Was at reserve game tonight and great to see attacking football and more importantly men enjoying the game they were playing, great entertainment.

Left panel after being dropped for last league game.

I imagine the Antrim panel won't be Kerr free for championship 

[rogercasement]

If Luke Mullholland goes to States does that rule him out for championship? With respect if it does Aghagallon aren't getting to the heights they did last year with out him. Serious baller and tactical mind.

Don't rate Luke so highly Rc, had a few mares for club and county las season, Oisin went to pieces in the Limerick and Louth games, so Mick is getting his chance by default, he's a really good keeper, bit of a wing nut but sure most good keepers are

A tactical mind?  What do you base that on?

[bannside]

Luke a great keeper in my book and definitely a huge loss to his club. Kickouts are top notch. Let the young man enjoy his summer in the states and I'm sure he will be back contesting the county no 1 spot with Michael next year.

[rogercasement]

Tactical mind wrong use of words. I'll replace it with fantastic vision when standing over his kickouts.

Was Oisin Kerr the only one to walk away?

Not sure but one thing is certain and that is a huge buy in from the players is needed this pre-season in order to keep moving forward. I can see it as being make or break.  We cannot stand still otherwise we will be clinging on for survival rather than taking the brave step forward towards Div 2.  Need followers who believe in the journey on board

Dunno what you men by 'huge buy in' Spike the programme for those on the panel this year has demanded huge commitment, 4/5 sessions per week which obviously meant socialising was almost non existent.

'Buy in' was not a problem for those who gave up a lot in the Saffron cause. Our problem, and excluding those who were called did not answer, is a lack of talent within our county and I would ask you to consider the make up of our under 20 team which came close to upsetting Derry with one club responsible for supplying about 30% of the panel.

Lotta noise about those who Mc Ginley missed in his call to arms, but just where are those talented who can raise our profile....?
Watch a lot of football, and cannot see those who can gallop to Antrims rescue....

[Milltown Row2]

Jesus 

[bannside]

Lotta noise! One of the 30% musn't have got a call up? I'd say the nephew got one all the same, Yes/No. Definitely good enough to be fair.

Are you staying on for another year after this or will you boys move onto bigger and better things if you get an offer?

I'd say hotly tipped to help out with the Dublin job considering Farrell is in trouble

Lotta noise=lotta muttering from fireside coaches...
Got no nephews seeking a Saffron jersey, but have a grandson playing for Antrim under u14s today.

Just whom do u suggest did Mc Ginley leave out of his plans BS......?
As I said seen a lot of football in the recent past but have not noticed any.

For your info BS....the current management do have their eyes firmly on 2 from the lads from Cargin from the under 20 team...

[bannside]

Lol, I meant Endas nephew, not yours!
