Antrim Hurling

[davincicode]

Its been very quiet in Loughguile, its a tough call altough i feel Dunloy will just edge it, depends on Connor Cunning i think, if he gets into his stride and distribution is good, then the war is over, its vital for dunloy i think! One mistake on either side could cost the game. I see Ray Matthews is in the middle, good lad should keep it tight, and both teams respect him, my only concern which some lads have recently said that his fitness may be in question, hopefully this is BS and he lets the game grow, he wont take any verbals from either side, best man for the job.

So what are the predictions lads?

[milltown row]

no better man in the middle, was Ray not fit? oh when was he ever fit stayed in nets for most of his years

[davincicode]

Heard that he did,nt look as sharp as he used to, some boys said that he struggled at the Gortsv TNN game put some beef on, was he a keeper in his playing career MR?

[theskull1]

Was in goal for Rossa for years. Decent netminder in his day was Ray

[Minder]

Ray was quite prone to stopping the close range blockbuster but letting one go through his legs from 80 yards.

Let he who is without sin .........

St Johns must have gotten a handfull, 6 or 7 of their under 14's were running about the train to belfast playing hide and go seek!

[the colonel]

st johns as a dual club may have swapped football tickets for hurling tickets or else have alot of contacts in other places.

glenariffe always seem to have a good contingent going down as well. we also has a good few players on the county panel so this helped as well.

[milltown row]

we used to get a lot of tickets, our Sec. was going to Derry and Donegal for years and had great contacts. but this year we had to give the Sponsors some, which is fair enough. the usual suspects though get them every year. 6 Johnnies men behind me on the train and a load up in the first class part. then they had a crowd down at the sevens.

we are all heading down for the Sevens next week. staying over for the football. wont hunt for a ticket though. all the county boys should have tickets from county even the St Galls 4
