Tomas and Mick are certs on anyone's team of the last 20 years, Kevin O'Bpyle a gent of a lad and a very good footballer, so he gets my vote also, the others that would be in or fighting for positions would be Close, Scullion, Justin and big Gerard..

Its not a 15 man game anymore, we have seen that this last 20 years and the team is only as good as its panel
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought.

James Laverty, Paul Veronica and Anto Healy were always dependable championship performers. Justy and Sean Kelly pick themselves.  Micky Johnston, Big Gerard and Eddie Quinn superb. Pollock has always been a dangerman. Niblock and Aidso have to be in there somewhere, Closey too. Karl Stewart always a thorn and the go to man when things needed sorted up front.   Honourable mentions to Terry O'Neill, Chris Kerr, Simon Kennedy, Mark McCrory, Jinny McNabb, Shane Devlin, Paul McCann and Gerard O'Boyle.

Don't see Agallon issue. 2 games in 5 days.

No mention of sympathy to dual clubs throughout the course of the year, 2 games possibly every 3 days.

Truth hurts

Would player welfare mean a 3 day bender in Belfast and being unfit to play LOL

Think most of the Aghagallon boys just want to get the playoff game out of the way and hopefully get any sort of win.. season has dragged on long enough.. league started far too early compared to other counties. 21 games in 7 months? Too many long periods without football or 3 games in 9 days, always one of the two.

The game should have been played before the championship started. Aghagallon sure to be fatigued after sunday and Ballymena have been twiddling their thumbs for the past 6 weeks. No good for either team.

It doesn't give Ballymena any chance to succeed

Think a 20 year old Kevin Doyle would have made any team......

Unfair on both teams to be fair but I just want to get it out of the road now so I'm sure the players are the same. They can get on with their off season and enjoy a bit of well earned rest. Hopefully we have picked ourselves up and get over the line.

It's great though. We are getting to see games from other counties as well that you'd have never got to see. The cost soon adds up though all the same.

It's a lot cheaper than heading to the game, fuel, food, parking hassle weather... way that up to sitting on the sofa lol

Jerome on commentary is a good reason to give it a miss
