Anyone else watching any of the promoted teams at the weekend??

All games with the exception of Aldergrove seemed to be right an competitive.

Ballymena in particular, getting off to a flyer. Think the bottom 6 will be a dog fight and a few may find themselves in it that wont have expected to be.

Cut our loss with that senior team for the next few years and start getting the underage to a different level. Year on year its the same shite. The period Baker had Antrim, that squad was primed off the back of St. Galls success, men with schools football success and the likes of Murrray, Crozier etc..'s teams who got to an Ulster Final and an AI Minor Quarter.

What has McEntee inherited...

Anyone heard any reports of the club leagues being pushed back to allow greater participation of county players and facilitate a properly split season from county to club? Heard wind of that in other counties but not sure if Antrims leagues will commence around March again. Could imagine a condensed club season with the amount of dual players in the county could create its own problems

i was just curious as Aghagallon are now at a bit of a crossroads, couldnt believe the management stepped away in first place after the finish to their year. Must have a better propostion elsewhere. TNN also looking a manager i believe. Be one for BS or the likes..

Any word on Aghagallon appointment or any of the other clubs? Think Aghagallon would be an interesting challenge for some1. I presume the majority of management teams are remaining in Div1. McNulty to remain, Douglas, McCabe and Herron all staying on

MR2 jumping on everyones back who dares to criticise anything in Antrim GAA.

Is that snowflake mentality or is it the type of authoritarian tactic cops and traffic wardens use when challenged?

Think you would make a great traffic warden. Requires a massive chip on the shoulder though ....

Could someone explain to me on the reasons we are seeing soo many ruck type scenarios taking place around breaks, where at times 6 men can be in the middle of it.

Notcied it alot on saturday and sunday, and during the semi final games. Seems to be a thing in Antrim Football that refs are letting develop. On dry conditions its good to watch as a contest but with the handling and soft ground Sunday there was serious fouls taking place in the rucks which the ref seemed to turn a blind eye to.

Also dont see much of these situations in Tyrone, Derry, Down or Donegal club football where iv been watching seinor championship games. Is it unique to Antrim due to having soo many dual Refs?

BS who did you manage to get at 12/??

Saw ports now down to 5/1, must be getting heavily backed. Johnnies out to 14/1 after LD defeat.

Im sure anyone of the teams who are on the other side of the draw will give themselves a puncherschance should they make the final and hope one of the big 5 who make it get complacent.

Id prefer to see the previous structures in place in Antrim where there were 5 divisions made up of a combination of Club seniors, reserves and thirds teams.

Junior/ Intermediate teams were able to play against some of the top clubs reserves which kept healthy competition. If i were St.Comgalls, Pearses, Wolfetones etc.. id love a crack at Creggan, Johnnies, Cargin etc... oportunity to play on them grounds alone for them clubs are few and far between. The leagues were competitive and it mattered to Reserve team players in them leagues to go and win some meaningful silverware.

Even in DIv 1senior clubs reserves teams sometimes look they have pulled guys from the bar to field a team. Doesnt benefit anyone that

Was up watching Cloney v Aghagallon last night. Cloney played most of the game with 14 men. Aghagallon a shadow of the team i saw last year. Looked very clueless on the ball and gave alot away. Aside from trying to cut the game rough, they didnt seem to have much in the locker. Worry for them. 10points is a real hammering in Gaelic football nowadays
