SIE how long is chopper mcgarry retired, he was a fabulous servant to the red and white down through the years must be sorry he missed out.  a friend was telling me the great pj used to take the bellaghy camogs, was that his only managerial experience before the loughgiel job

if rossa are playing Dunloy they must be taking things quite seriously this year
Not sure what you mean here but they had to play them, it was an Ulster league fixture. If you mean 'beating Dunloy', well, aye, it's a good result but our other results haven't been very good.
yeah the 2 point win, thats good going, i take it hamill and kettle are still the leaders, which sometimes might not be a good thing, however they can both hurl

if rossa are playing Dunloy they must be taking things quite seriously this year and showed very well against the all ireland champs in glenravel last year, a game which i i attended, i remember mr watson had a nite to forget.  galls i reckon will be going very well and glenariffe  like galls put in a good championship performance against the dall.  reckon it will come down to the head to heads though someone will get caught out by randalstown.

really looking forward to casement tomorrow, will get in early for front seat in stand.  i hear jerry is going to let them go man to man tomorrow and move away from a more sweeping role for mcmanus.  not before time.  Saffrons abu

Welcome to the board saffron89.

I don't think there's as much in it as you think at the minute. They played other a couple of months back when both teams were playing warm up matches. Granted it wan't full blooded and Loughgiel finished with their reserves, but there were only 3 or 4 points in it at the end. Btw, I think Cushendall would run them close as well if they had been training as hard.

yeah but i think now they are up and running a little more and with the league campaign nearly behind them i reckon there would be around 10 points.  though i suppose the loughgiel lads with a bit more arrogance in their play could be better.  SIE i would hope to see the the full compliment of players from loughgiel with the county soon.  Is watson still on lash or anyword of him returning.  you must be pretty close to the set up over there.  maybe a previous manager / coach / selector

been following for a while now and feel i have to contribute, you can thank me later.

i say your man minder is mixing a little there.  However the sham glasses still on a little for too many lads.  Antrim would be well able to beat the shams at present.  hope though watson is nearly ready and doesn't need anymore drinking time.  could turn out to be a nasty habit.  Saffrons abu on Sunday.  we might yet get the opportunity to lower the banner
