Antrim Hurling

[thedog 83]

Liam has undoubted ability, and is on his day is one of the best forwards in Ulster.

If he transfers to another intercounty team, then this means he has to have a permanent address in that county and also needs to transfer to a club in that county.

Also if i'm not mistaken, he also needs to play a championship match for his club in his adopted county before he can hurl intercounty.

I can't see this happening, so i'd Liam will be hurling for Loughgiel come September.

So basically this is a PR exercise.

Dublin are interested alright. Up to winker.

So who is picking the Antrim panel for Ryan, McManus I take it ?

Is he working in Dublin or are they just gonna pay him a wagemileage?

Liam Watson can't play for Antrim because Neil mc manus wants to be the only show in town - and Kevin Ryan permits this.

Watson forces the issue a bit more with a link to Dublin (real or not).

All oh so very soccer might I suggest?

Funny how more successful counties manage without these soap operas.

[paddyjohn]

Do you have any substance to prove this theory about Neil McManus?

Maybe the panel don't want Watson on board.

It's unreal
This actually isn't funny. I really worry for  the said player, he seems to live his life like he's in a movie or something and when the camera isn't rolling there's attention withdrawal symptoms. People playing along are not helping. I kinda feel sorry for him and think other contributors should know better

County Board Statement: No approach made to Liam Watson   20/02/2014

In light of growing speculation the Dublin County Board wishes to state that neither the Dublin senior hurling management nor the Dublin County Board have made any approaches to Loughiel hurler, Liam Watson, with regard to him transferring his county or club allegiances.

They're hardly likely to come out and say they phoned up, now are they? The phone call was made. But sure, I'm glad. He'll be up here hurling away for us. Good stuff.

They also spelt Loughgiel wrong again. Inexcusable!

And in regards to the ethics of any such arrangements, this is good stuff?
