Ballyclare High School eased past Bangor Grammar 29-0 in Tuesday's re-arranged Northern Bank Schools Cup fourth-round match.

Campbell College's match, scheduled for Wednesday, has now been refixed for Saturday morning.

The Portora-Larne Grammar game will go ahead on Wednesday at 1200 GMT - weather permitting.

Pitch at Cranmore/Osborne looks great for tomorrow's Inst vs Banbridge game. Ground staff out again today cutting the grass. Looks like a nice fast pitch with plenty of zip!

Na na na na, na na na na, hey hey, Institution

[cheese]

I hope inst win just so MCB can destroy them again like earlier in the season.

[The Boo Radleys]

Hard to keep count but Inst 40+, Banbridge 3. Close enough for the first 15 minutes when Banbridge played really well, but lots of trys in the last quarter.

Have to admit feeling that that result doesn't suit our lads Gerry as no doubt the replay will be in Larne.....

I dont think so. . . I thought you may have edged it today but I really dont see you winning it in Larne, just been speaking to one of the guys and from what I hear it was a terrible match today and the conditions and pitch were awful! Larne pictch has never been bad in the 7years I went there, grounds saff eep it in excelent nick and always make for fast open rugby, which is how LArne play this year!

I remember playing on it two years ago and it certainly wasn't in great nick that day

And even if Larne do get through, which I think they will, they won't beat Regent

I spent my time at the grammar and the pitch was always long grass which suited the forward game. It has been in a bad way quite a few times.

I'm going to head to the game on Saturday I think, schools cup followed by six nations

Mary had a little lamb....

All depends on who your coach was, on the 4years I used the pitch it was always kept very short and was a very playable pitch!

Wouldnt be too sure about that, they played very early on in the season at Regent and I think the final score was something like 7-0 or 10-3 so it should be a very close game!


Check out the pic's of Bangor Ballyclare from Tuesday, the pitch looks in perfect order considering the weather the counties been having!
