St Pat's played well in the first half with the forwards moving well. The forwards seemed to lose their way in the second half and played with no cohension. Midfield struggled for much of the match but the defence was first class throughout. Both teams showed good discipline, there were no real incidents throughout. Have to say I've watched a fair amount of football and I don't think I've seen a better performance from a CHB than Ciaran McKeever delivered yesterday. Micky Murray was excellent throughout as well.
Sets up a clinker tie with Cross next Sunday.
Keep your pecker hard and your powder dry and the world will turn.

Sure the pick of them teams wouldn't worry Cross. I'll be happy enough if we keep it kicked out to them.
As I dream about movies they won't make of me when I'm dead

Your a laugh TAC. St Pats will be going at it for the win. It will be a tough game and if there are a few points either way that will be the most.

For once I agree with BC1 - This is a difficult game for cross. One I expect them to come through but they will def have to earn it

winsamsoon

Fancy Cross by at least 6 points and maybe two or three sent off. Other game i fancy Granemore by 2 or 3
I never forget a face but in your case I will make an exception.

Think Cullyhanna will give Cross plenty to think about and will no doubt lay into them. Definitely be worth going to see 30 hatchetmen going at it. Would near fancy a draw. Think Dromintee will squeeze past Granemore, last year will be fresh in their memories and also because BCB says its their year.

I take it B football has finished for the year?

cross have played lot of championship in the bridge over the past few years and never once complained . Just goes to show the difference in class between them and their upcoming opponents

Not too hard to work out where your from so you would know alot about "class"!! 

I actually think playing in the Bridge will be good for cullyhanna-it might be a bit of a ground leveller as on paper Cross obviously have the far superior team.

St Pats will have to drag the Rangers down a couple of levels to even compete with them!!

Is that really the case?

There are two stand out players in this game - one on each side. McKeever for Cullyhanna and Clarke for Cross.
Cross have one of the worst ball winning midfields in the county - Cullyhanna can compete with anyone there.
Cross have an advantage in paul McKeown as a specialist man marker that cross don't possess. the rest of the cross defence are good solid defenders as cullyhanna's are.

Cross will end up with about 40% possession around the middle as they did against harps so the question is if there is enough potency advantage in the cross forward line over cullyhanna's to make up for the lesser supply.

expect Jamie clarke to get the treatment and get it often
