Portaferry beat St Galls handy enough tonight in Belfast,they couldnt handle Paul Braniff
Dunloy beat Glenariffe by 3 (I think) in the end.
Decent enough match considering the state of the pitch
Slaughtneil and Carrickmore drew in Div 2.
Castleblaney beat St.Endas in Dundalk by 2 points. Poor match in v windy conditions. Endas went unbeaten in the UL last year now they can't get a full team out. ???
8 in at the final whistle, good game, ports seem to be fit and had a full team out.
good run out, braniff makes them tick, any other results out there?

Milltown what did you make of the diminuitive St Galls player confronting the umpire in the second half? ! Also where was the third member of the Mc Gourty clan?
Result from Division 4A
Na Magha (Derry city) 3 - 12
Strabane Shamrocks 1 - 5
Played in a gale and hail showers. Some decent hurling from both despite this.
Milltown what did you make of the diminuitive St Galls player confronting the umpire in the second half? ! Also where was the third member of the Mc Gourty clan?
i thought he was well within his rights to confront the cheating umpire ;D
only players who have paid their subs to the club can play, that third member has not paid and i don't think will be playing any day soon
The third member is "Shaws Road", CJ and Ciaran were both playing. Milltown, you did pick the ball off the ground though before you put the ball over !
it just hopped up, had the referee seen a foul on the ball he'd have blown his whistle ;D
Dont worry about what they say rower man, your still my hero ;) and I seen the ball sail over the bar. And no mention of your super strike for the goal, from all of half a yard :D
top scorer again this year
good numbers, hopefully the application this year will be good. getting into div 1 will be our goal, but will be very tough considering Rossa and Ballycran and the rest will be pushing hard. away to Ballycran next sat night, they'll be strong.
Surely the numbers couldnt be that good rower man if your still getting a game ;D.
Always the same scenario hardstation while one code is very sucessful the other will suffer, and surely you couldnt mention kevin and strange in the same sentence. ::)
Fixtures for this weekend?
the down teams wont be playing their games due to the Div 2 semi final against Westmeath on the Sunday, whats the ruling on that? i didn't think games could be called off
three o'clock is just about the worse possible time they could have come up with for us to travel to paly ballygalget. leave dunloy at 12:30 to get through city traffic on a saturday and not home till 6:30 but still too early in the day to get a few beers in on bus
If the Down teams do play they'll do so without their county players. With Down involved in a league semi final and South Down in the Div 4 Final there's no way county players will be risked.
I'd expect the games to be called off and re-fixed so don't book the bus yet Max.
We (Glenarm) are making a night of it & staying down for a few 7up's after our game with Castleblayney ;D ;)

That's the great thing about the Ulster league!
a lot of teams last year played without their county players in the Ulster hurling league. we will not be playing with a lot of our seniors because of the timing. games on a sat night before crucial league games is a non starter
As expected a number of games are postponed due to the NHL play offs.

Quote from: Bacon on April 13, 2008, 02:34:55 PM
Ballygalget & Dunloy drew in Div 1
Aye,
it was a good run out for some of our younger players as the county contingent were not considered, two of which are still minors and they weren't out of their depth. Dunloy were far from full strength as well and got off to a good start with a gift of a goal for Paddy Richmond who doesn't need an invitation at the best of times. Once we settled down we played our way into the game and held the lead through most of the second half with Dunloy levelling from a free ??? with the last puck of the game.
I'd say our management are happy enough as we haven't done a huge amount of fitness yet and that'll improve as the weeks go by.
Armagh Cuchulaiins V Sarsfields Belfast
1-14 a piece
HAve to say from what i saw (2nd half) a draw was the fairest result.
Few of our players were off the pace, but who isnt this time of year.
Other than that good build up play to our goal.

our game against Ballycaste is to be fixed for wed night, obviously difficult for both teams to prepare for important league fixtures the following day when playing in the ulster league on a sat night.
which begs the question, is it not a better idea having the Ulster hurling played off before the leagues start? it makes sense ::)

I think we've a similar problem with our trip to Rossa on saturday evening and then senior and reserve on sunday up in Dunloy.
Our management doesn't seem to have issues playing in the Ulster league minus our county players like we did against Dunloy on saturday but not the night before an Antrim league game as that's the priority especially now with a cut throat division 1.
Crazy fixtures over the next few weeks. So much for using the UHL as a warm up for the County hurling leagues like it did last year. U21 Friday, UHL Saturday & Senior&Senior Res on Sunday. Typical feast or famine fixtures for the club hurler.
Why (if they wanted to free up time for county team preparations in June did they not arrange UHL matches then which could be played without County men?
At the minute the UHL is a hinderance rather than the useful competition was last year. As they say up the west...."it's a loada leeks"

I was at a meeting in early 2007 when the antrim clubs lambasted Antrim CCC for trying to fit their fixtures in around the ulster league i.e they originally arranged antrim league matches for mid week as the UHL fixtures were out in advance. div 1 clubs, l'giel and dunloy in particualr were very vocal in their request for sunday antrim league games (which is understandable) and they were quite aware that this would mean matches on both sat on sun but thats they requested.
as a result of this clubs are fast losing interest in the ulster league. it was fine in the first year when clubs could not rely on regular antrim league fixture but this has largely changed in my vioew thanks to a no-nonsense approach from antrims CCC. not everyone will like their style but its the only style to get the message across to clubs who constantly want to buck the system. rossa footballers found this out ot their cost last year.
i think there is only room for one set of leagues long term
Our match with Ballygalget is off.
Guillem2, is that in preparation for the game down the lane on Sunday? oh wait you've sold that place up above.
So i'm led to believe, if your going to sell up would you do it now? value for money in real estate is pretty bad
What are they planning to do with the equity?

game was changed to an earlier time and a lot of lads could not make it.
game was won when a hopefull punt into the box was diverted into the net by the keeper (who had an outstanding game) and we won by 1

Cushendall - - Dunloy Loughgiel S-Final 7pm
Should be good match with championship starting next week
Dunloy 1-16 to Cushendall 1-13
Cushendall missing a few McNaughton & McManus, as were dunloy Ally, Molloy, Dick (came on in second half) & Quinn.
Competitive game but no real flow or pattern, alot, alot of frees. Dunloy won because of a fortunate goal late in the game and will be anything but happy with the performance especially in the first half where we trailed by 5.
Cushendall doing as expected and stating to come good at the right time. Given the draw maybe they feel they only need to really peak for a final (though the Johnies might have something to day about that), they will again be a serious team to contend with this year
Cuchulainns V Randalstown is on Wed night in Sarsfields,
They beat us last year by 2 points so hoping to turn the tables on them.
Does big Magill still play for them, he certainly celebrated Armaghs ulster title in style ;)
Ballygalget vrs Dunloy final scheduled for Casement next week. I think it might be the wednesday or friday night.
I believe the ref in the Ballygalget vrs Glenariff had difficulty counting the score but got it sorted in the end..

Quote from: milltown row on September 03, 2008, 01:04:58 PM
ulster hurling league shite, no other teams apart from antrim teams would or should i say can play . A harsh reailty from the 6 county format. :o
Should that not be nine counties milltown. As far as I remember Burt and Setanta did well in it last year. Not a lot coming from Cavan admittedly but some of the Monagan teams but in an effort.
sorry slow corner back, gremlins have been at my account, will have to change password, i'm all for the Ulster league all 9 counties competing
I thought it was very early for you to be on the drink Milltown.
I had the same problem ,miltown hoe. Them gremlins are pain in the back side. What did you do pee them off ???
Never was a massive fan of the UHL, but I think on reflection that teams (ones with large panels anyway) can really benefit from the extra games that it provides. At least the final was played at a better time of the year than last year, but if two Antrim clubs had still to meet each other in the championship then it wouldn't have happened
What about the other counties? Whats your take?
The Antrim leagues seem to be running fairly smoothly this year so clubs playing in Antrim have regular games. Outside of Antrim the rest of Ulster is disaster. In Down the footballers have played around 18 league games while the hurlers have played 9. That's not near enough to keep lads interested so the Ulster league helps fill the gap.
When do u think the cops;(ruc)psni will take part in the ulster legue . Well it be soon or ever?
Any coments?

no cushendall
are you surprised? they have entred once. it affects their performance. they have the usual slow start to the league and peak for championship. works for them
They entered this year and won the ulster championship,
not surprised really as with it starting so early their players maybe want a break.

Surely they're carrying a sizeable squad of lads some of whom may have trained all winter and would be looking to step up a grade.
The UHL is a good standard to trying young lads out in
looking forward to the start of the UHL this year, we have been dropped down a league, we only won two games last year and although we got to the 1/4 finals one year after a draw with Johnnycool's team (missed a one on one with Clarke that day >:() we found it hard to field most days.
hopefully the lads get behind it and put in a run of sorts and get ready for the All county league
still think they could run this comp from February till April then your right into the league
Any fixtures milltown? One way fixtures only? If youse are in armagh v cuchulains I'll come and see what youse are made of!
Cuchulain's game is first at Milltown on the 21st the away to dungannon :(
Saturdays don't really suit but sure beggars can't be choosers

If that was the drawn game in Ballygalget you're talking about, it wasn't Graham in nets, it was a much more handsome gentleman who had to step in at the last minute ;)

We were well beat by Glenariffe 1-14 to 0-7, but we were minus over 20 players from the panel. I even had to make an appearance.We will be far stronger next week when Rossa visit Dungiven. Any other Derry side result's????
Lisbellaw pulled out of our (Eoghan Rua) tie, think it was because of a funeral, thereby denying Ulster hurling a clash of the giants. Pity. Have had decent numbers out at training after last years farce and was really looking forward to a game :(.
Surprised to see Armoy get stuffed so much by Rasharkin! Must be that well tanned fella with the politically correct name pulling the strings...

A load of this weeks games have been called off.
is this due to the Antrim leagues starting? Cushendall are playing Ballygalget and a host of north Antrim teams are playing on the Sunday. cant stress enough about the Ulster hurling league being played earlier in the year. once it starts to infringe on the all County leagues then it does not get the proper attention it deserves.
which games have been called off?
Loughgiel v Ballygalget OFF
Banagher v Ballinascreen OFF
Cuchulainns v St Pauls at Pearse Og Park OFF
Lamh Dearg v Cushendun at Hannahstown OFF
Ballela v All Saints Ballymena OFF
Not that too many would have been keeping an eye out for the score but the Ballela v Ballymena match has been called off due to a death in our parish and not Ballymenas participation in the Antrim league.
Are you fielding in the South Antrim league Whitehair? I think you are down to play Sarsfields IIs on Monday.

We played St Johns there on Monday night but I havent heard anything about a match this Monday yet....
Guys, where can you get the league tables for this competition
Ulster GAA website, go to the results section and the tables are there.
How many games were played tonight? This was meant to be the last round of league matches and the quarter finalists should be known.
Ballygalget beat Rossa
Lamh Dreag beat Newry Shamrocks
Div 5
Carrickmacross beat Bredagh IIs 17 -3.
Ardoyne beat Carryduff
Davitts beat Castlewellan
Any other results?
ballinascreen beat us down there yesterday, game we could have won but were beat by the better team on the day, think we need to beat banagher to have a chance of qualifying for later stages.

The Ports got beat by the Johnnies by three or four points on saturday evening
Dunloy beat Keady by 10 points 3-14 to 3-24. Very open entertaining game.
On a disappointing note. Our boys made the 4 hour round trip, to change in a store room, then no showers after the game. To top it off they didn't even offer a cup of tea and a sandwich. One Keady official was overheard saying "sure they won't starve". They should be ashamed of themselves for treating a travelling club with such disregard. >:(

One thing the other Ulster teams have proved though that there is very little difference when it comes to Division 2 and on levels. We're all roughly at the same standard - discuss
Always thought the fact that the strong hurling clubs outside of Antrim (in Derry at least) were often top football clubs was an important factor. At a certain level higher work rate, pressure and basic simple hurling can bring you through against mid level hurlers. Not enough for the higher echelons though - nor pretty to watch!
Quote from: hatchetfield on April 20, 2009, 11:27:44 AM
Have to agree with the sentiments Skull. One thing i noticed definately is the cheek of these non-Antrim teams - seem to have a real chip on their shoulders - very angry indeed!! That Middleton team we played (who were very able by the way and the better team on the day) couldn't smile, some wouldn't shake hands after the match and all their subs wanted to rip the head of some of our boys from the sidelines - what's all that about. Noticed it a few times against non-antrim teams. It's alright lads, we all love hurling as much - no need for the chips!!
Milltown - that Banagher team are a very nifty side and they'll take some beating!! How did you's go in your first match of the antrim league? Our match v Clooney Gaels was called off - calling it a mud bath would be generous!!

beat Shane O'Neills, bit of a lottery, the wind was the difference and we won the toss and scored well. think Glenarm could have made inroads but went for goal far to early. play Gaels on Sunday. expect tough game

screen Were playing St Galls at the weekend At Our pitch and afterwards the Travelling team were taken into the club and they all got Hot food from our club. This is the way teams should treat each other as after all, we are all trying to promote the game and make our teams better. As a wise man once said, "Manners are easily carried"

What you describe here is pretty common from the Armagh clubs and Their county team behaves much the same.
Keady and Middletown used to look to play us in friendlies every year and the verbals from the players, Subs, supporters and even management was a joke and relentless at times and once you started to pull away from them it got even worse. Always hated playing them for this reason, but also enjoyed giving them a good beating every time for the same reason. Last year Our reserves Played Armagh Cuchulainns senior team in a friendly and it was much the same. I do agree they seem to have a massive chip on their shoulders bout something.
Its our last game this sat v banagher if we win it leaves us on 8 points. There seems to be a good few fixtures weren't played it seems to happen alot in UHL. UHL are pretty strict with the dateline date so most of them don't ever get refixed. ( which is good i think). It increases our chances of a semi final spot. ;D ;D
To be honest think the managment are taking the UHL as a build up to the League and championship, as i suspose alot of teams do.
Signum Fidei - Sign of Peace
The motto of my former school

First round of the Derry football championship is coming up shortly Signum. I wouldn't be so sure that it'll be played

Yes this game was played on Saturday evening past there we (Cuchulainns) won by a point v.tight game of hurling was just glad it finished as the the rain, thunder and lightening was getting started. AFAIK we're away to Banagher this weekend
Screen reserves were beat by a point by Cúchulainns...although they did seem to have a fair few missing. You seem to be very critical of the Armagh clubs just because they bring a bit of physicality to the game...I must say, we have played the top three Armagh clubs over the past few years in the Ulster League and we have lost more than we have won....but the games have always been very good because you knew you were getting a good tough game before you started!! Maybe the Armagh clubs should pack it in and allow the Antim snobs to work away on their own in the Leinster Club League!!
i see that the league deadline is this sunday 31 May. Anyone know if the banagher v Screen game went ahead in the derry league i could see them playing that game for the two leagues winner takes all ??
We have one game left v Banagher don't know if it wil be played. wonder who will be the semi finalists. i would say that gort and middletown are through and Cúchulainns too and its between us and screen.

where did you hear about the deadline- we still have 3 games to play
our management got in touch with the Ulster Club hurling league and that is the date that was given for cut off regarding all group fixtures
Screen and Banagher game didnt go ahead
What is the craic with ulster league semi finals and finals and does anyone know when and if they are taking place.
Ballycran beat Portaferry by 1-7 to 1-6 on a god awful night for hurling on friday night.
The driving rain throughout ruined whatever hurling was in the game as lads couldn't hold their hurls or feeting to strike the ball with any degree of consistencey
The down side for the Crans is that allegedly they lost Simon Wilson to a straight red after the game for 'abusing an official' which is rightly being punished a lot more by referee's.
I suppose they'll now play Rossa in the final in the coming weeks.
Castlewellan beat Clonduff on Monday night in the Ulster League Div 5 semi final replay 1:8 1:12 in Piarc Eisler after a 3:8 0:17 draw in the first game and they now go on to face Cappagh Gaels from Tyrone in the final on Sept 5th in the Athletic Grounds, Armagh. Possibly the Ulster Council could organise a neutral referee for the final after a diabolical performance in the semi

The game was played in Creggan on Saturday evening and with the aid of a strong breeze we(Ballela) lead 2.7 to 0.3 at half time. Na Magha started the second half strongly and reduced the lead to 5points. We then had to play out the last 20min with 14 men but held firm.
well done whitehair, hope the celebrations didn't go on too long!
Div1 final never took place, called off for some reason or another.

Last minute Michael Turley goal gave Rossa a 3.10 to 1.15 win.
Well done Rossa. They'll take great heart from that title and deserve great credit considering the sides they beat to win it. Don't you think Queenie? :P
Was there many Gaels at it?
Big enough crowd for a Wednesday night, match didn't really get going with both teams matching eachother in the first half. They went in level at the break. Ballycran seemed to be taking all their chances, on the other hand, Rossa were making chances but missing a lot of scoreable ones. Jim Connolly got two goals in the first half and Ballycrans goal was the first score of the game, a rebound from a 20m free. Conor Woods was excellent in midfield and would have been man of the match until that boy fired in the goal at the end, good finish.
