religions. It’s hardly a case of shoving it down people’s throats
