    Glens Beat Again

    Glentoran lost 3-2 against Ballymena tonight to record their second defeat in four days. Only two ahead of Linfield now and we have a game in hand.

    Long way to go yet but we have played all the hard ties at Coleraine Ballymena Portadown Seaview and solitude coming up so we have the easier run in but its a long way to go and we need to improve alot!

    I'm glad that the wheels are starting to come off the Glens, I was getting concerned about facing them in the Setanta Cup.

    Just as well you only "do (y)our talking on the pitch" (or whatever deranged ballbaggery your manager is vomiting up this week).

    A draw away to a team that have not lost at home this season and are challenging for the league is hardly a disastrous result, certainly not as bading as losing to a mid table team.

    However, it's not the result most of your support was predicting.

    However, nice to know you think of us anyway, even when you're on a different football forum.

    I think you will find most of our support was expecting a very difficult match and most have been full of praise for Cliftonville this season. I have said on a number of occasions that they are the best team we have played this season going on performances against us.

    Our result doesn't look too bad now, does it?

    And still Glenmen have trouble understanding basic English. You just can't seem to comprehend what domestic clean sweep means.

    What I don't "comprehend", [can't swear here, can I?], is how a north-south cup is won in '62 and trumped as part of a 'clean sweep' and when the same cup is lost in '06, the same claim is made.

    Or do all you girls use the prefix "domestic" now, except those that get tattoos?

    So if the Glens had beaten Coleraine a few years ago in the Irish Cup Final would that not have been a clean sweep?
