We could still have a preliminary quarter final if we're second I think?

It was good to see Johnston in the subs today. Loughran was the last day but not today I notice for whatever reason. Hopefully those two can make some kind of impact over the rest of the competition - I think they would add a lot to our team.

That was a good win. Some may say it's only Wexford or it's a division four team but before mcentee came in these are the kind of games we would have lost.

Yes - of course, you are right we could still finish second and have a preliminary. Does finishing second equal a home venue for prelim? Can't recall. But well done to the squad, that's a strong away win today.

Commentator was very impressed with Antrim, but we missed two easy goal chances that would have put the game to bed much earlier.

Was very impressed with Sligo when they beat us quite easily in the league. They put 16 points on Tipp yesterday,but at least we go into the game knowing we are still in the competition.

Battle of the McEntee's.

Sligo look very good. I think they'll maybe be a bit ahead of us but hopefully if we start getting a few players back we can make a game of it.

Sligo, Down and Kildare seem teams to beat. Fermanagh doing well too but I think if we played them we'd have a very good chance. I'd be happier seeing the likes of Johnston and Loughran back too. I suspect Healy is gone for the season. I dunno if McEnhill isn't fit or has just been dropped. McCann (Aghagallon) missed a lot of football so every game getting him sharper too.

7.30pm @ Dunsilly....no fancy draw or dinner in the Ramanda, tonight, most likely a balls up at some stage!

What do we think is a likely neutral venue for match v Sligo? Omagh looks to be about equidistant...wouldn't be too bad a choice for supporters to get to. Armagh maybe asking for a bit much, certainly hope its not Clones.

Sligo match fixed for Breffini Park, disappointing tbh. And it's a 4pm throw in on the Sunday. 90 mins from Sligo, 2 hours on some bad roads from Belfast, obvs more from south west. Thats an unfair venue I think
