Antrim Hurling

County final scheduled for Corrigan.A total joke.

Ballycastle and Loughgiel are almost on the doorstep of both participants yet some p***k on the county board has decided to schedule the final some 45 - 50 miles away from both villages.

Price of diesel obviously not considered when making this stupid decision.

Surely can't be!

St Johns would'nt need a split on the gate, social club/bar should be bringing in a clondyke considering the games hosted both club & county over the last few seasons!! Well CD played an absolute blinder!

In fairness the weather got the better of the pitch at Ballycastle on Sunday, ball was plugged a few times and the normal decent pitch was a bit heavy.. two games and plenty of rain probably the main reason.

We've a covered stand with seating and a decent terrace area, it's catered finals and county games, I don't think Dunloy or Cushendall will be complaining where the game is at .. Ballycastle has hosted a few finals too

It's the best option in my book, only down side might be the roadworks on the M2 city bound !

Are St. John's the linfield of Antrim Gaa now

Talking to Skinny last night and he said Dunloy and Cushendall had both asked for the game to be played at Corrrigan.

[imtommygunn]

Corrigan is fine tbh. One game a year and a much better setup with the stand, parking wise etc.

[Jonkunlon]

Better playing surface than Loughgiel and Ballycastle. Parking facilities are insufficient.  Dunsilly needed/needs a stand, toilet facilities and a proper shop.

Agree with this - dunsilly has a lot going for it in terms of location, playing surface etc.  It just lacks an atmosphere and some of the ancillary facilities.  I am sure these will come with time.  If only some the 10s of millions being ploughed into casement could be redirected to here.  I am all for the redevelopment of casement but the money that has already been wasted on it is immoral in my view.  A much more modest stadium would suffice and might have made the planning process a bit easier.

I see the Antrim County Board have not made the JHC and IHC Finals a double header next Saturday.

The JHC Final is scheduled to be played at 1 o'clock, while the IHC Final is to be played at 4 o'clock in Dunsilly. It appears that after the JHC the venue will be cleared and punters required to re-enter the venue using a different ticket in order to watch the IHC final.

What the f**k are these clowns playing at. It appears the county board have gone down the money grabbing route.

Surely a double header makes sense. 2 matches I was looking forward to attending but unfortunately I won't be able to do so now.

Been happening regularly in the football
Don't know what they're at TBH £££££££££££

[Kidder81]

It's hard to know what they are at as I would say you would be lucky to get 10 people that pay in to both games, surely they know that ? Not so much the monetary factor but the inconvenience of spending half your day at Dunsilly

[Jonkunlon]

There are two portable toilet cubicles available to the entire crowd. I would suggest this is step one on the list of reasons as to why they don't play double headers at Dunsilly.

Paying fans have been losing out all season.

Look at the double headers Owenbeg is hosting this weekend.
