Antrim Football Thread

[Milltown Row2]

Liam Stewart passed away yesterday evening, a person with great vision who along with others brought about some golden era's within the club, chairman during the Ulster club winning team of the 80's through to bringing about the golden generation that went on to win the All Ireland.

As chairman of the club during the troubles we always had a safe place to be, running many summer clubs and trips up the north coast, I'm sure as kids we tested his patience to the full 

Was a recipient of the Presidents award I believe

Father of Karl Stewart who played with distinction for both club and county.

On a personal note he was Mr St Galls and will be missed by many from within and outside of the club

An absolute Gent

Did I hear he played in and won an Ulster Minor Football and Hurling title with Antrim in the same year

RIP

Simple question to answer EOC. If Antrim hadn't won today there would have been a fair few queuing up to say we are no better off. But now most will agree (concede even) that we are. A 19 point turnaround in a year is not too shabby.

Enjoy the occasion, the pride that took a hammering this time last year has been restored.

Now we can move on....

A good win, we have rightly took it seriously this year as this is Antrims level.Disappointed we had no representation on the starting team to be honest. I'd say the men we have there maybe won't be there much longer.

Who would you have started and where?

Really.... Your surprised by someone asking how no player from the best club side in Antrim for the last 10 years started

No dispute on Cargin being the top side for the last 10 years

Feel free to answer the question. Answer should include only those that have currently made themselves available and are fit for selection.

Liam was a good friend for many years, and manys a disagreement did not hinder such.

May his good soul Rest in Peace.

Indeed......

A true gentleman and gael, rest in peace Liam. Would I be right in saying he was from Derry City originally?

Mr St Galls as good a description as any.

How many games are played in the Antrim senior league?

[Hoof Hearted]

How many games are played in the Antrim senior league?

In division 1 there are 12 games before the split, then another 5 or 6, depending on whether your in top or bottom half
Maybe someone else can clarify if its top 6 bottom 7 or vice versa

[ck]

Yes top 6 I believe. Bottom 7 of which 2 go down.

Lads, myself and a few like-minded saffron folk had a discussion, we got onto the topic of the 'look good, feel good, play good.' theory.

Opinions on the saffron outfit changing the shorts to mainly saffron with white stripes, instead of white shorts with saffron stripes? Was told there was tension in camp due to this years gear, things said such as 'the training tops are drowning us' or 'how can u call these skinny bottoms?' and its understood players aren't happy with how they look on the pitch in compared to your Derrys or Tyrones.

Is this an issue that needs dealt with? or typical modern day footballer bulls***
