All is going well in the Glenarm Rovers camp i feel it may be possible for us to achieve back to back league titles but i dont want to count my chickens as we still have alot of hard fixtures to play and there are still loads of points up for grabs and there is a lot of good teams all around the top close togeather. But i do think this Glenarm Rovers team can do wot no Glenarm team has done before and make the 1st division. I think our team is first division standard and can compete at this level week in week out but as i have said there is still a long way to go and anything can happen from now untill the end of the season.

I definetly wouldn't get too excited yet. You're results against the teams at the top of the league this year have been far from impressive. Wins came at the expense of lesser teams and to win this league the wins need to come against teams like Glencloy, Abbeyview and Riverdale...I'm not sure if you have beaten any of these teams?? Being a diehard rovers fan I just don't want to see you get ahead of yourselves....trust me there is nothing I want more than to see the rovers win the second div and then go on and win the 1st, but you have to play every game like it matters...because it does!!! UP THE ROVERS

rovers have beat riverdale and abbeyview but were beat by glencloy but never deserved anything out of that game.also silly points droped with a draw against seven towers,randlestown and were beat by braid!only half way through season so long way to go and rovers will def need there full squad with hastings and mccosh now training with larne and not available for every game.

Hardly think silly points were dropped against us Roversno1.....we gave you two goals that mornings......keeper errors. All in all I thought a draw was a fair result that morning. Plus a long way to go and with some teams adding strength to their squads, I think some surprises will happen. |

One of my last games for Broadway Celtic i#m pretty sure was against Glenarm in the cup, which you went on to win in extra time! Have to say i was very impressed with the team you sent out that day and am confidant you would survive in the first!! As for winning the second there are a few strong sides in there who might have something to say about that!! Sould be a good contest!!
As for Bremner, would you stop picking on folk as you are scaring them away.....poor wee Pughole!!! lol

yous have a good side bremner but glenarm were 4-2 up with about 20min to go and ended 4-4 so rovers were prob the more disapointed with the draw although both teams had chances to win it.if glenarm go up it would take another couple of good signings to make a real impact in div 1.

You did say that you think your team is 1st div standard and can compete week in week out. There is a big difference between the 1st and 2nd division. Glencloy stayed up in their first season but only just. Last season they really struggled. You have a good side but you will need all your players available in division 1. |

Absolutely brillant lads...wish I had off been there to see you lift the cup!!! Definietly got close there at the end with a couple of teams hot on your tails but in the end the deserved team won. Hopefully the team stays together for the 1st and maybe even works a little bit in the summer to get a good start to the league. Maybe someday I'll be helping you in the 1st!!
Congrats
