By Shaun Casey ARTHUR Hughes paints a pretty simple picture when assessing Monaghan’s chances of staying in Division 3A with two games against Sligo and Cavan, both away from home, remaining. Win both, and they’ll make the league semi-finals. Win one and Monaghan will secure their status. Lose both and their fate will be sealed […]

Cushendall hurler Neil McManus was named Hurler of the Year at Friday night’s Gaelic Life Ulster Club All-Stars in association with McKeever Sports. He was selected from the Hurling Team of the Year as having been the player who was an inspiration on the pitch and is a tremendous ambassador for Ulster Hurling. This category […]
By Katrina Brennan THIS weekend, Fermanagh hurlers could, mathematically, book their place in the Division 3B final if results go their way. The Erne County need a win on home soil against Lancashire on Saturday afternoon but they’ll also need Leitrim to go to Longford and get a victory, if Fermanagh are to finish top and automatically qualify […]
I NOTED that more than 12,000 paying spectators attended the recent National Football League encounter between Armagh and Donegal, crowds that their hurling counterparts unfortunately can only dream of. Antrim will always get a core following of 500 or a thousand people, but on the whole crowds at hurling games involving Ulster teams are very […]
By Shaun Casey DERRY are expecting a difficult day at the office this weekend when they host London at Owenbeg in round three of the league. The Oakleafers have made a flying start to the season, collecting four points from their first two games. Johnny McGarvey’s side saw off Ulster rivals Tyrone and Donegal in […]
By Shaun Casey AFTER picking up one point from their opening two outings, Armagh head to Castleblayney this weekend in search of a first win, but their hosts Monaghan, who lost both their matches, are aiming for the same goal. Last year the sides clashed twice in the league, with each team chalking up a […]
By Shaun Casey MONAGHAN have a chance to bounce back from their recent defeat to Mayo when they host Armagh on Sunday, but the Farney County will still be sore from the last day out. Arthur Hughes’ side welcomed the Westerners to Castleblayney, the same venue they’ll host Armagh in this weekend, but were left […]
SUNDAY’S beating at the hands of Limerick was disappointing but I think the squad depth was the biggest concern for Antrim. There’s a lot of work going into the senior hurling team and I appreciate that, but ultimately as a county we aren’t putting enough effort into developing our underage teams and it all stems […]
