Antrim Football Thread

It's seniors or nothing for antrim social media in most cases. That and business.

(BTW it is not a task I would want to do however I do think the coverage of it is poor. Yes Sean Kelly was good but you get posted senior championship draws and nothing else, county underage gets little coverage and saffron business forum etc gets flat out coverage. I get we need money to sustain ouselves but we'll get more of it if we market our things right)

Saffron Gael had decent report on both reserve finals ...

But it's only reserve, outside of the the clubs involved not many are or will be bothered to turn up, good weather or not.

SENIOR
LD V Dunloy - LD by narrow margin.
Creggan V PG1 - Struggling with this one. PG1 injuries should see Creggan edge it.
Cargin V A'gallon - Cargin but this will be tighter than people think.
St.Brigids V Rossa - Lavey crew now firing, Lavey to win by 5+

INTERMEDIATE
Ardoyne V Ballymena - Draw/Pens
Glenravel V Gorts - Glenravel by 5+
St.Teresas V N.Seamas - Tight one. NS to shade it
Sarsfields V St.Pauls - St.Pauls to cruise through in derby by 4+

I take it your club has a busy p r o I T G busy sending a selection of your club activities and media including S G ignore....

It has a brilliant pro.

Nothing to do with the saffron Gael as they are fantastic.

Indeed ITG, Saffron Gael one of our biggest assets in promoting gaa culture across the county.  Imagine the void should for any reason they stop/cannot supply this great service.

Good reserve final tonight, Cargins young guns seeing it out against a host of aging legends of Antrims greatest ever club team, in front of a large crowd in Dunsilly.

Was a lovely night out watching reserve football, I've done a few reserve games this year, you'd barely get one man and his dog staying behind to watch.

The kids ( a couple of aul lads) of Cargin played very well to close out an entertaining game.

Good article in the Irish news about Dunloy footballers. They are definitely a club who have produced some good footballers over the years despite hurling has taken precedence. Them and ld should be very interesting.

Good win for them in that reserve cup last night too.

I fancy them tomorrow night to cause an upset, very good side

Very good article, I remember minor football Championship first round going down to Dunloy on a wet Friday night, we went down with a very good minor team, not expecting a difficult game, we came a way (luckily) with a 1 point win, Ally elliott and dick Pappy and the the rest of that cracking hurling team all were top footballers, they got to a senior semi final I think one year or certainly a quarterfinal at Casement that I remember

DL getting a lengthy suspension ?

Creggan PG1 a good game. Cargin to win handy and fancy St Brigids too. An upset with Dunloy and LD possible. Hearing a suspension rumour too out of LD.

Intermediate should go to plan. Cant see any slip ups

3 months

must be a while since Ld and Dunloy played a senior football match against each other

Good to hear there was a large crowd. Reserve football is 100% neglected and looked down on by club members and sometimes senior managers. A good reserve game is as entertaining as some senior games

[imtommygunn]

Pathway to senior football too. To me it's crucial to the development of your senior team.

Reserve Football  is more enjoyable to watch, open free flowing football !
