4 Welcome to the Toals Co Atrim Shield Fial Good eveig. I hope that you all had a swift ad safe jourey to Ballymea Showgrouds for the fial of the Co. Atrim Shield betwee the two most successful teams i NIFL i recet times Crusaders ad Lifield. I would take this opportuity to thak Ballymea for hostig this years fial agai! Norther Irelad football is hampered by a lack of grouds that ca host a cup fial; with the Natioal Stadium prohibitive due to its cost; so we are oce agai idebted to Ballymea. I also wish to thak our sposors Toals, who have bee a great support to the Co. Atrim Associatio. We all are aware that good sposors are difficult to fid, yet are crucial to clubs; leagues ad divisios, as well as the IFA, so we very much appreciate their support. Fially I wish to commed the work of Adam Simpso, the ew Co. Atrim secretary who follows i the footsteps of may great Associatio secretaries ad I ca oly hope that he remais i the positio for may years to come. Sice the Milleium, Lifield have appeared i twelve fials Crusaders have appeared i six followed by Gletora ad Ballymea. The wiers, Lifield, versus the wiers Crusaders. What a fial! I the semi-fials I saw Crusaders overcome a very strog ad ambitious Lare 1-0 at Seaview ad if truth be told they were more comfortable tha the scorelie suggests. The it was up to the Showgrouds where Lifield were i commad agaist the home side, who had several players missig; but as the sayig goes, you ca oly beat what s i frot of you. Both teams are strivig to be League champios; both teams are havig a great seaso. Saturday, 19th Jauary saw oly oe goal separate the pair. Both teams have very strog paels to select from, ad I am sure that David Healy ad Stephe Baxter will, as usual, have their teams well prepared, as both have a huger for trohies. I expect that this will be aother tight game, ad I hope a etertaiig oe. The Irish League Show, Fial Score, ad the BBC Friday ight games, have show some crackig goals this seaso, ad may supplied by players from both these teams, so my hopes are that we see some toight agai. The Co. Atrim Shield is a log established trophy ad has bee lifted by may great captais, ad I kow that whichever oe holds up that famous Shield at the ed of toights game will have eared it.
