Antrim Football Thread

[Delgany 2nds]

Standard in Antrim football and within each of the championships is poor. Cargin, Moneyglass and St Agnes all to win at a canter.

not sure about that, Moneyglass are playing the league winners.
Sars have lost once this year, to Moneyglass
Moneyglass have lost twice, to Sarsfields (and to glenavy when the league was over)
Both teams have a win each and a draw in their 3 meetings this year.
Has to the most 50/50 game ever.

Abit of sense here

There rest is nonsense for people who enjoy talking to themselves on different accounts

Paddies favs for intermediate before season started and they are a good team. It's a very hard one to call

A few boys  holding slips for  Sarsfields to win at 7/1 since May.

MG were 4/1.

Apologies, I'd only seen it week before championship started

...definitely excellent value @ 7s

[SoloAndGo]

Great value at 7s alright but won't make a difference. MG too strong and powerful throughout the team.

[Saffsof82]

Having played against both mg and sars this season I'd have to sat Sarsfields are the stronger set up, more physical and cynical than mg which will count in the heavier conditions this time of year

Saturday night under the lights is a great setting for a final

Hearing JMK staying on for a fifth year,any truth in that Bannside,would you have any objections if he does,or maybe be interested in the job yourself?

[belfastsaff]

On the topic of management - St Bridgets have released clubman Ruari Oneill of his duties. Players meeting at the weekend and the vote went against him. Heard Shea downey had a huge say.

A year isnt a lot of time however they did look flat in their single knock out game against dunloy.

[NorthAntrimSaff]

Is flatness the managers fault or the players? Seems to be a big turnover of players for them? Was it 2 forwards remained from the previous year i think was mentioned on the commentary

They are always looking a scapegoat ! Maybe look a bit clser to home than the chairman , players didn't turn up

Maybe thats what caused his departure? Not enough Downeys from previous years playing and more st bridgets lads


Also nothing to do with the chairman - was a players vote. The meeting was called by Shea downey.

[BigGreenField]

Still not too late for a combined finals ticket to be launched , be great to have one for all 3 football finals (or hurling!).

[Ghost+Tommy]

YoungSaff you're spot on about John Mc Keever,got told by wee G Mc N,he'd left,on the st brigids meeting,it was Shea Downey along with his old fella that started the shite in lavey and then the rest followed in behind, now the same thing is happening in Musgrave

[kerrygerry]

Thats what the derry boys have been saying about that lavey thing. Looks like its happening again.

[Wildweasel74]

Not knowing who's injured, but Enda Downey and Matthew Downey if fit, be starting that team,as they start Laveys. I seen them lads at underage and they were exceptional.
