Not many surprises tonight. The only one maybe being Davitt beating randalstown in div 2

bannside

We had a good old tussle against the county champions up in Hannahstown. Albeit they were without the redoubtable Ryan Murray. But we will take a few positives from it.

Some win for big Fitzy and St Endas....not to many teams come out of Ahoghill with a win as big as that. Some start for them.
Nice start for Creggan and St Galls too. In div two there will be some head scratching around Ballymena and Randalstown!

Cuchullians-Dunloy 3-0  -   0-8 All Saints Ballymena

Has a GAA team ever won a match before without putting the ball over the bar !
Or is this a typo ?



Treble 6 Nations Fantasy Rugby champion 2008, 2011 & 2012

 2 of the goals were in injury time!!

Na Glinntí Glasa

not a typo. there was an absolute gale force wind blowing down the pitch and it was a total nightmare for both sides. it was 0-07 to 1-00 before we got a penalty to make it 2-00 to 0-07. All Saints scored another point before we scored a final goal in injury time.

A real classic for the ages lol
hurl like f**k boi!

Stand out result definitely St Endas winning away from home in their first match in Div 1 in a long time. Really good for promoted teams to get a good start......

I think Loch Lao is the original Irish name for Belfast Lough?

Where have they got all the players from? Is it ones playing for no other clubs or did they get a lot of tranfers in?

The KINGS of Antrim football have risen. St Galls back on the match  8)

I fancy a strong St John's challenge this year for the SFC. Lots of young exciting players who haven't grown up in awe of St Galls the way others might have been.  St Enda's to stay up. Good work going on up there.  Might well be St Teresa's year to finally fall. Fair play to them. Great effort to stay up for so long especially with little to no underage work to show over the years.

St Brigids I reckon will go up.  They seem to score loads of goals in Division 2 and that will be the big difference in tight matches.    O'Donnells to go down.

Loch Lao team going to struggle massively.  They seem to have a lot of Gort players and a few from St Pauls judging by social media.  Glenravel going to be too strong for everyone.

I think it'll be a fight between LD and Cargin.  St Johns have missed their chance and change of management won't help them.  Creggan perennial dark horses - always tricky but if they are going to make it, then it has to be this year as a culmination of all their efforts as past ten years. Now or never. st galls will be dangerous and cant be underestimated but will be a surprise if they beat LD or Cargin.   

But sure its only the start of the year, plenty of time for form, injuries, suspensions, luck, weather, grass length etc to all create the drama  :D

Sorry if this has been touched on before but what way minor championship work now? I see Antrim are down to play Fermanagh. Why does it not follow same pattern as senior draw? Used to be good for young lads to play in front of a big crowd before the senior game. Cant imagine there will be too many at the Fermanagh game
