Antrim Hurling

[pdiddy]

Don't know the full story, booking the weekend wasn't a mistake this was the only weekend that it could happen and it's not often you get the chance to go down and play a team like de la salle.

And IF we didn't inform the CCC then that has been human error and in a amateur organisation mistakes happen.

Disappointing the game couldn't be played Sunday, ends Dunloys interest in the league title and is somewhat unfair on St Johns and ballycran.

Who do dunloy have to blame in all this they screwed up twice in booking the training weekend then not informing the county

I don't think Dunloy will be too concerned if they loose the 2 points.  What's another league title against a bonding weekend and challenge game against quality opposition in the lead up to the business end of the season? While it would be nice to win I don't think Dunloy, Loughgiel or Cushendall are overly bothered about the league. The down side from the overall league perspective is how it will effect the relegation battle !!!

Heard that St. Enda's beat Loughgiel in the N. Antrim U14 Final in Dunloy over the weekend.  Great result for the club and validates their decision to pull out of S. Belfast competitions and into N. Antrim.  With their footballers winning plenty in SW competitions they must find a way to bring all this talent through to Senior level.

Great for St Endas but, and I've already said this to Last man, if their seniors continue to play in div 4 then will not be competitive when those kids come through. The current team needs to get up to div 2 in the next 4 years

. Totally agree MR, we have kids being coached the skills and how the game should be played and seniors who were only ever coached the skills and expected to develop a hurling brain by osmosis or something. Its a massive problem for us but one I'm convinced we will overcome.

Who was the referee of that u14 match?     

[Last Man]

Are you suggesting a conspiracy between us and a Dunloy referee Seamroga??

Never would I suggest such a thing!

Ballycran vs Loughgiel 17/8/11

Venue?

I don't know yet. I'd think probably Belfast somewhere.

Rumour has it in Corrigan park.

St Pauls, Shaws Rd.  7pm

Just read on the Cushendall website that a ban on playing home games has been imposed on them for what happened at the Ballycastle minor game. I assume Ballycastle has got the same punishment?

[imtommygunn]

Was the Ballycastle/Cushendall game at a neutral venue?

[Jesusjones]

The Ballycastle V Cushendall game was in Ballycastle. Totally over the top punishment.

[NAG1]

So what punishment you suggest JJ

[Milltown Row2]

Seems to be the norm of late. We also have a ban, championship games are played away from home anyway.

[Megaman]

its does seem to be the norm at the minute, but im sure there are other ways.

15+ Rossa kids who im sure where looking forward to a game in Cushendall last night have also been punished now!!!!!!!!

[Milltown Row2]

We had two games fixed at the pitch one night that meant 60 plus hurling players missed out, that was down to a football match played Against Cargin!!!
