watched the semi's tonight... love marty's commentating

anyway so far a lot of ballads, no nut jobs yet... (please refrain)..

think niamh will get into final no bother..

finland didn't get through which seemed to be a shocker since its hosted in norway..

maybe it is returning to the good oul days... loved the eurovision in the late 80's / 90's

caught maybe 4 or 5 songs and Finlands was one of them. surprised they didn't get in (my music taste is crap )

[Ballycastle last night leaving them adrift at the bottom of the league]

We finally got our first win last night against our nearest and dearest neighbours Ballycran.

2-17 to 2-10 it ended up in what was a keanly contested game if lacking a bit of quality at times. Big Magic was unworkable with Ballycran struggling to get him stopped. He's now starting to find his team mates with passes which in the longer term will give himself more room to operate. A few of our minors are starting to find their feet at this level so its not all doom and gloom however once we lose two or three to injury and the likes we're very weak from the bench, Ballycran ditto.

Have to say Tommy McIntyre did a good job and even though there was a bit of skulduggery going on the odd time, had it under control.

That was a bad result for Ballycastle last night leaving them adrift at the bottom of the league. We know Ballycran and Ballygalget are near neighbours and matches are generally tight between them but going on the form book i would have fancied Ballycran. Ballycastle will have to get the results now rather than rely on other teams staying down there with them.

Johnneycool whats the story with Big Magic? The papers have been saying recently that he was unavailable for Down as he is going to the States but he has been playing away for the club obviously. Im sure Down could have done with him last weekend against Westmeath.

i wouldn't worry Fairhead, leagues will surely change if that was to happen. after all it was Ballycastle that offered the current format which St Johns (now a division two team) backed. hopefully a bit of Karma will head towards the 'towns' way

maybe get a wee bit closer on that bitch.

i think we have nothing to lose and the boys feel better playing Offaly in Parnell than Croke. tight pitch and should suit us

Two mcgourty lads out on the sat night in the dock area.  Why did baker play them?

they were working on the boats otbar. thats what ya do at the docks. some of the other lads that played on Sundy should have been workng at the docks!!

placed a bet on Paraguay to win their group!!!!

getting tanked by a shite Irish team. heres a tip, if i'm betting bet against me!!

thats all you can do as a referee, you see it you call it. Pat does not give a hoot who wins

they are there we just need to instill some work ethic and belief. at the minute i feel 60 percent of the squad don't give a hoot!!

your a long time not playing hurling and by fook i'm holding on by my finger tips as i love the sport, these guys have the best set up Antrims ever had in terms of being looked after. and what happens?? they cant be bothered.

if you feel that the trainings too hard and the weekends away playing challenge match and league games is too much then step away.

It's very simple. Antrim's preparations have been shite and i think that will reflect in the scoreline this Sunday. if we don't improve then we may even get caught out in Ulster.

I'll be there in Parnell Park cheering the lads on, as I've done for many games but i can't see us getting over the line against a beatable Offaly team. we had 18 away on a bonding trip the other week!! whats that say about players attitudes towards playing for their county.

As for Watson he is a quality player and so is Shane. both have there own strong points, if your looking a player with serious pace then Shane has it over Watson(though Watson is fast when on the ball). if your looking a player who can get 2-14 (albeit a lot from frees) in a game then Watson is your man.


who's the best? well that depends on what you like or want.

 marriages fail because partners don't work at it. the hardest job in life is to keep it.

because people are fed a image of happiness doesn't mean that its whats happening.

him being led by a younger model may have a lot more to do with their own strained relationship

[a chance encounter in a Celtic Park pisser (i kid you not)]

McGourty walked away from Antrim a couple of years ago - a chance encounter in a Celtic Park pisser (i kid you not) got him re-instated...

What's the craic with this NBA? Did they just shake hands on it or what? 

...comes on in the 2nd half today, and makes no real impact...what signal does that send to all those player swho have been training their holes off all year, and not spitting the dummy out once...Bradley let himself down badly today ...sorry about the typos

Huh? OK, so you hate KMcG, that's obvious, but you just make yourself look ridiculous with that statement. Were you at the match? He broke a couple of balls from both Hub and Big Sean he had no right to get to and generally added a buzz of meaningful intent and effort which Antrim had been badly lacking. He definitely contributed greatly to Antrim's "revival" in my opinion.

forget what he's saying, sure they were meant to win the campionship last year, couldn't win their semi when expected. expect the same this year. more bullshite

you can take the.......

[Falls Road people]

walked past Rossa today Hardstation with my wee bro and they had a barbecue blazing away. seemed good craic. our club was grand out on the balcony with plenty of magners. bit of banter and the usual craic. enjoyed a home game for a change.

£13 quid in so me and wee mackers said look heres £20 will that do? no problem

Good to know that when I pay the full entry fee that I'm subsidizing the Falls Road people 

cheers

and the high lites were sh1t too

didnt show stevies first point or the square ball

i was standing behind the goal and it was a square ball all day, called it as the ball hung in the air.

Antrim need to start well, chasing a game is hard and we are not good at it. Tyrone maybe thought this was in the bag and played below par after their second point on the re-start.

or! Antrim started to believe and applied pressure and Tyrone came up short with answers to stop us!!

either way i was happy with the second half response and disappointed with the fact we could have played better.
