Antrim Hurling

[Seamroga in exile]

If the BBC get any coverage it will be front and centre on bulletins tomorrow.

McCooey's should be ashamed of themselves.

What just all of them in general?

Just MR2.

Under 16's ffs, too many e numbers, the amount of games where the lads at that age get carried away is nuts. It just takes one thing to kick off. Ya need to blow for every challenge to ensure there is no niggles going on

You expect people on the sidelines to have a bit more sense. Isn't that part of their remit in juvenile games.

They are the ones usually egging them on ffs, head da balls, I canny wait to hear who's involved and whats done about it

You've been spending too much time in north Antrim.

Whoever headbutted the female reporter deserves a lifeban.

A bad reflection on all involved.

"The story goes".....A bit of argy bargy, young lad from Sarsfields steps back and pulls across Glenshesk lad's head. Glenshesk lad's da runs on and whacks Sarsfields yound lad. A member of an infamous Sarsfields family runs on and whacks him. Madness after that. The camerawoman was apparently done by one of the aforementioned infamous family.

Yeah that's about the height of what I heard.

Oh dear HS! Assuming that's all true:

I suppose we'll sit back and wait on the repercussions but I believe that family barely even speak to each other!

Not remotely defending (obviously) the mentors actions nor the players - but the parent that jumped the wire is just as (if not more) guilty and and to blame.

An adult entering the field to strike a juvenile?
The initial strike can be dealt with using the ref & the rules - this action precipitates the rest of the events - which again I am not defending one bit.

This parent has a lot to answer for.

In my day ya really didn't see too many parents turning up for the games, the obvious ones were of course club men who's sons played, outside of that there wasn't many there, now ffs ya can't get them off the line, and in most cases never played the game but are telling the manager what to do!!! Telling their kids to 'get him son'!!

My dad turned up for a few games, wasn't a Gaa man at all, got him to go to a football semi final once, a fight broke out, I'm in the middle of it, as I got in the car to go home my dad hit me a clip round the ear for fighting!! That's the way it was

All clubs have a code of conduct for supporters at games, nothing is ever done to these parents when they break those rules, through maybe fear of that parent taking Johnny away to another club!!

[btdtgtt]

Indeed MR2 and given the way parents & kids are nowadays a solicitor on the end of the phone!

If Some animal pulled across the head of my kid I would struggle to contain myself to. That's one time where emotion overriding logic and rules could be forgiven

That's exactly why there's so much of this crap year after year in Antrim. U-16 grade was by far the worst for it, in my experience. 

[Sleeping giant]

And the young city lads got awarded the cup. As Glenshesk didn't agree to a replay.  Are you f--king serious?

Portaferry   1-8   3-18   Loughgiel Shamrocks   

Ballycran   8-16   1-11   St John's GAC   

Ruairí Óg   3-11   1-14   Ballygalget   

O`Donovan Rossa GAC  2-12   5-21   Mac Uilin CLG

Nice wee win for a much changed shamrocks team today down on the peninsula. Four starting from the championship winning team of last week. Some big scores in the other matches.

Ballycran and Ballycastle fairly hitting the onion bag. 

I hear the ref in the Rossa match wasn't up to much.

Wee bit late in the year for that type of scoring, pointless games unless you're fighting to win league (no one cares about that) or relegation
