They probably should do but we prefer complete bluffers in Antrim.

And who is this a dig at?

Wallis, Sambo........you decide.

Bluffer?? Wind your neck in. The former made a mess of things however how much grief has Dick O'Kane got over him walking away? Sambo gets beaten with the same stick over and over again. And hopefully he only keeps on one job next year- managing our u12s

Last year our minors walked Ulster. This year's team was backboned by many of the same players that backboned last year's team. This year's team was supposedly better than last year's team (which is why Sambo took it but wouldn't touch it last year). Bate by Down.

Pathetic.

You seem the pathetic one with your constant belittling of someone who I would be sure has given Antrim far more service than yourself.

Supposedly better doesn't cut it. The big players were poor and believed too much in their own hype. This year, several players wouldn't train, refused to wear certain numbers, slept in for Ulster Finals. Players needed to take a good look at themselves and I include some of our own who wouldn't go. Down were a good team and I'd say they never get the credit they deserved.

Are we allowed to have a county team without sambo involved in some way colonel?

Certainly...... but have we men beating down the door to be involved?

County seeking internal applications for both managerial positions with the holders of both positions being considered

If Baker wants the football job I can't see it being changed. For Hurling- god knows

Why do Ballycastle get into the top tier. Sure St Johns beat them the other day! 

Yeah considering Doot got injured early on Saturday and Gallagher came on and played a blinder it's a huge blow. Doubt Kelly will be back so what do we have left for midfield? Gallagher supposed to be our captain too, bravo

I wouldn't go into criticising players decisions without knowing the background behind it, it may not be straight forward. And with the kind of fella that Aodhan is I wouldn't be judging his character one bit

Not a good start for Saturday- Very strange

Minor match confirmed for Saturday at 1pm at Casment

Thankfully posts from Shara Fuggers have been removed. Slanderous comments and not right.

On the games yesterday- Minor game was very even. How the Down FF never got a couple of goals I do not know. Big handful of a player. As stated before, Antrim were lucky that young McGoldrick was on form with the frees. Both teams got goals that were very lucky with both keepers likely to have only seen the ball as it went past the last defender. I think a draw was the right result, can't see Antrim being as poor this week. Hoping it will be before the Galway game.

For the senior game, was dead rubber right after Carsons goal. I thought Shane was fantastic, covered serious ground and has been the only midfielder Antrim have had in the last while who is taking a good luck at where he is playing the ball to. Some of his passing was great. Derry lost the discipline and got frustrated I think. Antrim should have had about 5 more goals, with the Derry keeper having a great game

How did the feis go?

As far as the senior hurling was concerned it was a tame enough affair with no real bite to it. some decent passages of play but completely lacking in atmosphere and any sense of occasion. Has the feis competition been devalued by last years debacle??
I havent watched any senior camogie in a while but the ladies certainly didnt hold back, some good players on show.
McMullan cup final, the worst I can remember, completely dominated by young McN...some player though.

The senior game wasn't too bad I thought. Both teams missing players (Ballycastle probably more disadvantaged because of the strength of their squad doesn't allow them to keep to the same level- Ronan Donnelly making a comeback for example!). Loughgiel always looked like they were going to win but it wasn't overly comfortable. Strange start with EMcC handpassing the ball over the bar which I am sure is illegal? MIBAG to confirm this! Wasn't an awful lot of bite to the game either.

As regards to the McMullan Cup, we have a strong team, which is lead by Christy McNaughton who as Last Man said is some player. The Cushendun v Glenravel game was quite entertaining which was a good physical battle to say the least!

Just wondering who awarded it to him.

The Irish News at the start of this century

Anyone read Sambo's piece in the Antrim Post yesterday?

Did he use crayons to write it?

Do you not mean "Ulster's hurler of the century" colonel?

I hear the Dall fellas that were there previously all showed up and that everyone put on a good session.

Yes he was awarded Ulster Hurler of the Century, issue with that?

Maybe turn up was not the right term. The Cushendall players said they did not feel comfortable walking into a changing room less than two weeks before the game when players who had been there all year wouldn't be that overly pleased to see them. I don't think they would have anything against JN as they wouldn't know him at all.

Cant find it online - care to give us a synopsis?

He said that he was sorry the JW experiment as manager hasn't worked. Like Dick he wasn't valued and that he didn't like the way JW didn't stand up for Hippy (never mentioned the RTE stuff) and wishes Jim Nelson and Jerry all the best
