hell of a match to watch..finished 2-2.
for 40 mins in was nip and tuck, few chances at both ends, brian martin making one of the best saves ive seen all season..centre mid was 'physical' to say the least..great to watch.
then glenarm scored, won a ball in midfield, monty was released down the right who chipped to the big man to nod home.
1-0 half time.
second half, i we came out well, battled and battled, started to create abit down our right, da prato was super i thought getting fwd from right back.
we got a pen, handball..ryan lyness tucked it away.
our 2nd goal was agreat move on the counter, big tul released paddy, who put across a super ball for crilly to 'shin' up and over the keeper.
with 8 mins left i was thinking we have nicked this one.
not to be, glenarm got a free kick out wide, ball came in, bit of a scramble and monty toe poked it away..
last 5 mins saw a few more chances, glenarm prob thought they won it when monty hit a volley, right into the top corner direction only for the cat to save it, unbeliveable keeper.
all in all a draw as a fair result i think.
well done to glenarm, a good side.

Wee Roy will grow to be another class act, of that I've no doubt. You can only reach Brian Martins standard with experience and if the wee lad sticks at it and shows the dedication and ability he has in recent times he can go on to make a good name for himself.

Sammy foster imo probably biast but anyway is the best keeper to play in bsml...brian martin is brilliant and the best in leagues at the min but foster again imo is more vocal quick of his line and reads the game nearly like a sweeper. Have seen him kick into opposition 18 yard box from a by ball. How he never got a chance in irish league il never know...he made it to cliftonville but due to injuries he never got his chance in the first team. Captain of tobermore at the min but hear hes returning to bsml next season due to family commitments.
Was big cyril playing today lenny?

Wes Lamont was best to ever play in sml m8!No doubt Sammy is fantastic keeper though and it shows if hes captain at Tobermore.Also Herbie Linton is up there;)

yip, they had 3 in there, big cryil, and yer big man in beside him who was a beast..and johnny black..
that team we played today is a top 4 side IMO. no weak links in the 11 at all.

We beat Glenarm start of season and i couldt believe there results in the next month or two as they were super against us.
Great side with great players, im sure if they keep that side for next season they will be fighting out top four.

good match report lenny, a draw prob a fair result.
tight game and like you say your keeper made 2 of the best saves i have seen this season!! great keeper
we went 4-3-3 today as we knew yous were strong in the middle and was sum battle in there, that is big ian along side johnny and cyril, ian was class today, loves the physical side of it and great in the air, very strong, just has to work on his passing.
monty was another great asset, just signed last week, the other signing beanie was unavailable today but hes a grat player too, was moyola captain at start of season.
we had a really bad start to season hence our league position,we have no chance of getting top 4 now.
your big man paddy is hard work! thought yous should have started crilly uptop, lyness and tully in there are good. the pen was harsh too?

Niall has a dodgy knee so surprised he played, he said himself on friday night he only signed as he couldn't commit elsewhere and would only play if ye's where stuck. Hence why he didn't sign for ballymoney after training for a wee bit - got some very bad manners from mr McCall when he said 'no'...! Good player all the same.

yea ball did hit has hand but he was on ground and it was hit at him from 2 yards, and nothing he could do, sum refs would give it and others woudnt though if it happend the other way there no chance mccaulley would of given us a pen but thats footy.
yea beanie was up training with ballymoney but i think it was the travelling put him off and he wasnt enjoying his football. he has never said his knee was sore to me, and has been training away, didint play yesterday as he was attending a funural but he should be playing in all the rest.
you out rest of season lenny?

he should be straight in next week, yea good point though neither team played great football, was more physical battle, and we porb created more chances so happywith the draw as we were 2-1 down but we could have won it really.
