@Glentoran How is Eliot on the bench

[Matthew Stevenson @MattyS_GFC]

My favourite @Glentoran fixture of the season tonight- @OfficialBlues away.
It’s normally not a happy trip home from this ground- not the case tonight!
I did not see a 3-1 win coming! A rare win at Linfield will be a highlight of my 20th season, hopefully not the only one.

[Matthew Stevenson @MattyS_GFC]

Another disappointing day for @Glentoran, this time a 0-0 draw with @Glenavon_FC. Very few goal scoring chances for either side.
Hard to see where the goals are coming from right now, they’ll need to find goals quickly otherwise it’ll be another mid-table season.

[Matthew Stevenson @MattyS_GFC]

With @Glentoran playing on Friday night, I got my Saturday football @dundelaofficial. The visitors were @AnnaghUnitedFC.
A decent game and a 2-0 win for the Duns due to a deflected free kick and a header from a brilliant cross in the first half. The second half was a non-event.

[Matthew Stevenson @MattyS_GFC]

Friday night football and a trip to the champions Larne.
@larnefc got a penalty with the last kick of the half. Once it went 2-0 on 50 minutes, it was game over. The last 40 minutes was a non-event.
At least with @Glentoran playing on Friday night, I can enjoy a free Saturday.

[Matthew Stevenson @MattyS_GFC]

It was back to winning ways for @Glentoran tonight with a solid 2-0 win over @LoughgallFC.
Not the most convincing display but the win is all that matters.
Other results going the Glens’ way and @LFC winning in the Champions League made the night even better.

[Matthew Stevenson @MattyS_GFC]

Another Saturday, another away day, this time @BallymenaUnited.
The only thing different from last week was the weather, with another 1-0 defeat for @Glentoran. No lack of effort but just couldn’t finish then got hit with a sucker punch, hopefully get back on track quickly.

[Matthew Stevenson @MattyS_GFC]

Fantastic day for a game of football, sunny blue skies with hardly a cloud and very warm.
Sadly that’s as good as it got, not a happy trip home after a 1-0 loss @DgnSwifts. @Glentoran tried and tried but just couldn’t finish, hope they get back on track quickly. #NIFLPremiership

[Matthew Stevenson @MattyS_GFC]

Defeat in game 1, a win in game 2 and now a draw in game 3. Neither team looked like winning it so a 0-0 draw between @Glentoran and @ColeraineFC was a fair result.
I get a break now, missing the next few games. Hope the team will have found some form by the time I’m back.

[Matthew Stevenson @MattyS_GFC]

Good to be back @Portadownfc today, one of my favourite away grounds.
Nothing beats a stoppage time winner, it may have been deflected but they all count.
Happy trip home as @Glentoran get their @OfficialNIFL season up and running with their first points.

[Matthew Stevenson @MattyS_GFC]

It was a shame to see the World Champion @Barry_Nasty have to surrender the title due to injury less than 24 hours after winning it in Dublin but it meant that we got a three way match for the vacant title and Belfast’s own @DamoMackle won it to the delight of the crowd. 2/2

[Matthew Stevenson @MattyS_GFC]

Brilliant @OTT_wrestling show this afternoon @europahotel.
A special shoutout to @deThatched and @SpeedballBailey who had a brilliant match, easily the best I’ve seen at the Europa. 1/2

[Matthew Stevenson @MattyS_GFC]

Brilliant afternoon for a game of football and my second game of the weekend as @dundelaofficial faced @NewryCityAFC.
A decent game which ended in a 1-0 win for the Duns thanks to a great strike in the first half. A brilliant save in the second half made sure it didn’t go to 1-1.

[Matthew Stevenson @MattyS_GFC]

Great to be back at the Oval for the first time since April for the start of the new season. Sadly it ended in disappointment with a 1-0 defeat to Crusaders.
Different season but the same old so far but it’s only been one game, just need to go again and put it right next week.

[Matthew Stevenson @MattyS_GFC]

Really looking forward to tonight- the beginning of the new @OfficialNIFL season and my 20th season supporting @Glentoran.
After a lot of comings and goings and a good pre season, game 1 is tonight against @CrusadersFC , it’ll be a tough match but I’m optimistic of a win to start

[Matthew Stevenson @MattyS_GFC]

Last #PreSeason friendly for @Glentoran today, away @distilleryworld. A very good 6-0 win for the team, I’m looking forward to the start of the @OfficialNIFL next Friday night against @CrusadersFC. Hopefully by around 10pm that night, I’m not wishing it was still the off season!

[Matthew Stevenson @MattyS_GFC]

Another pre season friendly this afternoon for @Glentoran, this time away to @BallyclareFC.
A very good display in a 6-0 win for the Glens. The team is looking very sharp, hopefully they can carry that into the season. It all begins in 13 days, I can’t wait! #PreSeason

[Matthew Stevenson @MattyS_GFC]

Free Tuesday night, so another pre season friendly for me, at @dundelaofficial.
The visitors were @MossleyFC, a last minute replacement for the PSNI so credit to them for stepping in on less than 12 hours notice.
An entertaining game and a 4-3 win for Mossley.

[Matthew Stevenson @MattyS_GFC]

A very good 3-0 win for the Glens, the team are looking sharp, hopefully that’ll still be the case when the season starts in three weeks.

[Matthew Stevenson @MattyS_GFC]

Nice evening for a game of football, this time at Dundela. I was at this ground a fair bit last season when I had a free Saturday afternoon or Tuesday night (and that’ll continue this season) though I was very much not a neutral this time around as the visitors were @Glentoran.
