Antrim Minors Management Team

Sean Mc Goldrick - St Teresas (manager)
Niall Ward - St Johns
Gareth Neeseon - Ahoghill
Conor Mc Cann - St Teresas

Doing a great job it must be said.  Missing a few of their best players too who would be assets if available. Ryan Stranney and Domnall Nugent are two in particular that would stand out.

Think if Tony Scullion is fit there will be seven from Cargin lining out in the Saffron against Donegal......................we have a chance! ;)

of fluffing your lines and choking  ;)

Cargins lads as usual playing well for Antrim. Not Tonys best fan but his experience alone would be great to have. Donegal have some big players. Kavanagh Gallagher Murphy all top drawer players. Venue picked?

Cheers Bannside. Agree, fair play to them. Why are those lads missing?

As far as I know PaddyJohn both have foot injuries of some kind. Stranney scored three goals for Lamh Dearg and a few points in a Div 1 league match a few weeks ago before getting carried off. Nugent was a regular for Antrim U 21s in midfield, and played too for St Johns seniors last year at CHB at 17 years old! Two big misses at minor level.

Do Antrim supporters suffer from bipolar disorder?

We perform badly and we're the worst in the world and expectations at an all time low. We win a game against average opposition and elation and levels optimism go through the roof?

If we we're to take the long view is the reality not in the middle somewhere? Currently we're not anywhere close to being as good as alot of supporters would make us out to be.

Had a quick flick through the records last night.  It seems 2-18 is Antrim's highest Ulster Championship score since 1950 when we beat Derry 5-10 to 0-5 at Corrigan Park (ah, them were the days).  This was obviously a time when we had our boot to the Oakleafers' throats since we beat them 5-9 to 1-6 at Magherafelt in 1949.  We also beat Down 4-10 to 0-01(!) in 1932.

Have a pile of tickets to sell for our club draw up in the Belfast area, £10 each or £20 for 3, top prize is £3000! Where would be the best areas/streets to target in the South Belfast direction or what would my best plan of action be? The sort of areas where there is plenty of money, and willing to give to a GAA club?

Good luck getting people handing over a tenner at their front door. Would you not be better to do the rounds of GAA clubs in the west on a Friday or Saturday evening? Or queens union?
