I think most members of clubs will have the same knowledge in fairness.

The reporting of games is fantastic

Losing your shit and throwing the toys out of the pram is not a great look

There are loads of issues going on in every county, everyone is an expert but not actually willing to put themselves forward for positions

Good article from about Piaras Donaghy from Pearses in the Irish news wrt all stars.

A good read and nice to get some recognition for Pearses, but just because all your mates voted you onto an all star team doesn't mean you are getting a phone call from Andy McEntee. Just not at that level but nice to dream.

Yous certainly have a chance CB, or is that just a bit of online gamesmanship your at giving your lads no chance?

Has Cargin ever won a match in the ulster championship? Genuine question, I don't think they have or can't remember.

Beat Carrickmore in 1999.

Jeez what a memory D I E.....yep beat Carmen in Casementvand unlucky to lose to Cross by a couple of points in the semi final at Clones.
They went on to win the All Ireland.

Had a gig chance in 2000...die to play Bellaghy in round one, but ... .......

Maybe this year with the long break Cargin will show us they care about an Ulster campaign. No easy games though.

"Show us they care" dear lord

Yes we tried to lose the games in Ulster in previous years, we will try to win this one instead

Glenties a battle hardened team who'll be hard beat. Definitely an interesting tie. Cargin knocking on the door of a win for a few years so hopefully will get over the line but I would have Glenties as favourites.

maybe incorrectly worded: perhaps it didn't appear to be their 'focus' for the year ahead.

Certainly will be tricky. Battle hardened and an established system of playing that will be tough to crack.  In saying that Cargin have appeared quite adept at adjusting their tactics and finding solutions mid game. Hard one to call as difficult to gauge the quality of Antrim club football against the rest of Ulster.   Glenties favourites but if Cargin manage the game correctly they could shade it.

Tbh Glenties look like a horrible team to play against. It'll be a battle.
