Loughgiel looking to wipe memory of six consecutive lost finals

To lose a county final, at any level, is a huge blow, especially when your club has been in the doldrums for a while; to lose two, devastating, surely. To lose six, then, and to lose those six in succession, how must that feel? How do you come back from that?

That is exactly what happened to Liam Watson and his Loughgiel Shamrocks team-mates, six Antrim senior hurling finals lost from 2003 to 2008 (inclusive), and yet - fair testament to their resolve - come back they did.
