Word on the street is they have loads of big injuries to key men
Unfortunately looks like its not going to be much of a game after all

The county missing a good opportunity to increase gate recites this weekend with the timing of Cargin/Rossa and Creggan/Johnnies games .I'm sure alot of us country folk would have went to both games to cheer our parish friends  on if there wasn't such a big gap between games.

That's where live streaming comes in. It makes county good money over the course of a championship season.

A few tasty contests ahead this weekend, some clubs in last chance saloon, others not mathematically safe.

The streaming doesent even come close, in my opinion & does the guts of any income not go to Jerome Quinn?

As far as I know county did well out of it financially last year.

On a positive note it's great to hear about the excellent work that has gone into setting up a sixteen school competition for years 8 and 10 for secondary or grammar schools in county Antrim.

This is a fantastic initiative delivered with the energy and vision of coaching and games development officer Paddy Kelly. Will hopefully pave the way for exciting added value aspects relating to additional coaching resources being made available somewhere in the mix, supported by county or province, as advocated here earlier this year.

The launch is 7th September at St Mary's training College.

The streaming would need to improve.

Funny we were just saying the same when coming home from watching St Galls v Creggan a couple of week ago, put the John's v LD game on closer to it you would have had a bumper crowd

Aghagallon, Tir Na Nog and Gort Na Mona all in a 3 team group in the senior championship. Only noticed today after seeing it laid out in tables in todays Irish News. The bottom 3 teams in the league, whereas Creggan or St Johns will go out tomorrow. Something badly wrong with that draw.

Ah.....luck of the draw ...is a random outcome of a draw

Arguably 7 of the top 8 teams this year are on the same side of the draw. Portglenone being the other one.
