Antrim Hurling

Don't over-react now mr2 with the flogging - the quote has only had a few posts - less than half a page.
As you say yourself that quote holds no water - pretty much what the point we were making.
I'm sure it won't be lost on PJ.

I think its you that is overreacting to a quote, and why would PJ get annoyed about it? I didn't think you would be hung up on something in the papers.... Must have been a poor news week for that to get any ink..

Anyway lets see how the season starts after Xmas

No problem with what he said at all, in fact he should be commended for being honest with his plans how many players have come on panels then dropped off out of the blue even though they have known their plans from the outset. CJ has been pretty open and the management have accepted that, fair play.

Is there any idea where the Cushendall Sarsfield match will be played on Feb 6th?

No venue yet. Probably be after Xmas before its known.

Never raised an issue with his plans.
PJ might just "help" his decision to go travelling.

Interesting article in the ATN today (not often one can say that).
North Antrim Report blaming city teams for not fulfilling fixtures - Rossa objected strongly and an apology has been issued at the behest of Joe Edwards it would seem.
My question would be why that false claim was ever in the report to start with?

Antrims Xmas party this Saturday night. It's a wonder the big man is aloud in anywhere after his antics a few weekends back.

There was something up on twitter last week about that

I think the fixtures issues are more relevant in the the B juvenile leagues

There is a separate issue in regard to fixtures in July and August. City juvenile teams to a large degree go awol.

You would wonder how we managed to win the u16 and minor hurling leagues this year....

Joe Edwards spoke about this at convention and claimed to have all the evidence with him for anyone to look at, showing the claim to be false in all juvenile leagues. He wasn't challenged on this.
It seems that there are certain individuals in NA who are pushing to have city teams removed from "their" leagues and this myth is their way of bringing it about.

I spoke to a south Antrim board member about this - it's a nonsense claim.
Skull trying to validate it reveals as much as the original report.
Grown adults can't see their own childish prejudices.

btdtgtt ... Wtf did I validate?... please put in print what you've read 'between the lines' of my post?

(Grown adults can't see their own childish prejudices) . Irony right there

And HS ... Its seems ... it seems ..... the paranoia knows no bounds and is indeed not grounded in fact. I for one have never heard anything of the sort mentioned, so take a chill pill in that regard. Most clubs want games and there could be gripes when some clubs don't show the right amount of enthusiasm to get them played as others. As I've said, more of an issue in the B leagues. The Antrim website will back it up.

The totally separate issue of clubs going awol in July and August is something that should be approached. Something wrong with bringing it up?

considering the absentees they are indeed good results. Hopefully they can keep the good form going against Laois in the new year.

[imtommygunn]

Watson scored 2-5, clarke 2-4 and johnston 1-4 against down. Hopefully can be a prolific forward line.

Skull your posts tried to mitigate the issue.
What was printed in black and white in the NA report was factually untrue.
And proven to be so.

U tried to bring in lower leagues as a mitigation - firstly that's not what was printed in the report - and secondly I see no evidence of city teams more at fault there either.

Just take a step back - don't try bring any half baked justification in - the report is wrong.

Once you do that - you ask the question as to why it was felt a slant against city teams was needed?

So yes - it was childish prejudices.
The report should have congratulated the winners - funny that!
