Nearly a clean sweep bar the Carey win.  Surprised how easy cushendall beat St. John's. Massive difference between intermediate and senior shown again.

Great win for the camogiers who are going well too.

RIP Sean McGuinness, a mighty man and a complete gent.

To echo what's been said, a hurling man to the core, was speaking to one of the sons on Saturday and it wasn't looking good, condolences to the family and his extended family at Sarsfields. Will be one voice I'll miss giving me some abuse!!

Sad news..

Used to travel with Sean to county training in my university days.. Some man for a story and was some craic but was always the boss..

Never forget the night I'd got into his car after we'd been beaten by Tipp in a NHL game in Thurles and he'd obviously gotten wind of most of the team being in the nightclub behind Hays hotel the night before..
My ears were ringing that night and one of the worse training sessions followed I'd ever had.

Condolences to the McGuinness family but they can be very proud of him, a man of his word.

I thought there might have been some reference to Sean's passing on the Antrim Twitter account but not a word on it

[imtommygunn]

It was on their facebook account.

I'm not on Facebook so didn't see it

It is great to see another club wanting to grow, but is there not a wider question needing to be asked when we are seeing more and more clubs amalgamating up through the ages groups. Clubs that would be considered to be well established clubs and cant even get 15 of their own kids out to field a team?

does this not exacerbate this specific situation even further?

The work is just not being done at underage to keep young people interested. Based on the Belfast population alone there should be far more clubs, not less.

Then why are there so many amalgamated clubs at underage level?

It's the lazy solution. The work is not being done at underage to keep them involved so they lose them. Then they amalgamate to field teams. It's shameful and rarely called out as it is. The schools and population is there!

Was sorry to hear this news. Good memories of the late 80s and early 90s when the Ulster Hurling Championship returned and gave us some great games and really grabbed attention for a while. McGuinness was a big part of that. Thoughts with his family.

Looking like a big win for st endas.

Looking like a big win for st endas.

Ballycastle away to hell & on the hook for an expensive enough managerial ticket this year too

[breakingball]

Rossa and Dunloy to Semis

Loughgiel v St Johns
Cushendall v St Endas

[imtommygunn]

Loughgiel St. John's a good one. I doubt that is an expensive managerial ticket.
