Antrim Hurling

[btdtgtt]

Got to 2 second halfs this weekend if that counts as one game!

Loughgiel (missing a good few) kept St. John's at arms length.

St Galls were never within arms length of rossa really disappointing.

Had an idea that the trip to portaferry might be too far for the town.

I'm on hols btdtgtt.... Did we have a decent team out?? Or have Rossa improved further from last year in Div 2

Gort Na Mona beating Sarsfields in an ill tempered game was a surprise too.

Didn't hear anything from the paddies v gort?

Only arrived at half time myself MR2. At that stage it was already over. A few loose strike the galls lads understandably frustrated by the score. You'se obviously haven't prepared much but even the likes of jackson who has been hurling had little impact. Rossa seemed a bit more physical than they have been of late.

Surprised at the Rossa v St Galls result, fancied Rossa but certainly not by that margin. Excellent result for GNM indeed, St Johns going close enough to Loughgiel isn't a terrible result.

Some free for all at Gorts v Sars, expected it to be competitive, good result for Gorts needed a more capable Ref for this one.

Will the full set of hurling fixtures go ahead this Sunday with a number of fixtures down for the same time as Antrim's relegation playoff Sunday at 3pm.

Understand the chat had been if you have 15 or more available the matches are meant to go ahead. Interesting to see if that is enforced or whether clubs held to ransom again by the farce that is this relegation playoff!

Antrim match is on Saturday Glensman so need to worry although I'd be suprised if the '15 available' would be enforced.

with no promotion out of Div2 this year, a lot of the hurling won't matter a f**k, just so long as you're in the top six..

We beat St Pauls handy enough without playing well at all.

That is crap... No promotion?   why was the Gorts game so bad? Never really much bad blood there

[btdtgtt]

No promotion from division 2 is further example of the farce that is the antrim hurling leagues. They are tinkered with every single year. There's hardly much point in playing them at all since they don't even guarantee regular games.

Saw that in Irish News this morning - was up on
County website yesterday as being Sunday 3pm in Parnell! Saturday it is then!

Well at least this year we know in advance how its going to pan out. Lots of other years it's decided either half way through the league or even when its over..

What we don't know as yet is in 2016, in the 8 team leagues, is it 2 up, 2 down or some other convoluted solution.

Like I said before JC - don't worry much thinking about it - sure there will be a few changes every week on a whim. It's just a sham of a league set up here.

Having no promotion for the teams winning this years leagues is ridiculous and unfair on the league champions in divisions 2,3 and 4. The proposal at convention was that it would be 2 up 2 down after the end of 2016 season. (They will of course fiddle with that before then lol)
