Cushendall failed the field yesterday, arranged the game for 1 and didn't show. claimed they only had 12 players available for the game. are the rumours true. all our footballers where going to play as well.

at the dunloy game my mate said there was enough Cushendall men at the match to have played us

That is bad form .... its not ideal playing league games at this time of year I know but a bit of social hurling at this time of year when the fixture has been arranged does no harm. That is showing total disrespect to hurling by not fielding yesterday. Did they forget that in the previous two years that everyone else was playing these games out. Remember Dunloy had a great oul tussle with St Galls last year in November....nothing to play for (oh bar the league ...the draw cost us  >:() but both teams really enjoyed the match. Do Cushendall feel they are above hurling "meaningless" matches these days?

dont think its Cushendall skull, just a select few guys who have been listening to Balboas friend for too long.  ;)

dont think the fact that no reserve hurlers made themselves available due to playing their reserve semi on saturday night helped.

was told by a very good source milltown that they only could muster up 12 men.

they rung round but couldnt get anymore, guys had phones turned off. N McManus who could go to play for Ulster the day before couldnt get out of his bed to play for his club. although he wasnt the only one, cant remember who else he said didnt turn up. bad attitude seems to be running through that team, doesnt bode well for the future.

i dont belive that the Dall have made any excuse's for getting beat,  they know the better team on the day won. they have a fair idea to some of the reasons why they didnt perform on the day and got beat.

Dunloy looked sharpe in both games and IMO this was down to their desire to win and the amount of games they played this year compared to others.

every team in the county needs games and meaningful games at that if things are going to improve.

have to agree with both Skull & Max, This is the main way forward, its simple, no matter what else we do, if we dont play the games we cant improve.

But i do disagree that this was mainly down to the County Board and management, from what i know it was mainly down to Dunloy themselves who fixed matches and to me this is the main reason why they won the SHC this year.

was talking to a C'dall player and he said from the start of the SHC league section at end of July they had 1 league game and that was against portaferry the week before the Dunloy game. not sure about other teams.

Looks like Antrim are going to make an application to play in the munster shc.

Cant see it succeeding, Munster does not need us. The Munster championship would lose some of its lustre & prestige if Antrim were getting beat out the gate every year. It may raise Sambos profile, which he seems keen on, but would it really help Antrim hurling?

I see that chip on the shoulder about Sambo is still very apparent. whats wrong Rocky, did he throw you out of the saffron.

totally agree fullback, i think the reaction by Dida might actually save Celtic

his reaction seems to be the main talking point, rather than the mindless idiot who ran onto the pitch.

this made me so hard.

i hope something happens to the idiot that went onto the pitch and also to Dida, how embarrassed must he be when he watches that today

i know its not exactly the same, but i remember Rivaldo (i think) getting the ball kicked at him and going down like he was shot, was he banned or anything for that.  not sure about this so correct me if i am wrong.

Well the way i llok at it there are plenty of threads that in my opinion are total dross and as such i do not post on them/read them. There are enough entertaining/interesting threads to keep most people happy in my opinion, everyone wont be happy but unfortunately thats just life. As a man once said to me you can either like it or turn your arse to it........

Just becareful who you turn you arse to, you mightn't like it....

or even worse you might like it

sorry that was only a one line reply.....................woohoo, thats two lines now   :D   :D

firstly the 'goal' cushendall got in the first half, didn't cross the line, it got as far as the line and was picked of the ground (so should have been a free) there was a case for square ball.

think you have this one wrong max, the ball was def over the line, once if not twice and your right the goalie did lift it of the ground and how the umpire didnt see any of the 3  i dont know as i could see the the ball over the line and lifting of the ground from where i was.

i dont think that should be dwelled on though, not sure if it would have made much difference in the end, the better team won, Most of Cushendall players got out of the game exactly what they put into it.

looking forward to a good final.
