Antrim Football Thread

[Milltown Row2]

Times have changed and not for the better, if you feel that you ain't getting enough attention on Twitter then maybe you don't have the resilience to play inter county

Judging by what some fellas tell me, the minors were outraged that the U16 Celtic Challenge team was mentioned on the Twitter page but no mention of their match against Armagh.

Outraged? The problem with kids today

Yes, outraged. And those "kids" are the future of our county teams.

I wouldn't bother it's like trying to talk to a brick wall. He's always right.

To be blunt this comment is an absolute load of nonsense.

Understand both sides of this argument certainly someone cant be two places at once.

However its not very hard to retweet updates from somewhere else or a tweet before the game directing people where they could receive updates.

Poor form mentioning the Celtic challenge and no mention of the footballers.

MR2 I know you don't like the SV guys but surely you can see where they are coming from...

Can someone put a 'Tweat' on about the game at Dunsilly please.

Can only imagine the outrage of not being tweeted about

Social media is grand but when kids are complaining about not being 'spoken' about on some social media platform about a heavy defeat then the place is doomed

Win lose or draw I'm sure it would be nice to gain some recognition for playing for your county, for some players it might be a big deal even just being named on a team sheet on your county twitter page. no matter of result.

Tbf there should be a good bit more coverage for the minors.

Social media is good, it promotes and informs but if you think for one second this isn't being used as a stick to beat someone then you're missing the point of the outraged post.

I seen plenty posts when I searched. There was tea sheets and updates on every score.

Which twitter account?

It has buck all to do with anything of the result and does not mean that "other parties" should be covering it but I think these young guys do deserve a bit more coverage than they have been getting. That's all I'm saying.

On the Cavan Twitter account it had everything from the start. You don't have to be genius to find it. Yeah someone could have 'retweeted' them on to the Antrim Twitter page. But is it a one man voluntarily job.

Could there not be arrangements made to get help when something can't be covered? No not from eejits who slag everything to the nth degree and then think they should be employed...

Just because some scrutiny is completely over and above doesn't mean all scrutiny is wrong. Everything is not binary.

[Would ye whist]

There in is the problem for people MR2, the Cavan Twitter account, should we co-celebrate with Cavan as they won the USFC two years ago, sure after all it's promoting Antrim gaelic games and our youth

Jesus wept. More brains in a false face.

If they were such "eejits" who slagged everything they wouldnt have the social media following they do, get the listens they do on each podcast and actually have paid patroens to listen to their opinions. So maybe do some research before spouting nonsense

[Milltown Row2]

I'm not against promoting or coverage of our games. I'm against the attacks on people doing what they can for free when multiple games are on over any given weekend in the spring/summer months by people who feel hard done by
