On a lighter note -

I heard this last night in my local hostelry

Tis well I do remember
That bleak April day (1998)
When Martin, Gerry and cohorts
Signed our constitutional rights away

They signed upon the dotted line
A sight, thought never to be seen
And all because of the guarantee
They'd get their shillings from the Queen

(Traitors all)
What was he doin wastin time in his local hostelry?  Should have been out fighting for dear oul Ireland.

Up the safrons!

I'm surprised they won in fairness, without the Loughgiel lads and NMcM picking the team, strange.....

Oh ffs lets not do that argument again.

Believe KR is making great inroads into changing the mindset and requirement to be an Antrim player. I think he's getting the right response from those prepared to put the shoulder to the wheel. Well done to all involved.

Forgot smilie ffs!! Sorry  ;)
;D You're a stirring shite!

shite stirring shite  ;D

Has SIE no opinion on this devastating .......................ahhhhhhhhh .............. victory?

Anyway, a little Belfast birdie told me last night that the Andersonstown News were able to publish a comprehensive list of all the Antrim Hurling Fixtures for this season!
After a bit of checking - this has been confirmed.
:o :-[

They are all available on the Antrim website - complete with a wonderful new admin moderator  ;)

Can you put up a link? I can't find them.

Duck got a second yellow at the sending off. Soft yellow in the first half.

;D

Your throwin out bait there SIE so I'll have a wee nibble. That first yellow was far from soft. Not as bad as Canning but both could easy have been red as they say 'I've seen them given'

I've been impressed with the technique of a lot of the Carlow senior hurling teams I've seen in recent years, they've pushed hard at minor and U-21 in Leinster as well, so they can hurl and aren't just big mollockers.



johnneycool certainly called it right.  MLR worked hard but it wasn't just about hard work. They hulred well. Shams will be gutted and I felt for them at the end. They could have nicked it but the truth is that MLR deserved the win. Winker's radar was  a bit off too and will be kicking himself. Did McFadden get a straight red? Pretty harsh. I looked at that again and again and there was nothing much in it. When you look at what Joe Canning got away with!

Clooney Gaels 0-7 Rower Inistoge 1-14

Mount Leinster 0-16 Rower Inistoge 2-16

Must be rare that Intermediate champs  beat Senior champs. 

How much would Loughgeil expect to beat Clooney Gaels by?

Shams by a bagful & good luck in the final.

Stop now, you are not allowed to predict scores ;D Loughgiel by 10 pulling up, maybe MLR put out their reserves lol

Sorry!  was more worried about expressing support.  "Some" sham might read it as "I hope you get tanked"!!   ;D

Listen to Cody.   ;D

Cody and Kilkenny looked to have the blueprint too but Jimmy Barry Murphy and Davy Fitz produced other blueprints. Always more than 1 way. But Lougheil are the best by far at the minute with the basics that MR says and then the way they play and nobody else seems to have abetter plan. Look at the team and you can't see a weak position. All the rest you could pick 2 or 3 or more weak places.

St Galls by 24pts
Cloughmills by 15pts
Ballycastle by 13pts
Cushendall by 11pts

maybe some chance that Dunloy might have fared better given the rivalry but I doubt it.

Loughgiel put the rest in their place and did it pretty easy too.  Congratulations to them.

Is there any club that can look at them selves and say next year or the one after we'll compete with them? Again I doubt it.
They've shown that they are a long way ahead of the rest of Antrim. It would take a big improvement or a Loughgeil collapse fo anybody else to win.

What odds 6 in a row?

Its a stitch up! This was an appointment by a few ex members only, I not here to knock the referee, and I just hope he is up to the pace a verocity that will be delivered by two excellent teams to give us a great game.

Explain? surely there is no way a creditable organisation (Antrim County board)give appointments based on any other reason than who  is best for the job based on, assessments, experience, attitude and application, surely you jest. That be like saying I won't get any games based on being on the internet, tweeting or facebook  ;)?

The county have brought in a great way of making referees more accountable with regular assessments (I've had 3) with feedback, the fitness and health check at the start of the season was very good and all referees has a base line to work on for next year. All that stuff would be a waste of time/money if they just give it to people who they like ffs

Referee sorted for Sunday I hear
Mr. T. Reilly.

That explains why the Town "rolled over" on Sunday.  No chance in the final with that character.  ::)

Was I not slated earlier in the season for saying that this would be the case?

Your mention of Mr Reilly is gone from my memeory.  ;D
