Antrim Football Thread

Most of the ball is certainly out....

Yep, from looking at the pic, from that angle, you can't say all of the ball is out.

Ah now lads, you are just trying to stoke the ashes here. The pic going round very clearly shows the whole ball is well out, like we arent talking inches rather feet.

If someone doesn't believe what their own eyes and an independent photographer are saying then they are just confirming their own bias. Chances are they are their own club's slabber.  Just give the referees and his umpires their fair dues in getting the call right, blowing the incident early and calling it there and then.

I read an article online that says Corrigan will no longer be available to county hurlers.
Is this true? Does it also apply to the footballers?

why?

Although county have refuted it seemingly.

The hurling would near be better up in one of the north antrim venues anyway tbh.

Wonder why it's not available. You would think with the money pumped in from the county it would be.

Strange one.

Wasnt there a plan to put standing terraces for 1000 supporters to replace the grass banks at Corrigan? Maybe they are starting that work and in certain weeks the grounds wont be available to the county?

I wouldn't trust our county board to run a bath.

The portglenone player was that far back he is nearly at the fence there is zero chance that ball is still in play better still all cargin players stopped knowing it was wide and not one portglenone player protested either that in itself tells its own story

They could've done with a bit more psi in that ball.  Deflategate replay?

Lol lol lol...

The bots are out in force, and still no evidence to show the ball was out of play. But hey, let it go, it's over, we were in your head before the game and we will be in it again.

We move on. Hopefully Cargins superb game management continues in Ulster, good bunch of lads, and no ill will from PG1 whatsoever.

But be clear about one thing picture of innocence bystander. Your comment that PG1 don't know how to win and Cargin dont know how to lose will come back to bite you in the arse.

That was a battle on Sunday, Cargin do what they do, and PG1 go back to the well.

[Hectic]

Lads just to clarify this would only be the case if he has his own umpires with him  Not the home and away umpires cheating like fcuk

Funny because it is so true. 

And if you think football is bad should see home and away hurling umpires, lot of them seem to think it is part of the remit as the 16th and 17th man.

But I don't know the exact process for umpire involvement in square ball anymore.  It is one that is very rarely called too.

[Hectic]

Curly McIlwaine puts the "was it out" debate to bed.

That picture is not conclusive.

Needed to be taken along the line.

Great shot though for the shape of the ball. And the terrible position of the near umpire - I'd like to think the far umpire called it.

[Take the Mark]

Relax BS, the illustrious antrim all stars are open for nominations tonight - you might get 1 of those for the mantelpiece to soften the blow of Paddy Mac not being there.

Mostly fair comments BS, but are other people calling these umpires liars? One in behind and one with a perfect view across? Look at the players feet, how far they are back from the line and also both players leaning back. Also look at direction of the angle the cargin outfield player is looking at across to action.
Come on lads it does look fairly obvious 

Great final, maybe not quality wise but action and intensity wise was best in years. 2025 will be an interesting one again

Your looking for evidence, evidence shows in the last 6 years every championship battle PG1 have been in they've lost, haven't beat Cargin since 2009 never won a senior championship, there's your evidence PG1 dont know how to win.

On the other hand winning 8 out of the last 10 championship's shows Cargin know how to win. (In Antrim at least)

I know alot of lads from PG1 who are proud of their teams performance and admit game could have went either way and possibly Cargins experince helped them on the line.

BS on the other hand you've been nothing but Salty.

Also never said they dont know how to lose, Cargin spent many many many years on the wrong end of results.

Irrespective of whether it was marginally out or marginally in look at the debate after a still picture from it and then consider these boys had a decision to make in real time with a short window of a glimpse at it.
