Down v Monaghan - Saturday 24th June at 7pm

[GaillimhIarthair]

Thoroughly enjoyable match there this evening.  Fair play to Down, they brought a lot of physicality that some of the Monaghan lads didn't handle at all well.  The sub referee was very poor and I hope he's marked accordingly by the assessors.

Exciting game and a great (thoroughly deserved) upset win for Down.
As has been already mentioned I thought that the replacement referee rode Down sideways in the second half as well, some inexplicable decisions.

Hardstation away back to the Antrim chat
Give us a shout when the McKenna cup starts

Men against boys, after a 2 point, nail biting win.

Really disappointed with Jack McCarron today. He was brilliant against us in clones when he got a lot of space but he didn't want to know tonight. Never got into and couldn't handle the physical stuff and really poor free at the end

He had a great league but has totally lost form in the championship.

I think league football & heavier pitches suit him.
Hasn't the burst of speed or agility to make space for himself in summer football.

The down way and swagger is back. Should be A great Ulster final. That Down team can win the all Ireland back for Ulster.

Far too one footed.

Congratulations Down.
Always happy to see our fellow aristocrats (up North) doing well.

Embarrassing coattailing. Let down have their day ffs.

[Jinxy]

So this was their 'day' was it?
I suppose you'll hammer them in the final, yeah?
Sickening arrogance as usual.

Better coattailing than coat trailing.
