SFC Lamh Dhearg v Rossa in Corrigan @ 3.30pm  Lahm Dhearg

Some price Rossa at 33/10. Won't be in the least bit surprised to see then beat Lamh Dhearg if they are anywhere near full strength.

The only 'upset' game

[bannside]

The Lamhs beat us by 4 but it wasn't nearly a four point game if you get my drift. We missed a lot of scorable chances and LD were much more clinical than us. But on other days our chances would have been converted but that's football, so no complaints from us. I liked the look of Rossa when I saw them. Plenty of talent there helped by the addition of some great minors recently.

Only problem is they never seem to get them on the pitch at the same time whatever the problem is. At full strength they would be a handful for most teams (in my humble opinion anyway).

[Peileadoir]

Getting to the business end of the season. Also think Rossa could spring an upset v Lamh Dhearg. Think Brennan will have Cargin focused v Creggan and cant see an upset. Although Creggan will have Conor Small in their ranks after using him very sparingly to concentrate on the minor this year. He will be a big bonus. Would be great to see a Rossa v Creggan final!

Also really important weekend in Division 2 where Ballymena should get the win the need v St. Enda's to seal promotion although the Glengormley me are on a high after winning the minor c'ship. But at the other end of the table relegation is still on the cards for any 2 from 5 teams after Glenavy saved themselves last week when St. Brigids put out a dud team against them to concentrate on winning the reserve league.
Word on the street is that Moneyglass are gonna do the same thing as St. Brigid's against Tir na nOg this weekend since its a dead rubber for them, and Tir na nOg need a win or they get relegated. They feel they got shafted last year when St. Teresa's and Gorts played out a draw on last day of season to suit both teams. Although if its a city v country nonsensical thing this will mean that Rasharkin are back in the mix and will need to win their last game away to Gorts to secure their status.

 St brigids could lose out  yet ! Time will tell!

Mr Power is the man...................will u remember ur friends when u collect ur 2k MR2

[Milltown Row2]

Never in doubt!! Holidays paid then 

[Milltown Row2]

Disappointing for us today.
Lámh Dhearg were slightly the better team but we had our chances to win it.
I think we were robbed of a draw though. It was a certain (easy) free in at the death but not given.
That's sport. Ah well....

Always next year

[country bumpkin]

U were robbed indeed HS, and everybody in the ground saw the foul.....except the ref.
Was not impressed by the Lamhs, and they seem utterly reliant on the excellent Conor Murray...................I am a touch biased but if cargin still have the JB factor within it is their's to lose

It was a free. As cb says, everyone I spoke to (including Johnnies men  ) thought it was a free and he had been giving frees for similar and less all day.

But....he got it wrong. Our players made many mistakes that, had they not, we'd could have won the game.

It's tough. It happens everyone at some stage.

Agreed and games aren't won or lost (or in this case drawn) on one borderline free... Rossa are a young team plenty to work on .... Lamhs have got out of jail twice this year... Could be difference in close games... Plus they have beaten Cargin in championship recently
