Antrim Football Thread

It's not the Gaa's fault we're not closing our schools up here Dublin or otherwise. What should they do? Leave everything on because the uk government won't shut schools?

Comment makes as much sense as blaming the Antrim chairman for it.

No one wants a United Ireland more than me But reality is we r one sporting organization in the 6 counties banning activity when everyone else is playing away ... pissing in the wind comes to
Mind

So just carry on in the six counties and never mind the rest? The schools will shut soon enough and the Gaa have done the right thing here. Pissing in the wind or not it's a responsible decision. Every little will hopefully help.

Crazy time all Right - the advice in the free state is gatherings of up to 100 ok iNdoors and 500 outdoors - GAA on solo run here imo

Assuming it involves Antrim clubs PJ.

Biased... but I was on the line in 2009 when PGI beat Creggan by a point. Paul and Brian Mc Iver were preparing Creggan and we nipped them with a majestic Tony Convery point in the last minute of a cliffhanger.

Allowed a couple of answers? The match at the Dub as mentioned above will be hard to top...it had the lot!

But the greatest...St Galls beating Nemo in Portlaoise in the All Ireland Semi. Cork had 9 Cork senior panellists and St Galls held them scoreless from play for 40 minutes.  We wont see a performance like that again from an Antrim club team in my lifetime.

Yeah the match at Portlaois was something else! The cheeky feckers dandered into hotel for brunch! They got a lovely welcome    that was Rafferty at his best. No hotel for our lads they stayed at priest lodgings had mass that morning! Made a good few bob that day in the bookies, they had us at 6/1 or something more

The semi final a couple of years ago when Tomas scored that goal past about 44 blue jerseys is hard to beat

Was a classic, though I was eating dinner at Zen that night. They are a great team

our first hurling championship win in 1990. i was only 13 at the time so didn't really full appreciate what it meant to the older people around me and how much the club desperately wanted to win it.

i was lucky enough to have been to every game that year right up to the All Ireland semi final against Glenmore in Nolan Park and witnessed that first piece of history and therein the next lot of years and the success it brought.

That breakthrough team reminds me so much of our team of the 2000, great mix of kids coming through with that older heads for experience! Great times and an exciting team to watch, not so much when playing against them!
