Antrim Football Thread

I see Donegal are scheduling an under-21 football championship.........?

[bannside]

Boylesports see it vastly different Lar.

1/12 Glen 14/1 Cargin 7/1

Go fill your boots at Cargin plus 7 points of a start at evens.

Did see the Boylesport rep peeping over the hedge on Friday evening watching our lads training....

Was the same idiot who had Cargin at 1/4 to beat Aghagallon and 1/3 PG1 to beat the St Mary's men....

Pp odds

Glen 1/12
Draw 16/1

Cargin +7 10/11 looks a safe bet to me.

Have been watching our lads training last week and indeed they look ready for action....
Remember when Cargin met up with Cross at Clones in 1999 and despite going as 8/1 underdogs the Armagh men needed a late, late Jim Mc Conville goal to enable them to move onwards and  claim the Aĺl  Ireland club title..

Messer Boyle and Power despite their expertise in Gaelic games way well be found wanting...

The odds are wild - I think it will be a close game. Be interesting to see how Glen react to being such overwhelming favorites. Everyone under the sun been speaking about Kilcoo -v-Glen final

Aye, those pesky bookies are going out of business....

Not too many teams win by 7!

Backed the draw in the last game, as did a few round me at Corrigan

Glen are favourites and rightly so but anything can happen, and if they win by two points and go on to win an All Ireland it's like winning an All Ireland 

[country bumpkin]

Do not see many bookies on a bike but sometimes there are opportunities..

Backed Aghagallon to win Antrim to win championship at semi final stage at 10/1 and laid it off at the final stage at 5/1...5 points no risk profit.....

Bad backed Cargin to win earlier 5/2...

Who got the aldegrove job? creggan guy?

Yeah that's what I heard

It's not personal. A derry team should be strong favourite over an antrim team all day long. That's just how it goes.

I do think Glen are possibly a bit over rated mind you. I was a bit disappointed with them against Errigal. However that said they should still be strong favourites for this game. The odds maybe a wee bit long mind you.

So logic would dictate Slaughtneil will start as strong favourites over Dunloy...?
Glen are a good side but their experience on the Ulster trail and indeed in club championship is not anything to shout about..

[imtommygunn]

I agree Glen are potentially a bit overrated too considering what they have done. If they were to go on I'd hope they win it. The odds do seem a bit much but how often are bookies wrong too. If Cargin beat Glen it's a major upset - there's no denying that.

Slaughtneil and the hurling is a different kettle of fish entirely and they will be favourites and rightly so.

Slaughtneill are favourites, would you have Dunloy favourites?

[NAG1]

SN would be obvious favourites in the hurling.

I'm not seeing where the confidence around Cargin is coming from. Glen just came out on top in one of the best games of club football in recent times. I think the spread betting could be slightly generous there at 7 but I suppose will depend on conditions on the day as well.

[imtommygunn]

Yeah I mean Glen should be strong favourites but they just feel maybe a wee bit too strong. It's no slight on anyone.
