Strong team with good quality on the bench.

Healy captain again. A good SW man.

Not bad first half, some good passages of play.

Good win.

Only McKenna cup but not that often we win games like this so hope it's a good sign for the league.

Happy days well done Aontroim!

Good win, Down understrength but lots to be positive. Murray outstanding, Mick classy!

Are we in division 3 this year in the league?

Good win in alien Newry....Jamie Gribbin looks the part...struggled last year but fighting fit again after surgery..
Mick is, and always will be a class act...
Bench strong and life in div 3 may well prove within our capabilities....

geezer

Decent win. Controlled the games for the most part. Poor final ball at times but all in all a positive performance.

Milltown Row2

Decent spread of clubs on that team
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

Yes that's the aim, pick up 6 or 8 points in Division 3 and get a foothold. One swallow and all that, but winning in Newry is a good start and it should be a confidence booster for the lads.

Good to win a match at Pairc Esler, albeit against a Down team very much in transitional mode. Some great individual performances, Ricky superb at the back, Michael controlling the game, and special mention to Jamie Gribben who had a good hour, and got back to make a very important intervention late in the game when Down were closing in on goal. Satisfying start to the year, a good performance on Saturday will set us up nicely for the league.

I thought McGinley got the balance right, 4 debutants (who all did well) placed in alongside experienced players. Plenty of changes made throughout. Paddy McBride classy throughout along with Mick McCann (Down style of play really suited his role). A good starting point nothing more, wins in this competition for Antrim few and far between so has to be welcomed.
