Glentoran Gazette, Season 2021/22, Vol 75, No 23: Glentoran v Glenavon, 10 May 2022 matchday programme — Europa Conference play-off semi-final; Jay Donnelly, Conor McMenamin, Mick McDermott

Official Glentoran FC matchday programme for the UEFA Europa Conference League play-off semi-final: Glentoran v Glenavon, 10 May 2022, at The Oval, Belfast. The official matchday programme for the UEFA Europa Conference League play-off semi-final against Glenavon at the BetMcLean Oval, kick-off 7.45pm. 'The View from the Top' sets out what is at stake: the quest to secure a place in the qualifying round of the Conference League for a third year in a row, two wins away, after winning the Irish Cup in 2020 and finishing well clear in the league the year after. Eight weeks earlier none of it had been expected — top of the league and in the Irish Cup semi-final, then a subsequent expulsion from the Cup and a dip in form left the play-offs as the route. A European place is described as worth several hundred thousand pounds, raising the profile of the club and attracting players, with non-qualification leaving a hole in the budget. Jay Donnelly and Conor McMenamin, with 28 and 20 goals between them, had scored over half the side's goals. A 'Stats Extra' table gives career appearances and goals for the squad, led by Morris and Kane on 743 appearances. Management: Mick McDermott (manager) with coaches Kieran Harding, Paul Millar and Rodney McAree; Director of Football Roy Coyle; chairman Stephen Henderson. Cover price £3.00. Joint editors John Grayden and Norman Ternahan; cover design Beth Stafford; printed by MCA Design & Print. Glentoran Football Club, The Oval Grounds, Belfast.
