Ballycastle played well. They deserved their win. cushendall haven't improved from last year. I'd fancy the town to win handy enough.good luck to them.

Cheers SIE. Ballycastle have some decent players like McAfee, Clarke, McCaughan, McGarry and McCurdy from the middle up and some hard working defenders too. Good to see Matty Donnelly back but looked like he needs a few games yet. The Dall has a good half forward line that will give our boys trouble and that boy Delargy takes some watchin too. Think mebbe the Dall just has the edge on it.

Would that Loughgiel under 21's have beat the Dall SIE?

MR2 I think the 2 best U-21 sides are in the final. To be honest Loughgiel didn't look interested on Saturday.

Was looking SIE to answer that but.........

Yeah should be a good final, any dates

[Jesusjones]

I think the final is this Saturday. No time or venue mentioned yet. I know its 2 North Antrim teams but Casement would be great for the final.

Any of those just keep it in North Antrim. Put it in Belfast and Loughgeil Dunloy Carey Armoy Cloughmills people stay at home.

Think its only fair that the u21 game is played at a north antrim venue, will attract more fans and prob suit the players more and add to a better game all round.

Looking at the article in the Irish news - why is the set up around Antrim or the players always a laughing stock for outsiders?
The whole thing is so amateur and child like.

[clootfromthe21]

That is just ludicrous! What the hell was he thinking??? Leaving aside what he actually says he did (attempting to influence the referee/Sunday Game panel/whatever), what is he doing going to the press about it?? Explain to me how going to the press about it was ever a good idea?

And even more worring is the quote "The Antrim players dont know this because they left before I got a chance to speak to any of them that day".

WTF??

[btdtgtt]

Precisely cloot - the whole thing is a shambles! Like one childs story to explain another, then another and do on.
Embarrassing all round.

[Tony Baloney]

Just after reading this. He thinks he is defending himself but what will the bigwigs think of a county manager trying to suppress this story by approaching the ref, asking the Sunday Game to "lose the video" and Sunday Game pundits not to talk about it. The mind boggles.
