any word on bakers backroom team?

heard richard ferris, from drumsurn is one man.
also heard he wanted tony scullion to help out but think tony is for taking derry minors.

jees boys, baker is in the post all of 24hrs and yous have him gone already.
niall conway is a very good & able assistant, i also hear wee paddy mcneill who trained cargin this year will be in as trainer also.

give them a chance, get behind them and then make your judgements.
theres enough talent in the county to get out of div 4.

i would like to see baker bringing in the likes of micko herron & kevin mcgourty.
if anyone can get the best out of them i think baker can.
after all he has had to deal with this type of player before in his 2 sons!

i dont think it would have mattered who was appointed, some people would never be happy.

good luck to baker, niall & wee paddy.

Glensman what can you do, we played lamhs week before football final and they fielded weakened team, understandably.
yesterday galls turned up late with fifteen men & karl stewart had to go off after 5 mins with blow to nose, never reappeared, galls played with 14 rest of match. galls played rightly until second half, they were 1 down at ht. they have bigger fish to fry and are sitting ok in hurling league.
to be fair, they fielded a handful of footballers, cj, ciaran ga-ga, sean burke, anto healy & karl stewart.
when we played lamhs they didnt play any footballers at all.
if only we had of scored 2 more last thursday night, when it mattered.

glenravel are on downward spiral in both codes, regelated in div2/3 hurling & bottom of div 2 in football.

[HIRARIOUS,]

yeah mikey seems a shoe in, did you see him last night rolling around the garden pissing himself laughing after soaking the rest of them in water.

HIRARIOUS,

think he deserves to win, he hasnt been hanging on anyone elses coat-tails the whole time & has said it as it is.

think darnell got a bit of a shock as to how the housemates pretended to be him.
cant stand the man, not that im racist, well how can you be racist against a white guy
think what gets him most is that mikey has got more respect in the show than him,
without looking for pity or everyones sympathy.
thats why he always harps on about being black/white/albino,
get over yourself ffs.

did anyone see kat on bblb yest, what a feckin put on show.
all that happy,happy,happy, cookie shite.

Not anything too serious I hope Culchy?

fairly serious as far as i'm aware.
he was in car accident on monday morning.

Just like to send my best wishes to Niall Doyle after his accident on monday, hope for a speedy recovery.

Thoughts and prayers are with him & his family.

great result for rasharkin on friday night beating a much fancied st pauls team.
they got out of the blocks far quicker than st pauls and really should have been up by more at half-time, they led 1-6 to 0-2, i think.
st pauls got back into it at start of second half & got back on level terms with about ten mins to go.
i thought rasharkin would have shit the nest at that stage but they were able to just keep themselves in front as they had done for the whole match..
well fought and hard earned win, but lamh dhearg will be another tough match for them.

think the standard of reffing in both sfc matches was poor, boths ways, very inconsistent.

in the galls match kevin mcgourty got closelined, ref gave free against him for overcarrying, some very disgruntled milltown men in stand.

both games next week should be tight enough affairs, thought they could have played them as double header but sure that would make too much sense.

was anyone at the st pauls versus gorts match at weekend?
did anyone hear why barry burns was sent off, was it straight red ?

big loss for them if it was.

Apparently he turned up for the team bus for the wicklow match full drunk!

might have something to do with it.

i'm sure kevin will express himself on the issue when brendy crossan catches up with him.
if only he wud take his head from his arse and just play football.

skull, i agree with your sentiments, but there are some clubs who dont have anyone from within their club that can or will take on a senior job.
there for they see it as reasonable to pay someone who has the criteria to do the job.

we have in past years payed men hand over fist, throwing good money after bad.
but it doesnt bring you success, so this year we havent jumped on the band wagon,
and are trying to get a clubman to take on the job.

hopefully this will end the trend within the club.
our manager last year just walked before the end of the season and now hes going for jobs in armagh and tyrone,
he used us as a stepping stone and got a pound or two for his troubles.

tell me more on the mcpoland fight? he can be a ###### mcpoland

duffy was umpiring and at ht went for a smoke at the back of the stand
when he tried to get in again, i think you have to buzz someone to let you in
and mcpoland, who was doing steward, being his usual self ignored him, then when duffy got in after standing there for a couple of minutes, with everyone waiting on him to restart the match, he exchanged words with roly poly,
and handbags ensued!

A good result last night alrite for rasharkin.
Wasnt good for the owl ticker near the end, rasharkin showed how much they wanted back in div1 again after having a good lead in the first half, when moneyglass didnt score for the first 20 minutes with the score 1-07 to 0-0.
then they let their gaurd slip and went in at ht 1-07 to 2-01, after a few dubious refereeing decisions.
in the second half rasharkin kept that 2/3 lead the whole way through til moneyglass brought it back to a single point with 5 mins to go. then paul doherty came forward to score a great point for rasharkin to settle their nerves and j mcaleese settled the game with a difficult free.
ft score 1-14 to 3-05

was a fairly clean game throughout apart from a scuffle at ht.
the scuffle incidently didnt involved anyone from rasharkin or moneyglass.
one of the nuetral umpires think it was duffy from st galls and big roly poly mcpoland from eire og were trying a few wwf moves on eachother. mr duffy didnt make it out for the second half.

Your man Quinn must have done alrite for Rashrakin this year. I believe hes sniffing around a number of clubs in Armagh at the minute

Enda quinn walked away from the rasharkin job after the last div 2 game against glenravel citing work commitments for his reason of leaving. dont know his real reasons but think he helped to motivate rasharkin last night by not being there.
any team in armagh are welcome to him, hes abit inexperienced and naive!

any1 know why the Rasharkin/ Moneyglass game wasnt played??

are Dunloy gettin a chance to play thier remaining fixtures or did the game fall foul of the weather??

playoff was cancelled due to the amount of rain that fell on saturday!

and dunloy are relegated to div 2

Rasharkin/Moneyglass playoff is at casement on thurs night 7.30pm

we will never that now skull, there are good managers in the club, its just most of them have either been there done it before or
they dont want to try it just yet.

we have spent far too much on managers in the past without anything to show for it, but if no one else is willing do it within the club then you have to go down that route.

Culchy - how did yous get on this season with the Moortown man at the helm? (His name escapes me at the moment he was Quinn)

we done not so bad l'shore lad. aye it was enda quinn from the moortown.
finished up second in div2 on points difference, 6 points to be exact.
we are now waiting on a playoff with second bottom of div 1 to see if we go up or not.
but dunloy are bottom at the min with 5 games left, so their involvement in ulster has held this up.
it will probably be lamh dhearg or moneyglass we play as dunloy will get enuf pts to get them safe.

enda has actually quit as our manager a couple of days after our last match he phoned up to say he couldnt do it anymore because of work committments, a job he had been doing since jan, seems a bit strange with one game to go that hes quit,
but its up to himself, not the best way to leave a club.
maybe hes been offered the moortown job!
