Wasnt at the game so relying on a good source

Cargin also scored a few late goals when the game was dead to put a gloss on the scoreline??

I was at it and your source has gave you a phoney account.
Listen I have seen many people comment on here within last 12 months about Bakers negative tactics, I commented something similar after watching them last night.
Ballymena scored their goal along with 3 or 4 points in the last 10 mins, Cargin were 7 points up at half time ended up scoring 6 goals, could have been 10. Just being honest.

You should have went yourself rather than rely on wee Paddy's report.
Ballymena are a well organsised team to be fair to them, just prob need to work on the fitness to keep the lung busting forward runs required up for 60mins

Still awaiting this referee's report 

You lead a sad life if you are waiting on that

I think it's the guy O Callaghan who has all saints playing the way they are,plus the older players in the squad seem to have a big say behind the scenes regarding the set up,not to many listen to what the Baker shouts which is mostly abuse

Are they allegedly playing well? I saw them tonight, fist passing the ball to eachother along the midfield line back and forward, barely ever kicking the ball and conceding every single kickout. If this is playing well I give up.

Yeah apparently between Toome and Sarsfields. Two young fellas had a scuffle then parents and spectators involved. Not nice to see at underage games

Just have to await the official referees report, take it from there

100% SO82 about those two!

Let's just say their progress has been noted! Two of our best performers in last years narrow under 20 defeat to Donegal on penalties in Ballybofey..

Add Cahir Donnelly and Johnny Hannon to the promising U20 players above, both v impressive in Cargin v Aghagallon game last night. Not a dig, but Aghagallon quite negative throughout which made Johnnys coring performance all the more impressive.

With the team they had out It's difficult to 'open' up against such a talented Cargin team away from home?

Yes, that is why I said not a dig

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

Let's hope there was a really strong wind with that u20 half time score...

It looks like Tyrone and Derry u20s are two of the top teams in Ireland at this level, Monaghan losing to Tyrone by the same as we lost to Derry tonight.  Nonetheless there is no doubt we are in a bad place across all underage levels in football.

Any objections to Glenravel and Aldergroves inclusion in div 1 now? Both taking pts off top half teams?

Who objected to Glenravels inclusion? they were promoted from Div2. On Aldergrove, come back on here at the end of the league and summarise how they have performed. 'Top half team' is a very broad statement in a 16 team league

I thought it depended on the severity or length of suspension?

It does depend on severity, Category V and VI suspensions are across codes and all levels.

not in this case lads

What case?

No case, meant this instance.

If we ever had a football sub committee  their first job should be to reduce division 1 to 8 teams. There are so many sub standard teams in there, at least 4 of them would be in Division 3/4 in any other county and it's doing no one any favours, them or other teams that strive for better.

Explain how having 8 teams would make the county better? A nice condescending tone from a Cargin man in his ivory tower.

Agree with IBS my point exactly,
In the same vein All Star can you explain for example how Cargin/Portglenone/Creggan playing Aldergrove (a team who couldnt gain promotion out of Division 2 on their own merit) makes the county better? No offence meant to anyone in Aldergrove by the way. Forget about scorelines in March i'm taking a wider view on it. Come the championship there will some seriously one sided games
