Antrim Football Thread

I would say Rossa and St Johns will get out of their groups.

The group with St Galls and St Brigids in it is definitely interesting. I wouldn't guarantee St Brigids get out and then Cargin would need to be on top of their game too but would expect them to come out.

I wouldn't rule LD out either though on current league form Aghagallon would go through but it is only the league. Then Portglenone would be favourites but no given either.

3 of the 4 groups I would say you could tell who will be 4th but 2nd / 3rd tight. In the TNN group - they could maybe give Glenravel or Rossa a rattle on their day. Interesting enough draw all in all I think.

Be surprised if Rossa and St John's didnt clear the group.

Bit of jeopardy for a couple of big teams, venue might be important (1 home, 1 away, 1 neutral).

While Antrim are still in camp going to be a challenge for sides with more than one or two county men to get fully set. For  6 of the teams with championship ambition there'll be no easing into it, as close to knock out in every game as has been.

Pleased with our group when you see some of the other groups.

Con Magees & Tir Na nOg will give their fill and wont be easy to beat, thats for sure. Rossa will be tough, esp if the game is in their back yard.

Group 3 is def the one you didnt want to be in.

Div 1 Predictions:

moneyglass v dunloy - Going to go AP's Donkeys by 3 (Shock of the evening)

Cargin v Aghgallon - Swamp men by 1 - Think The lurgan Reserves although in good form will still be hungover celebrating Armaghs Ulster title

LD v St Bridgids - City Mountain Men to beat up the prawn sandwich brigade and then win the football - LD by 4

St Johsn v Glenravel - Not enough Midges in corrigan to fuel the glensmen. Nugents Thugs by 7

St.Pauls v Ballymena - 2nd worst team on Shaws Road by 4 - The shams have Stewart back but alot injured

Creggan v Rossa...... unhappy travels for the Rossa men, creggan 12+

Portglenone v Sarsfields - Cant Buy a C'ship (although Bannside disagrees) will spank the Bear Tits by Double digits

TNN v St Galls - Blue on Blue - TNN need points - Galls cruising - Think Galls by 8, pulling away towards end

....LD, PAULS and Johnnies was a mile off my predictions. Knew Moneyglass and dunloy would be tight enough affair. Got Cargin, TNN, Casements and Kickhams all nailed.

Bad night for Shaws Road. Be three teams in the relegation mix

[BigGreenField]

Not far off needing to have bonus points for teams losing by less than a certain amount of points.

It's league etc etc but some of the score lines an indictment in themselves.

Casements have conceded to St Galls. Dermot McAleeses stag weekend in Galway...big crowd away to it.

I think he was just giving context and information, if you ain't bother then don't bother posting. Being a dick about isn't a good look though

Great win today for the Saffrons. Further signs of obvious progess in our grade. Well done to all involved.

Didnt get to game but a solid win from what I've heard. Home games are very valuable in this competition.

Who stood out?
