Spot on boys - i'm sure they have to listen to some dicks on a daily basis but there's probably a less sarcy way of responding

Anything less than a county final appearance would have been deemed a failure, but they got there and competed.Quote from: All seeing I on January 14, 2015, 10:07:24 AMQuote from: themac_23 on January 12, 2015, 10:24:31 PMQuote from: Dunloy realist on January 12, 2015, 09:37:19 PM
Te championship in both football and hurling is to be seeded this year. It was voted in 24-20 in favour of it as the meeting the night.
Top seeds in football are st galls, cargin, St. John's and Rossa.
Top hurling seeds are loughgiel, cushendall, dunloy and ballycastle.
This should make for some debating!
Maybe a stupid question but i take it its only senior? Either way it is disappointing, open draw always adds to the excitement, personally i was delighted to see galls get to a SHC final this year I'm sure it has boosted hurling in the club.
It boosted it so much they haven't even got a senior hurling manager this year - only in St Galls. Clooney Gaels will be the club with the real appetite this year. They'll be back with a vengance and hopefully they'll get a bit of luck in the draw.
I do agree with you on the open draw though - it's the only way to go. Names in a hat, draw them out and whoever is the best will win the championship. The history, passion and pride that's associated with our championship should not be compromised. Open draw - simples!
Has Oliver Bellew packed it in? Why?
I don't think there was ever any doubt that getting to the senior final was ever going to be more than a day out.
No harm to MR2 and his preference for the wee ball, but big ball rules there. And if you don't win a final - then I'm not sure there's much more in it than the day out.
The Johnnies got there a couple of times in the 90s, and Cushendun also.
Does it really matter now?
For Galls I would have thought their victory against Dunloy would have been more of a spur to their potential than the day out for beating Clooney & Sarsfields.
However sadly, I dont see any team in the City putting up a challenge to the Big 3 (sorry Bonamargey!) or Ballycastle either.

Any more match info especially from the City teams?
Shared check-in lounge with a Cork man - not optimistic about the year ahead.
Imagine if he had to support Antrim!
Hopefully the club games started with a bang.
St Galls reportedly had underfiring forwards. Matched Cushendall but couldnt finish.
Portaferry may live to regret not bagging a couple of points against Dunloy later in the year.
Surprised at Ballycastle. Thought they would have won that one at home
Really strange comment there
Dont really understand how that is a strange comment
The way i took it, Portaferry had a chance to beat Dunloy and didnt take it, therefore may regret it later in the season as those 2 points could have been valuable.
Fair enough
Quote from: NAG1 on April 08, 2014, 11:11:35 AMJust from the point of view that it was a tight game that they may have gotten something from considering how badly they fared last year. I would have expected Dunloy to have beaten them quite handily to be honest, but with the tight scoreline if Portaferry had have pushed on that would have been a big two points for them for later in the season.Quote from: All seeing I on April 08, 2014, 10:40:51 AMQuote from: btdtgtt on April 08, 2014, 09:41:40 AMSt Johns and Sarsfields reportedly not of the highest standard - but its only the first game.

Anyway, a little Belfast birdie told me last night that the Andersonstown News were able to publish a comprehensive list of all the Antrim Hurling Fixtures for this season!
After a bit of checking - this has been confirmed.
They are all available on the Antrim website - complete with a wonderful new admin moderator
