Good discussion lads,great to see as both these counties dont always get much airtime on national outlets. All depends on attitudes for next Sundays Qualifier. Antrim should be on a high,whle Fermanagh can take some positives form the semie final versus Monaghan

Division Two is going to be tough next season, Armagh,Derry,Tyrone,Cavan,plenty of Ulster derbys,then Galway,Meath and Laois,alot will depend on how many home fixtures Fermanagh get but survival is possible

Speaking of jerseys, Creagh Concrete is actually in Derry, many assume it is in Antrim but it is west of the Bann.

I know that but it is in County Derry, look at it in google maps, the address doesn't matter, I don't know why border areas have different county addresses, something to do with the postal service maybe, sure it is across from Newbridge GAC a Derry club, it is the same with Bellaghy, they have Antrim addresses too but are west of the bann

What are you talking about - sure Bellaghy is in Antrim too. The battle of the Elk a number of years back was fought over the territory which lies over the new bridge and before Castledawson roundabout and a gather up of lads from Toome, Moneyglass, PG1 etc took on the finest Derry had to offer (t'was the night DJ Scooter played) and claimed the land for Antrim. With the cutbacks etc in Govt they never got round to redrawing the map but you can trust me on this.
