disappointed after sat, we never played anywhere near what we could. missed too many frees and hit silly wides and they cost us.

lost kevin molloy and chrissy brogan to injury the night before and then lost kevin martin and oran quinn during the game to injury. that didnt help us at all. cushendall took their chances and deserved to win, best of luck to them in the final.

the ref wasnt great for either side, frees missed all over the place. i dont mind letting a game go but when a players fouled you still blow it up. added to that a pair of bungling umpires who couldnt make their minds up and also missed a point for us in the second half!

but fiar play to the dall, tho they will need to play alot better to beat lgiel.

Yeah It seems Loughgiel have hit a bit of form (They have only lost one match lol) did anyone think different? They are the team to beat and will be big favs come Sunday, they racked up a decent score and by all accounts didn't have to come out of second gear.

Cushendall will need to push on if they get a lead and not allow Loughgiel a chance to get back into the game. Easier said than done of course. I think Loughgiel could well win this one though they haven't been tested at all this year in the championship, could work for you in that you've no injuries and confidence high with big scores taken or work against you with no real pressure put on you during games leading up to final and then a massive shock from an intense charged up Dall team. I think Loughgiel have the experience behind them to get over the line.

Loughgiel have yet to blow teams away in the Antrim final could this be their year?

Sounded like quite a shock the whole thing mr. Didn't know the man but had heard of him. Rip.

Aye very sudden. had been getting better from heart surgery and total unrealted blood clot in brain caused his untimely death at 61.

Ha. They do and will. Not fr a few years i suspect though!

I hope we go on to win a hell of a lot more if truth be told, Alfie Hannaway passed away yesterday, his son Alfie junior has played most games this year and this would have been a great moment for him to watch his young lad come out on to the pitch on Sat. Alfie senior has looked after a lot of those lads and I'm sure the boys will have him in their thoughts come throw in.

The funeral will be on Wed and after that we as a club will refocus for the final

I heard 2 St Galls men got straight reds at Kilmacuds on Sat, (if true) will that mean suspensions for the final vs Cargin?

If they did get red cards then they won't be playing, Kilmacud is a proper tournament recognised by Croke, madness!!

Cargin were a great price at 4/1 early on, be a good bet now at 9/4 and out of Casement, they are a shoe in

Nonsense. Yo're strong favourites and you know it -two men down or not.

We'll have 15 men on the pitch, but possibly not the first 15 of the managers choice but sure dynasties have to fall sometime ;)

It'll hardly matter who the Ulster champions play because according to the experts on here, on other boards and elsewhere in North Antrim, there aren't any decent club teams left down there. Right?

OTB, Ballyboden, and Loughlin Gaels, Ballyhale all still there plus the Offlay lads, Birr are in the final against KK. Love this time of year, love it it even more to be involved with it ffs!!!
all great clubs. And as always the best one comes through in the end.

You'd like to think so, there hasn't been too many heavy defeats in the semi finals

2-20 1-10 as per seamroga in exile on twitter, he who tipped ballycastle
aye. Thank jaysus I'm not one of these boys that bets against their own team.  ;)

You'd been mad not to have taken that price today ffs, waiting on portumna tonight, St Thomas's Loughrea both win today in Galway Loughlin gaels and a team I think should be doing better is Ballyboden also won

Portumna won by an injury time point, sets up a semi final game with the All Ireland Champions!

Very lucky but they won't get past this St Thomas's team who I believe can kick on

Really disappointed in the performance today.complete capitulation led by a keeper who blew the gasket.Still believe we are good enough to win a championship but bottled it today. Fair play to Loughgiel they did the business

Out of interest should Watson have joined McGarry on the sidelines?throwing a players hurl into the tree?MR2 whats in the rulebook about that?lol

It's a yellow card, if he intends to throw it at a player/official red card

Predictable

I think most teams that go to City this year will come away with a predictable scoreline.

this could be 8-0

Haven't seen any of this game. Has City been very good,United very poor or a bit of both?

City have taken their goals well, Utd have been very average and lacked any threat throughout the game so far

Not the Dall on yesterday's showing.Poor fare indeed. Shams only ticking over all year.

Aye I think Loughgiel should walk it now, seeing they got over their banana skin lol ( I'd nothing to do with the outcome of the game :-X)
