Getting a bit personal here lads.

We could all throw stones at other clubs and their players but let's not.

Lads naming people who give up a large chunk of their life to represent antim doesnt sit well with me. Andy picks his squad, his 15 and makes changes in the game, if a player in your opinion is below par, that is not their fault. Naming them will also not help. Especially young lads.

Why dont we enter Cargin in the TC next year and get a trophy back up the road??

Any football teams in North Antrim......Ballycastle..??

Fail to see how commenting on team selection is getting personal, and pointing out a player wouldnt make a strong club team is not an insult its a way of emphasising the point

Club and county are very different beasts. Listen to Sean quigley on that Gaa social about it. It can be about mindsets, athleticism, ability to play in specific systems etc. Club setups are vastly different. Better footballers may not be as adaptable to specific setups etc.

As if anyone on this thread has much to crow about.  Antrim have been rubbish for decades. Underage squads have been rubbish for decades.  Club teams with the exception of St Galls have achieved nothing outside the county.  Men pointing out who they nearly beat fs.  You have to laugh. 
A wee bit of humility would go a long way. If a county manager sees something in a player then let them give it a go, the road is hardly littered with previous shining examples of success.

NorthAntrim

We've also won our last two championship games. Showing signs of improvement. Positivity!
