Antrim Hurling

SIE run for County PRO and stop your whinging

No no, you misunderstand. I was merely pointing out how bad our county site is at updating things and keeping us, the gaels of Antrim, informed. That's not 'whinging' that's pointing out the bleedin obvious.

Scared to make a comment on county site for fear of getting a cheeky or sarcastic answer,usually a patronising put down!.

[saffronog]

I'd say u would get more.sarcasm in the pound

[Buswhacker]

We're not talking about the Pound,at least it would be face to face there.

[saffronog]

Might even be more sense there, that the nature of guestbooks any shit can be spread, the infamous top 100 site in cushendall, my crticism of county site is based on point of Sie all league champions should have been congratulated with photo and summary of facts about campaign.  Especially since people paid full time in admin.  Also a message of disgrace about ref and details as simple as an investigation being lunched.

According to his interview in the Irish News on Tuesday it looks like JW is going to employ the 'running game' adopted by Cork in 2002/3.  Will it work for Antrim as it did for Cork?   

[maxpower]

that running game worked well for Cork because the Newtonshandrum lads had played it all their days, the two O'Connors, Tom Kenny and Sean Og where serious athletes.

I do wonder how long any team can sustain that type of tactic

But Jerry Wallace know alot more that I do

[saffronog]

No chance that cork team were unique in being able to follow that style.  Although some of our striking would suit that style due to many players not being able to strike that well.  Reckon very few teams could carry that style.  Fascinating to see who backroom team is, for he admitted himself isn't familiar with club scene.  Mr2 who are the st galls men we should be hoping to see with Stewart after such impressive campaign.  Saints could provide decent training facilities, no hurlers at present

Did I read somewhere that Wallace/Wallis intends to use Jordanstown and then Casement as a base for training?

[Trout]

Micky Johnson taking 21s

No he isn't.

[drici]

Micky Johnson taking 21s

No he isn't.

Well he is but it's the Armagh Under 21s.

[saffronog]

Trout & drici correct armagh seniors and obviously 21 as well.  If jerry isn't on his toes the orchard will do one on them.  Poly supposedly used for training with queens u facilities could be option.

We wouldn't have too many extras that would, in my opinion be ready for the County team. Karl will as usual and McGourty could also get a run at it. We have a few young lads but way too young for County team. Cj could make the panel if he wanted and Aidso Gallagher would be a big plus on that team if he switched form the county team. Thought he had an excellent season for the club when he played. County football commitments hampered his club hurling.

Did I just read Dinny Cahill and John Crossey would be part of Mickey Johnstone's backroom team!

Any word on Jerry Wallace backroom team?
