Antrim Football Thread

[InnocentByStander]

Christ almighty, I didn't think he was that bad to be honest, perhaps he has really done something bad on you personally, I know in the past he had a run in or two with Cargin perhps that is clouding your judgment, anyway cold flannel and lay down in a darken room

I would question Tumelty and McCotter, I don't think they are there on merit, however on being 'pals' with the the decision makers

As for McDermott, I haven't seen enough of him, however did watch him in the Cargin v Rossa game and thought he didn't do too bad. He must really have pissed on your chips going by your historic posts as it seems you loose sleep thinking about him

I'd question 2 of them to be honest

I know for a fact Scremer didn't turn down a game do you know if the other's did

As for Burns he is as much of a Belfast man as any up there #click

i'm Interested, which 2?

you think Mcdermott is capable of a senior final?

McDermott is renowned worst ref in the county. He isn't even bad. The word bad to compliments his refereeing too much, i would lean more towards totally rancid. He also treats the players with zero respect and always trys his best to have his say on any game I've watched him. You must have seen him enough to put his name forward to a senior final. He is not capable to ref games at a senior level never mind a senior final, maybe u15 level if he's lucky but u13 is his standard, even saying that puts some disrespect on u13 football.

I think the selection on refs for the final is fair don't really think it matters where they come from to be honest I've seen enough of tumelty and collie this year to definitely say they are there "on merit" for McCotter on the other hand i have not seen much of.

Truth hurts

Mr McDermott is a a good friend of the SV voice lads. I see they had their all stars at the weekend. Must of been good attenders at the ladies games all year or did they pick them going by the finals?

You can see from that list they weren't paying too much attention lol One of the Moneyglass players is just back from a long term injury and has hardly played all year

[imtommygunn]

In their defense they have been putting up scores for matches I can find nowhere else. However they do seem to revert to fairly venomous personal attacks a bit too which they should stop if they went to be taken seriously. If they could be steered in the right direction with some of their comms maybe they'd get buy in - there's definitely a gap for some of it.

[paddyjohn]

No doubt about it but they need to have a word with themselves. Some of it is embarrassing.

What's the more secretive organisation?

The illuminati or the inner circle of Antrim referee's     

Would ye wisht is a tan foil hatter I think or maybe he is a sulking ref...

[Would ye whist]

Not for all the tea in China would I be a ref to leave myself open to the personal attacks that are lauded on here and the pitch, however, what I am interested in is the promotion of the games in Antrim, my own club and SW Antrim. That promotion includes the attraction of the best referees which we are struggling to do and will continue to struggle to when they are treated as they are by the inner circle, as for the inner circle what I have been told by a couple of SW refs and committee members:

Darren McKeown
Brendan Toland
Anthony McKeague
Kevin Parke
Colm McDonald
Kevin Parke
Mark O'Neill

It's an open secret

You seem to be in regular contact with refs, for someone who isn't one.

Suppose these men meet once a month at the top of Cavehill wear big hoods and make sacrificial offerings...

[Would ye whist]

Go to enough matches, underage blitzes etc you run into these men, however suppose that's difficult for you to do from your box room

Aye because its totally normal as an spectator of a match to stand at the gate of the field and wait to talk to the refs about the "inner circle" of Antrim refs.

I attended alot of football not just in my own county but the difference between me and you is I don't have 2 cards and a whistle while I'm at these matches.

The refs you named who were awarded finals not on merit but due to their dealing with the "inner circle" have not been named, have they not committed their blood sacrifice yet to be full members?

Getting into the WTF now...

Little bit embarrassing now, I mean seriously?

Good title for a book

[imtommygunn]

Is there a secret handshake MR?

Is there a secret handshake MR?

You'll have to read my book to find out

Getting ridiculous the attitude of some so called GAA people toward volunteers.
