[EOC1923]

It does look like a dig EOC, considering a few off your clubmen walkedoff the panel to concentrate on the push for a league,I just wish our men would've walked off it,and we might not be holding the league up ATM and basically relagated, congratulations to casements,

No definitely not a dig, thought I explained it well, not true about our lads leaving either for that reason. Sean in particular left as he was getting no minutes at all. Jamie was injured, and honestly don't know why Pat left it. Our boys go to win every game, sometimes it happens sometimes it doesn't.
Looking forward to the rest of the season now and the championship.

Cargin 5/2
Creggan 10/3
Portglenone 6/1
Lamh Dhearg 13/2
St Brigids 13/2
Aghagallon 15/2
St Johns 12/1
O Donovan Rossa 14/1
St Galls 16/1
Naomh Eanna 20/1
Dunloy 33/1
Tir Na Nog 50/1
Ahoghill 66/1
Moneyglass 100/1

Wouldn't argue too much with these odds from paddy power.

Cargin are still number 1.

If Creggan get their full team out they are number 2.

Portglenone obviously up there.

Lamh dhearg haven't gone away and could beat anyone on their day.

Aghagallon and St Brigids will be hard beat too.

The rest won't make it past the quarters.

Randalstown playing the 2 teams that are safe is an advantage for them also.

I hope so.

Head to head with Moneyglass would give them a 1 point advantage.

So we need 2 points from the last 2 games to be safe, assuming Moneyglass beat St Endas in their last game.

If St Endas won it, then they go to St Galls with still a chance if we don't get a point at Rossa.

St Galls and St Brides just need to play out a draw in the next game to make both of them safe.

Still a lot to keep us interested in the bottom half for another week or two.

A good few of our lads are away on holidays this week so hopefully they don't land back the worse for wear!

Now i know the bottom 3 wont win the championship, but not sure how are dunloy 33/1 !!

[imtommygunn]

Not sure how aghagallon haven't got better odds either. Finalists last 2 years and some good wins in the league. They've 2 of the better forward in the county who missed a lot and now will be back. Definitely wouldn't put st brigids ahead of them or with Ryan Murray injured Lamh Dhearg either.

What's went wrong at st endas ? They seemed to be the big coming force just a few years back

[antrimman667]

Referees getting a lot of stink I see on SV instagram? are they that bad within the county?

[bannside]

You're not going to draw attention or get the views if you run a headline "Antrim referees are doing grand".

Aghagallon look the value at 15/2 but the rest of the odds are thereabouts. Hard to see outside top half half a dozen on that list.

Ref, JMK has added Scotchy Hagan to his management team this year in a prominent role. Think I've only see KMG once but no doubt John has plans to escalate that pre championship. We are in a tough enough group, there's not a lot of room for error.

[JimStynes]

Depends who Rossa get playing for them but they could win a few games. Few very handy players in their ranks too!

Tbh if the contributions to this forum are anything to go by then they're not worth paying any attention to.

Rossa always dangerous come championship. McGettigan, Walsh, Byrne and McEnhill at county plus the likes of Beatty. They'll compete better than they do in the league.

Michael Mc Namee,Kristan Healy,Eoghan Nagle transfers haven't helped Carl,take into account the 3 lads up with Andy,off course we were going to struggle

Seriously , when was the last time they beat a fancied team ie Cargin or St Gallsin the past 20 yrs,  or even Creggan in the past 5/6 yrs  to get such kudos

[imtommygunn]

I don't think they'll win or close but I don't think they would be far away from most teams. Tbh I find it hard to see Cargin beat this year.
