Antrim Hurling

[Minder]

And don't forget Rossa travel to Glenarrife in the 1st of two div2 deciders.
Any opinions to offer on this one HS or minder?

We have 9 players on a foreign stag do that are not home until Saturday evening, tried to get the game put back a few hours but couldn't. We will be pushing it to get 15 to field. So it will all be on the game at Rossa.

On a side note and a different thread, put your money on K Drayne for the football final, I hear he is the latest member of the Illuminati in the corridors of power, and for those that need a bit of direction that's above a KNIGHT! Jesus this new Stadium is bringing them all out of the woodwork!

Should have listened to you mibag! Would have been long odds.

U must keep ur ear close to the ground 

If my prediction proves correct, I fear that this game with the mix and whats at stake may be beyond him and his teams ability, but sure as x head of Antrim assessors his performance should be exemplary shouldn't it? I call it as I see it, and I hope it doesn't come down to the Referee and his inability to control the game and deal with the incidents as they may arise in such a charged environment, there will be plenty  of incidents off the ball as there always are, its just I feel he may lack the experience in this dept! When two teams play football, the Referee should be oblivious in a game, but the Ibrox lads will want to get at St Galls and disrupt their style, whether he and his totally inexperienced team of umpires can control and manage all this has to be seen, but hopefully we will get a good hard and entertaining game of football if that exists!

Football thread please!!! Oh and off the ball tactics will only do so much in fairness

Well whats the thoughts on the weekends games then, Loughgiel to pull up winning by 8 or more, the other to be very close and low scoring I would imagine the LG pitch is getting heavier by the day. Doesnt overly suit either team.

Whats the odds on a draw 

[NAG1]

Think it will be a tight contest and the conditions of the weather seem to be backing this up.

Getting the excuses in early Minder, with what is at stake for both clubs these two games are massive. Glenariffe's consistency against Rossa's great run since replacing managers, it's a very difficult one to call. Rossa also have another game after these two? I'm going to favour Rossa due to the boost they will receive from young McGuinness returning.

Shamrocks minus 7...worth a gamble ?

[btdtgtt]

McGuinness did not play in the last game against Randlastown Cityslicker - Hamill was out injured also and players away at college? Shed any light HS?
Thats said if Minder is not playing mind games it would be difficult to see Oisins replacing 10 players? I have sympathy for Glenarife if this is the case - I was in the caravan waiting on the original fixture to be played.
Basically the year boils down to this game, and if Rossa win the next one also.
Hopefully they are fitting of the season.

Will count for nowt in the end I fear, I believe there is a change on the way!!!!

How is it mind games ? They won't be there, at least 7 of them are starters. They went today and dont come back until about 5.30pm on Saturdy evening, the match is at 3pm. They had it booked a long time ago as there was no fixture set for this date. I was confident of us beating Rossa at home with a full squad but as it is we will most likely get hammered.

Thats cat Minder - especially since its a re-fix. If you are right about the result it will make for some game at Rossa the following week!
Whats the change MR2 - league restructure?

McGuinness played at the weekend in the 7's for Rossa and as far as I am aware is definitely back for the rest of the season, HS?

None,  except a possible SHC Semi-Final

Do you not have a county convention to decide these things?
