Glad to see John O Hare on the team

Is tickets hard to come by for tipp v Limerick

I was at the game yesterday and i took a guess that is what the Kilkoo player said to Aron Cunningham,it was wrong but as Charlie Tully said you cant take the whole Kilkoo community for a very stupid incident on a football field.He tried to wind Cunningham up to try and take his mind off the game I would say that he regretted it straight after the game Crossmaglen I don't think will persue the issue but the press will add fuel to the fire

I have to say well done to warrenpoint and Kilcoo for getting to the Ulster Final ,but in my opinion I think their opposition will just be too strong for them on the day

its ok people ,Down v St Galls at 7.30

does anyone know if Down are playing a friendly in Newry tonight

Drumgath 3-11 0-7 Teconnaght

Drumgath started this game off well by racing into a good lead with some good scores and a pile driver from M.Quinn for the goal.But Drumgath knew that Ardglass would come back at them with what we will just call some heavy tackling  .,and good balls into M.Magee who was putting away some chances but S.Parsons was slowly but surly coming to terms with the county man denying him on a number of occasions .Ardglass started off the second half stronger,and Drumgath were on the back foot with some dodgy ref decisions,but it was time for the Drumgath men to stand up and stand up they did with the fight being led in the middle of the field by Jack Lynch,who continued to catch some good ball in the middle off the field and burst through and was time and time again to be hacked down,at one stage his jersey was pull right over the top of his head and the ref going to his book only when Ardglass gave him bad manners no word of booking any off their players for countless persistant bad tackling ,well we did persued him when an Ardglass player hauled down R.Hillen the two of them fell and then when the Ardglass player got back up, he got back up he walked right across his back,if your reading this ref that is a straight red.

S.Parsons now had the better of Magee and their game plan was all but over,but Drumgath had to be on their toes as the Ardglass forwards were making a few good runs through with the result being a few scores.The Drumgath defence tighten up and with B.strain,N.Fitzpatrick,B.Hynes,S.Parsons,C.Hynes all doing well in the Drumgath back line and with J.Lynch now catching everything in the middle of the field Drumgath were weathering the Ardglass storm.It was now that Drumgath needed scores and they were few and far between ,Jack Lynch sent a good ball into the Drumgath forwards and like so many times before E.McConville was brought to ground and the resultant free was taken by McConville who sent over the free to keep Drumgath in touch ,the sides were now level and this match could have gone any way.From a kickout a long ball was sent down the field an Ardglass man was fouled round their 45 a quick free was sent in and the forward was judged to have been pulled back a penalty was awarded,but as ever the safe hands of Bernard Connell came to the rescue of Drumgath with a fantastic save and the Drumgath backs carried the rebound out and up the field to M.Connelly who played solidly through out he was fouled and from about 35 meters out and 10 meters from the side line Mark scored a fantastic free kick from the ground(county standard),this proved to be the winning score to keep Drumgath's intrest in the run in for the third division alive

Good win for Drumgath on Saturday a further report will follow ,have to go to work

I think lads ,that everybody here is just about touching on valid points ,there is good and bad in the way that James was appointed.For a man off Peter Mcgath's standing to be treated the way he was is just not accepttable.The county board have to look at the way people are treated,people give their time up and when they are finished with them they are treated like dirt and for got about.I know for a fact that when minors are trying to make a team and they dont make the cut they find out in the papers or some of their team mates tell them,even in the later stages of selection .The county board have to put a policy in place that people at least deserve a phone call on all occasions

Outstanding Fixtures: Ardglass v Drumgath, St Pauls v Glenn

* Aghaderg didnt field against Drumgath on Friday night so Drumgath got the two points.

Drumgath did not get the points for this game as it was not supposed to be played for a couple of weeks but Aghaderg agreed to play it but then had to put it off again because of some internal problem with their football team.So the table should look as it was before the two points were put on to Drumgath total

lads,can anyone point me in the right direction ,Im looking for some coaching ideas I am doing our U14 at the minute but want to do a bot of stuff for adults.I have Peter Canavan first video ,did he ever do any more.Anything will be a help.

Holy Shit!! Never seen that coming. Loughisland obviously coming good. Big team too.

Loughinisland are a team that have not been together right up until the championship for the last few years due to injury and player,s on county duty,but this year they have all their players and they will be hard to beat,they will push whoever they get in the  final all the way
