Managerial merry go round in full swing...never saw as many clubs in changeover mode in Antrim or neighbouring Derry. It's literally open season out there atm.

Glad to say Cargin are not on such with management sorted...
But hey let the well practised requiems commence.....

Will the new management put up with you lingering around the dugout stirring things up?

Was only winding. May be in the minority but i will miss watching the great st galls team that dominated antrim for 20 years. Best team ive ever seen in antrim and i doubt we will see their likes for quite a while. Loved watching them play football, a joy to watch. Super, super team.

👍🏻

Im sure cargin wont be short of men looking to take them. Same case with LD and PG1. 3 good squads to work with for any manager. St galls on the other hand.....sorry MR2😀

Where is cassidy off to then?

I see LD seeking new managers also

D C is back home to Wolfe Tones......

Cannot understand your logic geezer......Galls were far to good for Cargin in the under-20 championship at Toome.
Indeed such was their strength they did not include 8 from the side which only lost narrowly to their hosts in the semi final stage of the 2018 minor championship.

But when it came to senior 2021 they only had 4 from that winning combination. One starter and three more on the panel list.

So the Milltown residents must be certainly blessed with an extended number of young players, potential aplenty.

They had outsiders playing for them. Shouldn't be counted at all.

Can we strike off the 3 in a row and this year's league considering the Whitehill man was playing for your lot in them

I'm not a journalist, however I suppose that makes two of us, eh CB

Well you were giving advice as to potential management.. such did look like advice.
As for cup crossing the road and if such event occurs after a mere 67 years that will be about time.

Chickens and hatched does come to mind however and will be a rare occurrence....

Classy as always from the most biased "journalist" I have ever come across.

I think Creggan will do it. 6/7 points. Just one step too far for a young Aghgallon team.

Although, after couple defeats in group and near misses against Endas some might say their name is on the trophy!

Will be a good game and looking forward to it. Just think last 10 mins, Creggan will pull away. Physically and power of running just too much in the end .

Journalist? I should have realised it was everyone's favourite who uses a notepad to 'pay' his way into every game, the big give away should have been the spelling mistake!

I was talking in jest this game is in now way taken for granted by any of our boys! Aghagallon will be hard to shake off, they are a skilful side who don't know when they are beaten! Not many sleeps to go now

Now, now don't get all upset C D.....think a couple of applicants already in...
Will keep you informed.....after all Cargin do have more than enough lads with experience aplenty in winning chapionships....
Am sure they will be grateful for your honest concern.

Now CB don't be getting carried away, where did I express any concern or sentiment of upset? Trying to build the aul siege mentality I see, will be hard for you boys to stomach when you see the cup crossing the road with our boys

Well well Damian Cassidy gone from Cargin, time for the minor managers from the double winning team to step up?

I'd say they'll go in house. John McKeever and why not

Think that would be more a case of John would want it, if he does it's a no brainer!!

I see PG1 are pushing their lotto on a social media, raising the funds for Dillions pay off and the bounty for their next big name manager?

See an interesting video of Martin Kane on Twitter there from a second off in the semi final fit Greenlough, what are the views in this

Lecturer? That's a bit disappointing.
You came across as though you had much more to offer than that.

You sound like my wife!

Double edged sword I could have chosen a life in practice but I fear I would be as popular as MR2 in the Elk

Ah intimidation!  Why would the patrons of the Elk dislike me? Are you saying life would be difficult?

Jeez MR2 relax pal! I am sure the patrons of the Elk would happily mob you with drinks and kind retorts! Life in NI for a lot of my friends who read their articles after we studied together was no picnic during darker days as you can imagine

FFS man I was staying out of this one, yes please however look back at the definition of illegal and unlawful

Not a QC btw only a lowly lecturer

Hypothetically, if a glenravel man took the clubs seniors but lived in belfast and he was paid a bit for travel. Would that be cheating?

Travel expenses are fine regardless of where they live, phone usage back in the day was a good money spinner

I dont know if there is a rule or not about paying managers, genuinely dont. But if a club raises funds via lotto, fundraisers etc then what is the problem with them using that money to pay a manager?

It would be against the rules just.

..

Fouling an opponent is cheating. Play-acting is cheating. Curious that you're perfectly comfortable supporting a team who do both yet pontificate about cheating to others but I guess you've made your peace with your rank hypocrisy....

Embarrassing the lengths people will go to defend this. Have a word with yourself.

Fouling ffs 

Had a word with myself there. We both agreed you're on shaky ground with the cherry picking approach to what sorry of cheating is ok and what isn't.

A club making a considered decision to illegally (GAA rules or otherwise for Calm Down QC) pay a salary to a manager v a mistimed tackle from a wing back.

I agree, there really isn't much of a difference there....

There are no limits to the defence of this.....

Was that what happened PG1 RC?

First rule of war, know your enemy, MR2 has been lining up bringing down Cargin for some time

On a serious note I would think his pay masters in Totes and your man McKauige would have much love for Cargin being LD men  , just saying

You can't fault the preparation which is put into getting the ref ready for the county final, driving around all year to different games with the men who give out the big appointments if not appointing yourself to a county final
