I'm not defending anything. If you read back through my posts you will see I would like the introduction of a rule whereby you can only manage your own club.

If it makes you feel better about yourself, by all means give us another emoji though...

Errigal ciaran would have a quare management team if that were the case!

Do you think cargin would have had the success over recent years if they had a club man in and not cassidy. Im 99.9% sure they would have at least 2 cships.

JC won a championship

Oh i know. Point im trying to make is it doesnt matter if it was cassidy in or someone from their club. They would still in as they are that good a team.

Hypothetically, if a glenravel man took the clubs seniors but lived in belfast and he was paid a bit for travel. Would that be cheating?

Travel expenses are fine regardless of where they live, phone usage back in the day was a good money spinner


I dont know if there is a rule or not about paying managers, genuinely dont. But if a club raises funds via lotto, fundraisers etc then what is the problem with them using that money to pay a manager?
It would be against the rules just.


Maybe rossa need to start breaking the rules to win the hurling 😃
There are plenty breaking them and not getting near it....

Lol i know, just joking.

You asked him to explain his decisions and he did then you went on about cavan and tyrone boards! Made no sense whatsoever.

If your team wins, the ref if the best in the county.
If your team loses, its the refs fault.
And thats the way it will be until the end of time

Maybe, just maybe only scoring 0-2 in a half when you have the mccans, shivers, gribben etc is the reason cargin lost? But sure blame the ref 😃
Who blamed the ref?

Your previous post seems to suggest it. Who is to blame for the mighty cargin getting beat then? Cassidy?
Players?
Ref?
Creggan just the better team?

There has to be some excuse so what is it?
Seems to suggest it? No one blamed MR2 for our defeat, just calling out a poor performance from him with some bizarre calls. Are referees immune from criticism or is it just players and managers who can be criticised? You can read back and see I said Creggan deserved to go through.

People not asking for mr2 to explain his decisions and now your complaining when he does it? Lol

I for one think it's refreshing to see the referees perspective, usually can never get a word out of the refs. He even admitted that a call or 2 he made may have been wrong so fair play to him.

Think the game will be tight but creggan to edge it by a few. Creggan the more powerful team but aghagallon might have the better forwards on the day given that quinn and small are missing. Will be an interesting contest and may come down to who can start the 1st 10/15 minutes the best. Creggan could blow them out of the water but equally walsh and loughran could run absolute riot.

I think the game will be very close. Still fancy creggan to win by 2/3 in the end though. Aghagallon have some cracking players and their bench really made an impact against pg1. Although i expect loughran to start if hes fully fit, what a player his is by the way. Just think creggans experience will get them over the line.

Only seen the hit on facebook and it was a textbook shoulder. However, i can understand why a free was given in real time. Refs have a split second to make a decision, it probably looked like a foul to the ref given the way the creggan player got absolutely cleaned out (albeit fairly).

Show me a man who says they would be a ref in Antrim football and i'll show you a liar.
