Antrim Hurling

[Seamroga in exile]

I wonder how many Ballyhale lads will be lining up for the county before February.

I'd say Kilkenny would dcik most teams in Feb without their Ballyhale lads, what would you think SIE?

Anyway, seems they still have to win a competition first before they get to Feb, counting chickens and all that

the point is if they're still in the running would any of their players be expected to turn up for Kilkenny? The answer is no. Irrespective of who KK plays. I think Ryan is asking too much.

There's still no word of the back room team. It's a bit of a fck up if you ask me.

You have to wonder (if true) at such a foolish ultimatum.

Was it pure niave foolishness or did he get advice to try this arm twist in an attempt to raise the issue of national league overlapping with the AICC and its impact on hurling counties like Antrim every year.

Wouldn't surprise me

Skull, I can assure you it's true. I'm not in the habit of posting lies and hearsay, as my posting history should prove.

[the waffler]

surely Ryan hasn't asked for LG players ta train with antrim they ed be dead rite not ta go as for Watson and others they dint owe antrim or anyone anything if as many people that slabber put the hours and training to get the abuse them boys get sure yas would be better off

Agreed, players while still in club championship should be brought back after their involvement in that competition is finished. I said that they could have at least went to the meeting, they could have sorted these things out then, seems strange his hard line on this after (as SIE stated in previous post) he had met with Loughgiel players

For what its worth lads, the Loughgiel players were excused from attending the meeting and training by K. Ryan himself. He met the Loughgiel lads in Loughgiel on another date.

But why let the facts get in the way of a newspaper article or rumour mongering, eh?

They were excused fom attending the first meeting. These developments occurred through last week.

3-10 to 1-7 st thomas lead with 15 to go

[saffron89]

loughrea comeback ?   3 mins left 3-11 to 2-11

[saffron89]

loughrea left it a little late ..... St Thomas first ever Galway senior title, only formed in 1968

could now go crazy

Reckon if they make it to croker on the 17th they will give it a hell of a rattle on a good pitch

though reckon the Shams might catch them, the fact they are the all ireland champions means they won't be taken as lightly as teams in the past

[saffron89]

the dinny cahill factor could have a little to play do you think SIE

[btdtgtt]

I don't think any team in an all Ireland semi final is taken lightly at club level. The gap that exists at county has never really been there at club so the souther sides give the semi their all - they know its a long way back themselves.

Saff89 is Dinny Cahill involved with st Thomas?

[saffron89]

yeah, fact they are champions just flags them a llittle more
