Antrim Football Thread

Ballymena a funny one. You'd not have expected Glenavy to beat them but then I don't think McAleer was playing who seems to be their main man. You'd have thought Stewart, McAleer and McVeigh would be very strong at this level and I think McCarry handy too but yeah them and Dunloy could be the two big ones.

Should play each one as a double header with an IFC game but doubt that will happen

Cargin v Lamhs will be tasty under the lights

I don't understand the slagging Bannside and PG1 are getting. He's only stating facts. The usuals are still favourites but the chasing pack have nothing to fear against any of them. PG1 might not win a final but they're well improved and it would hardly be a massive shock if they won the whole thing. There is no dominate team that is hammering everyone like the great St Galls team used to do. I wouldn't be surprised if LD win it either.

That's the page I'm on JS. Let every club worry about themselves. Go enjoy the most open championship in years.

Or the big two have been stumbling along waiting for the serious stuff to start! Who knows!!

Could happen...and we will be first to acknowledge. No one saying they aren't still at the top table.

As for you sneaky so and sos JS. What long grass might you boys have been lying in all year... arriving home for when it matters..thinking no one has noticed...lol.

I think it's called deflection men if we are talking about PG1 we are not talking about Kickhams

Kickham's are holding fast......their best is yet to come.....

What game was it? St John's v Creggan?

Also credit where it's due, I thought the officiating at the game I watched on Sunday was very good. Allowed an intense, physical contest without letting things get out of control. Well managed

Terrible year for a number of reasons but few men back now and hoping to try and get a bit of form going but hard to see it at this stage of the year. We need to keep the season going as long as possible to try and get boys fit and up and running!

Sad as it is JS having been watching clips of the championship in the states and young AL starred, yet he couldn't make the team with last two county managers! Maybe Mc Entee will give him the opportunity, talent like that shouldn't be on the bench!
