Big season ahead for the Spaniards of Antrim. New pitch, Glorious New Kit and a few fresh new faces (unfortunately Bugsy is still hanging about)
We played Newpark last week and it ended up 3-3. It was our first run-out of the season and the lack of match sharpness showed as we surrendered a 3-1 lead (If Bugsy was there we definitely would have lost)
We play Abbeyview on Thursday night and it will be the first opportunity for the fans to see our deadly new strikeforce.
(Hopefully Bugsy is working and cant make it)

Is there a bugsy theme to your post D ;D remember Bugsy was the only one who made an effort to get a spanish sun bed tan for the new kit.

Think he went a bit overboard with the tan! Him and Moagie look like a middle-eastern Jedward ;D Pitch is going to be great. Took a lot of effort from the committee! Looks a bit different from that 'forest' you said it was Davey

Well Tbf it was a forest. It's not now it will be a good job if it happens and I hope it does.

How did the Newpark team look, good set-up? Play well? Should be a team to be noticed?

They're a decent side. Watched them play a few times and they seem to have clicked very quick. So far in pre season they have drawn with us, Abbeyview, templepatrick and hammered Holywell. Think they'll do well. Willy Davidson has scored 11 goals already! Altho league games are a bit different to friendlies

Atletico 2 - 0 Abbeyview Great result tonight lads against a good Abbeyview side. They had a lot of posession but rarely threatened our defence. When they did threaten Kyle managed to pull off a few terrific saves. We kept chasing to the end and came away with the win. Hopefully Bootcamp will boost the fitness levels

A nice result indeed although it showed where we need to improve and specifically in certain areas. As for this training and pulling tyres and sh1t.....am looking forward to it ;D

Atletico 2 - 0 Randalstown
Another solid performance. We managed to keep it tight even with so many substitutions. A goal each for Henry and Flame..hopefully that's a sign of things to come. Good to keep another clean sheet too.
Bring on Mallusk.

I was told Athletico had registered the rugby club as their home ground, and the rugby club committee are furious

Donko, care to divulge where you obtained this info from??? Also who informed you about the registration or was it you that told the Rugby club based on the last league meeting? There's only 1 person that knows the exact details that was put into the Co Antrim website............... and that's me . So if you are on to stir up sh1te don't even bother trying. If you are concerned about our team then let me know who told you these stories. As for the rugby club.....I don't really care what they think ;D

As for the rugby club.....I don't really care what they think ;D I heard this from one of the leading members of the Rugby Club committee..... he was far from happy. I hope you arent accusing me of telling the Rugby Club Commitee about anything that happened at the League meeting, it certainly wasnt me, not my style, maybe you should look at who else was at the meeting before you start accusing me Weeman. I dont want to see any club in Antrim in trouble So, do you have a pitch for the new season?

Accusing you...no, but you certainly where in my top 2 ;D. That wouldn't happen to be the clubs secretary by any chance??? To be honest the Rugby clubs thoughts or actions don't bother me in the slightest nor do I give a flying f**k but its good to hear that that person is irrate.......especially when someone is feeding him a load of crap ;D
I did have a chuckle to myself when Monte was ready our fixtures and stating the Rugby club as our ground the other night.
Yes we do have a pitch which is in Allen Park beside the golf range.

I was the only person from Shore at the meeting, so we are blameless Must take a trip down to your new pitch, wonder what colour your nets will be

Post by Weeman on Jul 22, 2011 16:39:11 GMT
I think the nets will be orange................. They will be whatever colour the council have picked, so more likely white.
