👆 What he said.

I remember at the time it sent chills through the whole  nationalist community. Just listening to Talkback and Trevor Birney talking about and how attacking someone like Sean Brown was a deliberate ploy as he was decent and could not be associated with any paramilitary organisation. It was purely to put fear and Terror through a whole community by striking at its centre.

We had just won the AI and had beaten Bellaghy in the Ulster final before Christmas 1996. There was a crew of us living in Belfast and we had close relationships on and off the field with a lot of the Bellaghy lads. It struck hard. I remember travelling home at the time and we regularly changed out pick up spots etc. Going to matches in Lurgan and that was always a concern as well. How the f**k was that normal? 

Unfortunately we normalised it at the time and adopted

My dad handed me the book The Shankill butchers when it came out

Made me read it before I headed out that weekend, needless to say that put the willies up me for that period of heading out! 

Absolutely horrible book. Really tough. I read the book called committee. Really opened my eyes as a teenager growing up.

Only policeman you trust is a dead one.

The RUC were total scumbags as are the current version of the PSNI. We are just sh!t on their shoes!

Best of luck to Andy and the senior squad as they head to Pairc Esler tomorrow evening.

It was a privilege to have been there 14 months ago to see us going at Down in the league, for definite one of my proudest nights as an Antrim Supporter, even in defeat.

We are 9 players missing from the team that represented us that night, and that's a massive loss, but the boys getting a jersey tomorrow night have nothing to lose but go out and perform and hopefully stay in the contest long enough to put a doubt in Downs head.

Best of luck all.

Agree 100%. We can only work with what we have so let's do it.


Good luck lads.

Forgot about the whole thing. Throw everything we have into Scor.

County players available for this weekend?

6 Days before Ulster championship match?

Thought it was a fortnight away. My bad

County players available for this weekend?

Absolutely tragic for all involved this week and a sad cloud over the Toome & Duneane parish.

Puts in all into perspective.

Look after yourself and your mates. I know I've found alot of comfort in the depression thread on this board.

Terrible tragic news.

Good win today for the men's senior team and the Belfast ladies team!

Super Sundays indeed

You need to whist...

They both need to whist....

A substantial boost to the senior panel going by that press release.

Much needed boost also.

Antrim for Leinster

Brighter days ahead comrades.

Keep talking and keep fighting the good fight

We'll do them at Snake Mountain. 2-0. Idah with a double

Tip the hat to Niall. Blow in to the county living here and providing a free service and observations of our county set up with no agenda other than bettering antrim football, probably for the sake of his children who will be future Antrim Gaels.

He's getting £30k a year and a new car out of it from what I'm told. 😜
