You couldn't wait. Go ahead and fill your boots....

Results from this weekend would suggest the senior Champ is wide open. Would that be the case or am I reading it wrong?
Creggan Rossa and LD can't be ruled out. Lavey in the mix too. Cargin still front runners? PG1 lose a game or two every year but will still be in the shake up. Wide open lads.

Wide open for second, but Cargin are too good for everyone else.

Of course Cargin are up the R with the front runners loaded with experience and an extended youth based panel to call on.
Lamh Dearg are in the front row, not to rule out Aghagallon or indeed Creggan who are not to be dismissed....
PG1 endured set back today and am reminded just how difficult it is the add a senior championship to a league title.....
A lesson well delivered by St Galls.....

So you are predicting Ahoghill to beat Portglenone and St Endas to beat LD away?

Caesar

LD vs PG1 was a decent game but suspect both them teams would need to find another gear to seriously challenge Cargin or Creggan. Will PG1 be without the services of Niall Delargy and Dermot McAleese for long? Seemed to be missing a handful of others too

On another interesting note, at the game yesterday a certain LD player (no prizes for guessing who) clearly struck his opponent off the ball as witnessed by many including the linesman. Blatant red card. To his credit, I was within earshot as Gerard Dougan relayed this to the referee who decided not to take any action.

I often see posts on this board about lack of umpires and support for referees which is fair enough, but what's the point if the referee is going to disregard their assistance?

Interesting point, sounds like a strange situation right enough

Wasn't at the game, was it picked up on TV?
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought.

I wouldn't write any team off yet it's too early.
Creggan are very quiet, their championship group has given them the time needed to pull together and for me they are Cargins biggest challengers. Shocks can happen but this is the likely final. Ld showed yesterday they are a championship team, probably bullied a naive Casements a bit yesterday which will be tough to swallow along the Bannside. But it's early days and all to play for.

Ghost+Tommy

Yes I think we will beat LD

Is it score difference or head to head in the group?
