Surprised BBC asked the question of Ciaran Menagh if he would still be manager next week. Felt he gave a good reply in the circumstances

Commiserations to Armagh. Penalties a tough way to decide it.

So did RTE
Let no-one say the best hurlers belong to the past. They are with us now, and better yet to come

Joanne Cantwell with a stupid question to Ciaran Whelan about Conor Glass and Brian Fenton.

Better team won.

Draw was fair reflection in the 90 minutes whereby both had opportunities to win it. Whatever about other sports it's hard to warm to penalty shootouts in GAA especially in finals like today but what can be done in such congested season.  Derry will be favourites to top their group now, Armagh go in with Galway,Tyrone and neither at home.

Armagh lose it on the line?

Overly complicated game plan. They'd a 2 club wind advantage twice, with much better forwards to utilise such a wind, and were never urgent with it. You'd expect u14 club managers to drive forward in those circumstances. Especially when Derry's proven flaw is that they don't recover from big deficits

people saying provincials are alive because of one close final out of four these the same people who probably said provincials were dead a few hours ago.

The killer for me was the lack of urgency from Armagh in ET when they had a man advantage. They were playing the much better stuff since HT of normal time and Derry looked to almost be on the ropes - yet 1 point was all that Armagh got out of that period. They were too happy to let Derry keep the ball and waste time.

Armagh won't get a better chance than that. They're missing something.

A quality manager. Malachy ORourke or Jim McGuinness wouldn't  have allowed armagh  to be 2pts up with 4 to go and lose it. All this defensive nous yet left Morgan on McGuigan all day? Baffling but not surprising by Geezer and co.

Will never get a better chance.
