Now, for the first time in their history, the Glen crest will be on the Croke Park scoreboard with Kerry’s An Ghaeltacht lying in wait. For Gerard O’Kane senior, a man at the hub of Glenullin’s story for decades having first joined the club committee 52 years ago, these are truly intoxicating times. We’ve won Ulster, we’ve beaten teams from four other counties.”That everyone includes a group that has almost become the face of the side’s journey to Croke Park – the ‘GlenUltras’. The song was released in 1973, the same year Glenullin bought the very pitch the ultras were helping to clear.
