Antrim Football Thread

[Pjoe]

Before getting onto the game, the setup for last night's game was shameful.
As for the game itself, at least Lenny will have worked out by now who isn't going to cut it. Centre half back is a major problem-Antrim got back in the game twice only for St Mary's to cut through the middle for easy goals.
Having heard much about CJ and his fitness, he still has the ability to take scores from range that is lacking elsewhere in the side.

The set up?

Patrons only allowed on one side of pitch, no scoreboard, no facilities for hot drinks, no flag, no anthem...........

This was the only pitch available? where would you have preferred it? Athletic Grounds?

Cargin would have been a better venue. Jesus they even have a scoreboard!!

We have access to a great facility when most other pitches in Ulster are not available at this time of year (how many McKenna Cup games called off on Sunday???) and people still find something to complain about.  Why do you think the Cavan game was played at Woodlands too? None of the clubs could/would make their pitch available (understandable given the weather)

Thought the set up was decent last night, parking in car park available right beside pitch, quick access to purchasing tickets , and able to watch the game unobstructed. The surface also added to the speed of the game.

A coffee at half time would have been nice, but beggars can't be choosers.

Exactly, quit your whingein! Its McKenna Cup and a chance to get lads some competitive game time and for management to take a look ahead of the league. I'd rather be in our boat then Derrys last weekend who travelled all the way to Armagh for nathin!
