Standard of podcasts in Antrim very poor as well

I see what you've done there. And you'd be right. Be don't assume I'm Solo n Go podcast.

To be honest, its more like I told you four or five years ago that PG1 had a good coaching set up and that in the future their senior teams will be consistently challenging amongst the top teams and that opinion is still firmly on course. Work in progress. I also said the next generation coming through will be better coached and prepared than our current set up, which whilst a good bunch, still seem to find a way to underperform when it matters.

That includes last year's county final which went to extra time, whilst plenty to like about the display, reverted to stupid wastefulness that was ultimately their downfall in a game that was there for the taking.

Though this year never remotely hit those heights at any stage for some reason. It happens!

not sure about that, Moneyglass are playing the league winners.
Sars have lost once this year, to Moneyglass
Moneyglass have lost twice, to Sarsfields (and to glenavy when the league was over)
Both teams have a win each and a draw in their 3 meetings this year.
Has to the most 50/50 game ever.

Coin toss of a game if ever there was one, two very decent sides. I assume that means Moneyglass are promoted already because Sarsfields are already up? (if the leagues dont change)

The current Portglenone juvenile stack are very well coached with efficient and high energy play, if they can mature to senior they are a collective very good prospect.

Sure they'll probably choose to keep a team up instead knowing how the county goes.

I'd back MG for this one though. Having seen both teams play I'd say MG are the better team/footballers whilst Sars are a bit of brute force

Intermediate Final meant to be 7pm in dunsilly on Saturday the 11th

Biggest game of the year for both teams and it's under lights. Neither team has played under this year. Silly if u ask me.

The Paddies are a fine team. That young lad McPeake with the glasses that plays at 5 is a cracking player.

Abit of sense here

There rest is nonsense for people who enjoy talking to themselves on different accounts

Paddies favs for intermediate before season started and they are a good team. It's a very hard one to call



A few boys  holding slips for  Sarsfields to win at 7/1 since May.

MG were 4/1.

Apologies, I'd only seen it week before championship started


...definitely excellent value @ 7s

SoloAndGo

Great value at 7s alright but won't make a difference. MG too strong and powerful throughout the team.

Saffsof82

Having played against both mg and sars this season I'd have to sat Sarsfields are the stronger set up, more physical and cynical than mg which will count in the heavier conditions this time of year
