Eamon Fyfe and kevin small axed from county squad apparantly

Not invited? Or dumped?

Let go the man says

You brought it up?

Doubt Kevin Small cut, seem he has not reported for duty as yet......had a long year and probably more than satisfied with the reward gained.
Could not fault him taking a well earned rest.
Dunno about young Fyffe....

Tir na Og holding their own in the first 30...

5-3 the score,

Tight finish

[Hoof Hearted]

Moortown take the lead for the first time in 6th minute of injury time to win by a point!!

Black card at the end didn't help. Can't fault their effort.

[Hoof Hearted]

I'd say they'll be happy with their lot for the season
Promotion and championship
Today a bonus but will no doubt be gutted at the Manor of the defeat

Game should have been over at half time.

Dominated play but just couldn't put the scores on the board to show it.

2nd half very scrappy which didn't suit us as we had the beating of them on football terms.

Gifted them the last two scores.

Lads can hold their heads high as they've done their town and county proud and a bit of luck today and they could have had an Ulster final to end the year.

That's disappointing.  Kick of a ball from an Ulster Final.  Creggan kick of a ball from being on the tv tonight also. Im convincing myself the cup is half full.

[rogercasement]

The similarities between the Creggan and Tir na nog games are frightening, both should have won.

I was saying earlier that we aren't blessed with forwards - and now I'm picking up that Aghagallons Ruairi Mc Cann has been released from the squad, and Adam Loughran has removed himself from the panel. Interested to see who is actually on the panel this year!

From last years cship panel....

Niall Mc Keever Niall Delargy Mark Sweeney Paddy Cunningham Justin Crozier Adam Loughran Ruairi McCann Kevin Small. Plus Conor Small Ciaran Bradley are not involved this time round. That's quite a list.

To be fair, your observations are poor enough.

[Sportacus]

Sean Laverty is a fine referee.  The way he clearly and visibly explained to the player why he was getting a red for the shoulder to the face was top notch.

[rogercasement]

Not once did I criticise Sean's refereeing ability, I think he is by some distance the best in Antrim. I was just saying he seemed to be getting it tight physically last night.
