Anymore management rumours around

All quiet in cargin maybe on the search for new management

Wonder does RD think he has taken them as far as he can

2 county titles isn't a bad way to bow out all the same ( if that is the case)

Have Cargin appealed Tomas red card? Will he miss the 1st Round of Ulster Club next year?

He misses first game in Antrim

[we are seriously short of strong teams right now]

As for an open championship. Maybe open in terms of chances of getting to a final, and that certainly proved to be the case, but we are seriously short of strong teams right now!

It feels quite difficult to keep people happy on here and appears to be repeated each year.  A month ago the Antrim Championship was being lauded as open and anyone could win, a number of good teams now serious contenders and a county team on the up.  Cargin win and now both they and the other teams are poor. The Tyrone championship is unique in that it is very strong but going through the others you would give any of the Antrim top 5 a chance against the other ulster counties top 5.   

Barring huge upsets (which can happen) Glen are miles ahead of the others in Derry, Kilcoo and Burren the only standouts in Down. Glenties are a quality outfit and they get little credit on here.    The top half of the Antrim league is generally in good shape, the lower half not so much.   

Glenties a serious outfit is that 7 Donegal finals in a row now and throw in an Ulster club final along with that too yet we beat them last year and got little credit for it ,they will be in Ulster semi final at least this year too a well drilled hard outfit

So the most open championship in years according to some on here and it's still cargin as champions!! some love in with Dunloys style on here as two weeks too yet when it came to it they pulled every man behind their own 45 within the first minute even
Guess the "experience" told in the end for an oul done Cargin team.

Perhaps not the result today that Cargin would have hoped for or expected

Totally irrelevant to us about a hurling result tbh means nothing

Any new call ups for the Antrim panel this year? any people should get the buzz?

Surely the whole Dunloy team should get a call up they set football ablaze in the county by all accounts

Bridget's absolutely putrid style of football, fully to blame of how bad a game it was, have to laugh shouting we have no respect in their huddle, respect is earned and one thing is for sure they earned zero yesterday.
When We got stuck in they didn't want to know.

Our lads will be happy men on the building site today     

Don't pass all the buck onto st Brigids. It takes 2 to tango and Cargin scored 3 points first half, took zero risks and were happy to play the waiting game.

Cargin got 2 lucky goals and was enough to see them through in a war of attrition in horrendous conditions.

If you call a lucky goal Tomas McCann dispossessing the biddies courageous captain and Conhuir Johnston calmly sticking it in the net then yes maybe was a touch lucky alright 🤭

What does the Building Site line mean?

'Go back to the building site', The St B Captain was heard saying this to a Cargin player as a sledge. Taken to mean if working on a building site during the week was worthy of an insult 

Coughing up the ball for the first goal! Karma!!! maybe should keep the mouth closed!

Good few of them mouthing from what I hear
Truth of it is when cargin got physical they didn't want to know a case of usual story with NB they have absolutely no middle in them at all.

Dunloy are formidable opposition, but I'd be optimistic that PG1 can make the final. No point in taking any other viewpoint Lar. Some great matches in store.

PG1 be in the Final without a doubt

Bannside is very quiet the nerves must be kicking in now 

Great weekend of sport awaits! Bring her on...

Clubs should have nomination forms anytime soon for any aspiring administrators who think they can step up and add value/make a difference.

Soon CMC and Donal Murphy will be stepping down after a 4 year stint. While its easy to snipe from the sidelines the list of achievements/developments during their tenure is very very impressive.

Looking forward to this weekend BS
Can the ports finally get over their semi final jinx or can Dunloy upset the odds and spring a surprise.

Big week ahead for Antrim Championship, who are we saying to progress?

4 Downeys on when Matthew came on plus the guy from Killyclogher, 5 men they didn't have last season in the starting team. Wouldn't be accepted in any traditional gaa club. St Brigids are different from the norm but that's how they do things, tough game for us still think we will edge them.

I'd have agreed before today but after seeing the influence the Downeys have on that team I'm not so sure.

Bring on the BT9ers and the Lavey huffers ,manufactured outfit 

Collie McDonald very harsh on us! Bottled a big call at the end when it was level. McCann man handled throughout the game and then gets red.

Thing is when you hit with an elbow it's usually a red card he can't have any complaints
You couldn't beat cargin when we had an off day so it's back to the drawing board for wee Pete
We march on regardless.

Is that three QF exits on the bounce for LD now? Dunloy always were gonna give that a lash and Lynch missing from middle helped limited player an all as he is he stands his ground.huge result and possibly not only so called shock of weekend.
