Antrim Hurling

[getevennotcross]

again ignoring our resident board WUM lunatic.

especially after last year no one is looking any further than trying to win an Ulster.

No sweat, do ur thing man.

[Sleeping giant]

Don't see Slaughtneil getting to the Ulster final, never mind beating Cushendall. I expect Ballycran to get to the final and to come up short against Cushendall. The Dall are a much better team than they are being given credit for and won't be afflicted by complacency this year. Their second half recovery on Sunday was a marker for how good they can be. I think that they will prevail in Ulster and could Spring a surprise or two beyond that.

Don't underestimate any team come championship, did last year and last Sunday not teach us anything at all?

As for an All Ireland crown, time well tell!

"Forest, life is like a box if chocolates, you just dont know what your going to get".  In this case who?   S-neil or Cran dont view them as invincible opponents, thats fore sure. 

But I'm biased of course and referred to as a 'bitter one'.  Well' I prefer a realistic one, because history tells me so.

S-niel could surprise and impress just like last few years. Is such a statement volatile, provocative and offensive to some? Well, to the known few maybe!

OOooh, a specisl one one, not  like you Loghguille men to be so humble and complimentary, asthonishing!

  Well, taking my leave for a few weeks heading overseas to tropical climbs, take care pilgrims and remember, some dodgy characters about this forum, dont say you have not been warned.  Jekyl and Hydes, Jekyl & Hides.

Congratulations to Cushendall on Sunday. There appearance in 9 of the last 11 finals stood to them in the 2nd half. Their experienced players like McGill, Carson, Graffin and McManus really stood up when needed. Great 1st half show by Ballycastle. The blocking, hooking and hassling was top notch. Hopefully the players come back strong next year and learn from the experience.

On a sour note I see Dunloy couldn't prevent it from being windy either!!!

Can you imagine how windy it would have been in Ballycastle?? That wind turbine would have made some electricity that day!!

It's either "disgusted with" or " on a sour note" with Fairhead.  Like I said the last time he posted on this subject and chose to ignore it.  Yes, it was windy, but not all the time.

why your club hasnt thought of building a wind turbine farm around the ground is amazing with the wind at your ground  lol

We must of run of wind in the second half cause it died off a bit for cdall. I actually thought that would work to Ballycastle's favour.

You know rightly SIE that my comments were tongue in cheek. And your exactly right its not windy all the time at all venues including Ballycastle.

[Na Glinntí Glasa]

even in a lower division we still manage to get 2 home games! lol

On paper we should have more than enough to win that, its the play off game which we would struggle in. Sigh, the depression of county hurling is back to haunt us lol

I see the junior and intermediate are on this weekend.

Anyone know how come keady are in the intermediate and middletown senior? They should both be senior in armagh so i'd have thought only one would be competing?

Creggan should probably get through but keady could be tough for them. Not sure how rasharkin will go but would expect they'll be there or thereabouts.
