Cargin win by 2.

St Brigid's beating moneyglass well and Rossa beating St John's.

Donal Murphys boot looked very weighed down there on way out, the Eddie Fitz was obviously in there ready to present, Antrim PRO there as well 🤣
All joking aside good tight game we're on a nice run now with players gradually coming back and young guns rising to the fore. Ports be dissapointed but the league is still in their hands.

There would have been ones on complaining that there was no representation or cup there to present...

Hard game to assess. PG1 in control for long periods of first half, two goals in a couple of minutes from Cargin and they went in ahead at the break.

Cargin went four clear and PG1 claw that back to a one point lead with five minutes left, but a shoulder injury to Dermot McAleese with 15 to go left big void and Cargin, as they do, finished strong to keep league open.

As EOC says some of Cargins young guns are settling in and looking good, but PG1 will take positives and know that we are definitely thereabouts, regardless of who wins the league.

Glenravel promoted from Div 2

Ballymena aldergrove drew. Surprised to see rasharkin get beat at home in division three but they still look on for promotion.

Division one relegation very tight but quite a few teams there with county players back might make a difference.

Ballymena have hit really poor form it seems Baker can't back up his guarantee to them from
Last year about promotion it's not just as easy as he thought this old Antrim football.
On the big game tonight ports just can't get over the line albeit played well at times too ,we have so many more the bring in too McNabb and Mick McCann just to name a couple ,believe they will beat Ahoghill to win it and they deserve to win it this year just can't seem to beat this Cargin team that's over the hill apparently 👀😊

So no bonus for Bradley then ?

I thought Casements last game was against us? (Creggan)

Cargin were missing Mick Paul & Thomas McCann, Cahiar Donnelly, Sean ONeill, Pat Shivers and John McNabb from their championship winning team. They introduced O Neill for the injured James Laverty before half time and Paul & Thomas McCann in the last 15.

If Casements couldn't win this game at home with that many players not starting they have not got a mission in the championship. Totally failed this evening. No other way if dressing it up.

Am I right in saying cargin replaced Jamie gribben with Tomas McCann and then replaced James Laverty with Sean O'Neill now that's a quality bench.

Long time in the wilderness.

They do well to stay in D1, fair play to them though,  didn't see them winning the league this year,  they can enjoy the celebrations. When was the last time they where in D1?

D1 tight at the bottom, St Galls in bother? When was the last  time they where out of the top.division?

The year before they won the senior championship.

If we are relegated that's where we should be based on results, no club has a divine right to stay up based on tradition.
