MR2 Loughgiel missed a few goal chances before the penalty, which was a penalty btw, as well you know.

Look if I thought it was a penalty from where I seen it then I would have no problem in saying it was. Makes no difference to me who won. Said already I backed the -1 score. I just didn't see it though. Cushendall could have had a goal or two. DD turned his back on the one Shane hit, could have went anywhere really.

Judged on today's performance though I can't see how they will score 20 plus points needed to win against the 'big teams'

Must send you the DVD MR2 which shows DD standing up to Shane's shot, saving it with his stick and putting it out for a 65. Maybe you saw it different from the camera
Sure Milltown, did you not spend most of his time in the bar with some high profile SF mates and the like . Most likely he did not see the best part of the game. Sure was'nt I in casement social club at the time also!!!!

Martin Scullion changed the outcome of the game in my opinion, and Barney McAuley's point immediately after Watsons goal was a complete cracker! Loughgiel I think overall deserved their win. Are Cushendall to be the next Loughgiel and have a constant run of county final lossess??? 2 in a row no for them!

Goal seemed to wake Loughgiel up all right. Can't remember Martin Scullion touching the ball before it! Midfield was where Cushendall should have cleaned up. Was surprised at them keeping Magill in the corner as he didn't see nearly enough ball as he should. Big ask for KMK and AD

Magill switched to midfield with between fifteen and twenty minutes to go. That's when he scored the point (or two points) he got. Definitely he was more in it when in midfield.

Looked a stone wall penalty, though I thought cushendall should have been awarded frees in the build up to points number 6 and 14

Why did paddy McNaughton not start

Yeah thought that was a strange one too, he has far more hurling in him than a few of those Cushendall forwards.

It's funny what you think you see at the time. I could've swore the keeper brought him down. I was wrong. Still a definite penalty though.

So think how hard it is for the referee!! But sure, be Ballycran then you'll meet in the final. Tight for a period the you should beat them handy in the end.

Derry champs will be know walk over!!

Milltown Row2 · September 26, 2011, 10:51:21 PM

No they won't but they won't be as good as Cushendall!!

Ballygalget the last team outside of Antrim to win the Ulster championship, be a while before it happens again for a non Antrim team to wins

I said with 11 mins to go this is C'dall's to lose and they duly obliged. They had put themselves in the position to win and just stopped playing from the penalty onwards. Maybe after the postmortem we will get the theories of the C'dall posters. In my opinion they have thrown away 2 in a row.

Cushendall seeking to get the shamrocks record, five beaten finals in a row!! be tough now

We've thrown away a few ourselves. What goes around comes around!
