Antrim Football Thread

Couldn't really fault the lads that took the field today.  Plenty of effort and chances were created, but the composure wasn't there to finish them.
If they stay committed and a few come back from injury then another good run in the Tailteann and a big day in Croke Park is still there.
Both teams are a world away from the top level.

You know Antrim are Div3 and needed to win last game to stay up?

Odd reply to that post?

Yeah it was a reasonable post. I never thought we were a million miles of down but didn't think we could beat them.

Hopefully the players get sent back to their clubs for a bit and we get a few players back from injury and some fitter. Would love to see Loughran and Johnston fit for the half forward line.

I liked McBride's interview afterwards. No more of this brave attempt stuff.

Saying Antrim (and Down) are worlds away from the top level. Stating the obvious

[BrendanAntrim]

It's another championship match which we could have won, didn't win and travel home thinking about what might have been. Couple of our players posted their least effective games so far this year, maybe nerves or whatever, and we had scoring chances not taken. Down are no great shakes and their shooting is off the charts woeful. It was good to see a bit of fighting spirit from our lads, that and a few returning players may give us a summer yet. Marc Jordan must run 10k per match - he is terrific for us.

I hope Eunan Walsh is ok - that looked pretty serious.

Never looked at any stage like they could have won that game
Wake up if you think otherwise bar a couple individual performances the vast majority were shocking twice I counted so called county players couldnt do the basics of picking the ball off the ground.
Down miles ahead of they hadn't a poor day in front of goal there would have been 10 points in it easily.
Take the saff glasses off lads and call it as it is without the excuses
Top to bottom needs worked on from
Development squads to senior
Dads taking charge of development squads can't happen need good coaches and good habits so these lads are ready for county football may be a start too or there will be a few more hammerings dished out to all ages for the foreseeable.

Surely the guy in the back room team throwing pathetic digs at half time will be removed immediately from the set up, embarrassing stuff.

Yeah, anyone that's not involved on the team getting themselves involved with that type of carry on needs removed, embarrassing altogether.

So glad it never happens at club level...

fella threw a dig in the heat of the moment, it happens far more than it should, hopefully he apologised after to the other lad. Take the suspension and move on, if it was a player who threw a dig would we be saying he should never play for us again?

Players are different. Youre in a physical battle on the field. Things are said, contact made, adrenaline etc
The fella throwing boys to the floor and punches is a Statman. 100% should be gone!!!

Like he said

[NorthAntrim]

Also slightly pathetic that he sat and let the wrong man be sent off!

I assume hes in a paid role by Antrim GAA, represeting the team on a professional level. Imagine Andy throwing digs. Embarrassing. Pathetic
