Bet the first question will be about the "terrible one" 


Good to see that referees can see that there are positive contributions/suggestions being made here most of the time. Like everywhere, you'll get the odd mouth on here but 80% of posters are sound enough to have an adult discussion with.

Skull, as i said some of us Refs do look at the site, to be truthful to see the feedback on games. We would,nt be human if we did,nt. Its hard to take some of the Pi** heads and personal attacks at times. Some us work very hard at our game and the rule applications, and try to improve, although when you face the abuse this can be impossible at times. We are sharing this so hopefully it will give a broad spectrum of feedback. Its time that we had some sort of genuine voice, we won,t be drawn into a piss take or will not engage in the old TYRE KICKING mentality. See how it goes, and hopefully it will be helpful to us all.

Ah feck no!  The 'Terrible One' has got an account on GAA Board.  Now wait to you listen to this load of balls.  By the way, watch your kit bag, socks, boots, shorts, pencils, whistles, RED and Yellows.   Who let that bollocks on?

What exactly have against TR? Why do you persistently attack referees, some of your postings are fairly accurate on the county, however you seem to want to have a pop at all costs? I don,t believe your a St Johns man, however thats irrelevant.

AAAAAhhhhhhh! Terrible one!  Should not take things so personal on here,   Sure it's only full of wannabes.  And why would you think I am not a St. John's man?  Who do you think I am then, Jophn McSparran, Fankie Quinn, Tyrone Eastwood, JM maybe?

Well, new as I am to this board, and I'm sure that you have discussed the matter but we need to start with club hurling.

Our leagues are nothing short of a joke. To resolve this matter we need to get our clubs - yours and mine - to get over the mind set of not playing without County players. Why should 30 odd guys - two teams to play a match including subs - be held ransom because of 3/4 players? It's insane and it's not in anybody's interests not to play matches.

To place the blame at the door of the "County Board"is a kop out. Its the clubs who refuse to play the games. It's the clubs who look for excuses to avoid matches and its the clubs fault that our leagues are in the state that they are in.

I'm sure that this is all old news to those of you who are seasoned campaigners on this site , however, you will forgive me as I'm a newbie.

Could not agree more friend.  Clubs are really selfish by not playing games because of a few county players not involved.

We all credit to St Johns, I'd say they would definitely play championship even without stag party members. Not sure about County players though as they don't have to choose at the minute as far as I know. 

And that is not a problem for us Wiseguy.  Your so full of yourself, are'nt you!

So Mathews is doing the hurling final on Friday night.  I hear he has been in the Sauna and Gym all week trying to shed a few of the surplus pounds!  The guy is just not up with the pace.  Still time for the 'terrible one to get a call up for the line, assuming he has his hair dye done by that time!

Just for  some of the uninitiated.  I don't have a problem with all referees, just some of the pretentious/power freak ones likes, Duffy, Mathews, 'Terrible one' and wonder boy Elliott.  The rest of the guys are sound.

Jim Murray is McD's

was McD's but had a fall out. these things happen

Good man McGourty, you keep him right!

Jim Murray is McD's

So, at last, you dont know it all!  Shame on you.  JM a McD's man!  No way, he is a fully fledged St. John's man now.  County Chairman elect and stongly opposed to the threat by the Shinners from the Upper Springfield.  JM is now strategically placed to fend of the threat of the SF infilitration at Casement.

Most of my postings are very accurate, just cut to the cahse, thats what I say!  Reilly, is a really 'Terrible One'  belive me, has not got a clue about hurling or refereeing.

lads leave the referees alone. there are a group of referees who have played hurling and referee it as they played. some referees even have senior county medals. i refereed last year and due to other commitments this year I'd have done a lot more.

i found it OK and bar some back chat never had a problem. I'll be taking up the refereeing next year again and I'm looking forward to it. don't have referees then we won't have games.

Ray Matthews i believe is doing the interm. final

Ray is one of our better referees and has lost weight recently and looking sharp i hope he has a great game and is not intimidated by others

Ray certainly referee's as he played as he was a gobshite as a player, only kidding Ray if you're still lurking 

You were right the first time Johnny.  A complete and utter Gobshite when he played and still is today!

@ Queenie


who's gonna ref the final, is either team gonna be missing players. really looking forward to it and i believe the Minor Final is now on before it, it should be a good game and i hope Loughgiel can claim the 3 in a row (i think its 3)

Someone called "Speedy" did our league match v Lamh Dherg and had a sound game, let the game flow well and cut out any nonsense before it amounted to anything.  Would he be a contender for the final with Duffy?

Has it been confirmed if there will be a Minor/Senior Hurling Final double header yet?

Speedy!  FFS, he is anything but Speedy!

Who's JM running for county chair? is the doc at the end of his sentence?

Whos JM I hear you say?  Shame on you!

Is Johnson not currently serving a bumper suspension?

It's amazing what you can do when you have the potential new county chairman on your side.  Them north antrim boys are fecked now!  I hope you guys will exercise your vote well at the county convention?

Enough is enough, now time for radical and professional change.

Aaahhhh feck, I see that bollocks Garret Duffy is doing our game on Saturday against Ballygalget, FFS!  What are the county trying to do, reduce us to abou six eligible hurling players.  He is bound to send another three off at least.

Interesting stuff, I would say it has the potential to be a really good game. If both team can go for it and really cut lose. Dont think either team would be worried about the other on their day.

Any more chat on potential candidates for the Antrim job?

I have just heard that one of my own clubmen is going to put his name in the hat for the Hurling Managers position, i.e. M. Johnston.  So what we have is a St. John's man bidding for the hurling supremos job and our own JM bidding for County Chairman.  That is sure to feck the north antrim men up for sure.  The sooner the south antrim people get their foot in the door again the better.
