Is there a chance we'll see a return to a 12 team Division 1 next year?

Good luck to Saints tomorrow and Cargin on Sunday. Tough games for both but who knows....

All games tough at this stage. That's why they are here. I've not seen anything that changes from Cargin giving EC their fill of it and winning.

Stop looking at teams with their county colours on and believe in your own ability

Good point and that would be good advice for both Antrim clubs this weekend not to be looking at both tyrone clubs with there County colours on. Both All Saints and Cargin 100% have the ability and hopefully the belief to get wins this weekend. Many outside Antrim will just see this as 'aww the Tyrone clubs will be too strong'.. personally I don't believe that. Let's hope our clubs prove it. Best of luck to both and hopefully they deliver!!

100% Slemishgael. Good luck to both clubs, do yourselves and Antrim proud.

Is the Ballymena game being streamed at all?

Looks like it's not on Ulster GAA TV, wonder why when most games are available.

Milltown Row2 · November 09, 2024, 01:24:14 PM

Strange, even Tyrone tv?

Milltown Row2 · November 09, 2024, 03:13:02 PM

Ballymena 4 up, hopefully they'll hold on

Sounds like some game - assume penalties now?

Cruel way to lose......A Saints.....

Hard luck All Saints, horrible to lose via the penalties lottery.

I thought when that goal went in at the start of the second half they were home and hosed.

Sounded like a fantastic afternoon's entertainment!

Exciting game of football.

Draw in ordinary time. Draw in ET.
Then beaten by a penalty. Tough to take for All Saints no doubt. The Bmena men essentially lead most of the game. I think when Conor Stewart scored to go a point up at the end of ordinary time the ref should have blew up shortly after as time was up... play kept on and Derrylaughan worked a score. No doubt All Saints will be back. 2 big squads out today.

Entertaining game and a great attendance. Cargin did a great job in hosting. Good luck Cargin tomorrow.

I wouldn't imagine they want to be...

All Saints were brilliant today, brought it to Derrylaughan from the first minute with the direct ball in, but ended up beaten on penalties. Paddy McAleer was excellent I thought and the way Conor Stewart took his goal showed his class. First time I have seen Keenan up close, high level player.
Unlucky lads the future is bright for Ballymena.
