What is going wrong at Glentoran this season?
A Glentoran side that, on paper, promised so much before the season started has so far failed to deliver in the Irish Premiership, so what is going wrong?
Glentoran, a club with ambitions of challenging for the Gibson Cup, has had a disappointing start to the Irish Premiership season. The team has only won two of their opening six league matches and currently trails leaders Coleraine by nine points. Manager Declan Devine and his players are under heavy scrutiny, with first team coach Tim McCann urging the squad to "turn this around very, very quickly" and take accountability for their underwhelming performances.
McCann acknowledged that players must be "a special player to play for this club in front of these fans" and emphasized that the pressure is on for them to improve. Despite owner Ali Pour's investment in the club and the hiring of experienced manager Devine, Glentoran has struggled to make a significant impact in the league or European games.
