Building consistently?

Did you not lose all your championship games last year and narrowly survive a relegation play-off over aldergrove?

But yeah, you'll have no problem this weekend against the league champions  ;D

Two great fixtures to attend this weekend in terms of what is riding on them.

Portglenone will be favourites but won't get it all their own way as Aghagallon capable of a big performance.

I think Creggan will show up and finish Ballymena's interest.

Everything else looks fairly settled though Randalstown could still turn up and steal an unexpected spot.  Could but I will be keeping my money in my wallet.

I think any sensible All Saints supporter realises what a huge task we have on Sunday. Creggan are an excellent team and are justifiably hot favourites. We will need a 60 minutes performance and everything to fall our way to have a chance. Still, I'm really looking forward to it. Good luck to Baker and his boys

I think recent performances against Creggan will give All Saints confidence. Now they haven't got over the line in any, but a tight league final last year, and competitive league games plus a keenly contested first half display in the championship last year before a sending off and black card killed the contest. Now this is knockout championship football, can All Saints deliver a 60 minute performance? and has creggan another gear? Time will tell

Níl a fhios agam

Games this wee will all go as expected. However expect a challenge atleast out of all saints. If they try and go head to head in a footballing sense, i think Kickhams beat them comfortably. They should adopt Moneyglass' tactics and tr and ruffle a few feathers. If they done that and got down the home stretch still in touching distances, theyve a chance

Casements dont have a great record in crunch games v Aghagallon opposition in recent years. The Armagh men have serious fire power up front and under mckernan theyve looked a different animal this year. LD very fortunate to beat them, so i think this game will be a cracker.

Lets see how Cargin do with probably their greatest ever forward now out. Cannot reading a team sheet or attending a game in Championship he was ever unavailable. However iv heard St.Galls are in similar position with Burns injured. This isnt going to be a battle like we were used to 10 years ago. Would imagine cargin win comfortably

Called a Mary's win early last week and I'm sticking by it. Don't really get all the silly talk about Ballymena based on what exactly?

Creggan by 5 for me, and I fancy this one to be an ill-tempered affair. Looking forward to it.

We're getting to the business end of the season now. Time to sort the men from the boys.
