Antrim Football Thread

[delgany]

Suppose you had to be there to hear the ins and outs of it, hard to fathom how Armagh are able to do change back and not decouple an 18 year old from senior football yet we can't find a way. Other counties just seem so much better at everything than us.

Minor is U17 for 2023 so lads in 18th year will be able to.play in adult competitions in 2023, surely

We now seem to have a self appointed Bourgeoise sub committee making all the decisions within the County with Casement or whatever they eventually have to call it and whenever it's eventually built being the prize.

What grades will be played on which days?

Well based on tonight from top table -  minor, reserve and senior are on a Sunday in football and hurling ( hopefully on alternate weeks)

Either we got more referees or they will be doubling up on Sundays!

What's this about?

I see someone becoming more and more involved with Antrim Gaa & im not overly surprised,  a strategic decision I'm guessing that was made with as you say Casement as the prize, for his other main job...........

Or the county could just not have everything on the same day?

We are a dual county, I'm not sure we have the days in the week to fix all the grades... from under 12 up and with the need to look after ladies football and camogie the logistics of things become a hell of a lot harder, its easier for the likes of Tyrone and Armagh to have the fixtures in place if 90% of the games are one code...

County panel needs also play a part in this also

I've not got the ins and outs of it but I don't think its as easy as people think

It's disappointing that this may result in losing kids, the county could look at a separate competition to facilitate that lost aged group but how do you find the time to fit them in..

What's happening at county level then?

Yes

Jeez so senior, minor, and minor all scheduled on a Sunday..

Cargin have had under-age activity on Sunday for a long time, boys and girls 6-11 boys and girls with both pitches hives of activity do the 'powers that be' suggest how such is carried on.
Or just how are those clubs without a second pitch cope.....??

Gonna be some whinging when teams don't have referees for some games. Aren't enough to go round already, now they want 3 games fulfilled in 1 day....and that will also impact on LGFA who play their senior games on a Sunday evening

When the Sundays are hurling you can fit them in no problem

Does anyone know for certain what's happening with promotion/relegation this year?

Why was reserve moved from Friday nights?

Clubs wanted the seniors and reserves playing on the same day...

We asked to go into Div 3 again but senior clubs didn't want second teams in their leagues (we finished mid table)

No doubt there will be other games on Friday night

[JimStynes]

Were minors, reserves and seniors not on Sundays last year as well?
