Congratulations to Antrim and I suppose shameful is the best way Cavan's performance. Ulster's most successful county versus the "whipping boys" of the province certainly produced a fanastic game of football! Generally a clean game it served up some great attacking play and accurate point taking. Fermanagh could do well to take a leaf out of Antrim's book as regards taking points. Cavan's dream was shattered by no game plan to counter the Antrim forwards who won so many balls so again well done to Antrim!

Just like to congratulate you on reaching the ulster final. Niall Conway has got Antrim in great shape. He brought our club to the all ireland junior final in 2007, brilliant trainer.

Thats two games in a row we have played against all out defenses not interested in playing football.

At least we can take comfort in being the best footballing side in Ulster.

Or more aptly, the only one.

Jacknoff, I just read your post. Do you realise how ridiculous that statement is? Cavan cannot expect to win matches without a gameplan or any modicum of tactical awareness. Well done Antrim, its a great pleasure to see your county doing well and they have been exceptionally well prepared and drilled for the championship. Looking forward to a good game in the final between two footballing teams!

Hate to tell you jacknoff but Antrim outfielded Cavan, were able to move men and the ball at speed and take scores. What is this football you talk about - fifteen players standing in programme positions watching the game pass them by?
