You would think they beat a good team with the plaudits he is getting,I  hope he gets brought back to earth tomorrow night ☺️

[5 Sams]

Whats on tomorrow night?

[Targetman]

Apparently the ref didn't turn up to the div 2 top of the table match Carryduff v Saval, anyone confirm this?

[Leftmidfield]

Any scores from tonight's games ? CPN beat The Stone by a point

[Smurfy123]

The Carryduff and Saval game was not played as they forgot to appoint a referee for the game.What other county would this happen in?Both team were on the pitch ready to go.

[Hoes before bros]

Armagh smurfy. Same thing happened tonight in the Dromintee game. 2 teams. No ref

[5 Sams]

Harps drew with Burren. 8 each. Poor game. We were comfortable all night but missed goal opportunities in the first half and wayward shooting cost us in the 2nd half. Should have beaten them comfortably. Hard to believe how poor Burren are. Speaking to a few of their stalwarts in the club afterwards and they are not happy.

[/quote. Unbelievable that this could happen, no wait a minute no it's not incompetence at its best, some result for Drumaness winning away to Rostrevor, it takes them level on points with Annaclone!!

[Smurfy123]

Maybe clownjim can give us some information on that 5 sams???
Burren men not happy?
It transpires that they forgot to appoint a referee for the top of the table clash in division 2!!
Big shock in Rostrevor thought that would have been a trimming match.

Bad result for the Stone considering CPN Had to play a lot of reserves tonight

[Ed Hardy]

Any injury updates for the game next week? Has Ryan Johnson any chance of making the game? N McParland maybe in with a shout of playing in mf?

[Targetman]

I hope Johnston's fit to play and would go with Mc Parland, has a bit of aggression that will definitely be required on Sunday, if not at midfield then centre half back, we are far too open down the middle,

[Hedgehunter]

I wonder will the PR team be out in force this week or will they revert to type and we hear nothing....

[Mourne Rover]

Niall McParland is a fine player, who has been excellent for Glenn and looked the part for St Mary's in 2016. However, he has been unlucky with injuries at county level since he had to be replaced early on against Mayo at Croke Park in the 2012 AI quarter final.  Having barely featured for Down over the last five years, he would need to be flying in training if he is to start on Sunday. He still has the ability to make an impact at half back or midfield, especially if as suspected we have a few people struggling for fitness.
