Lovely jubbly. Topped off with the wannabe hard man Rian O'Nell missing a pen!

If he'd burst someone's kidney you'd be salivating over him.

That onion bag was for you smicker! Atta boy Ciaran!

It's a stated opinion. He hasn't delivered in his time in charge. That's a fact .

It's childish attempt for some attention off Armagh supporters than "stated opinion" on how today's keenly contested encounter played out and in the end decided on a penalty shootout.

So you don't think Armagh should have won the game from a winning position? Sound.

No comment either on McGeeney's achievements during his time in charge. Silence tells me all I need to know. Hard truths

Birds of a feather, tr**p together?

First up, congratulations to Derry and the vast majority of their fans.
Brendan Rodgers is my favourite non Armagh player. What an athlete and just gets on with things
Gough done well.
We lacked composure and a killer instinct. Burns taking a fisted point instead of bursting the net at the end of the first half of extra time being a case in point. And was, IMO, the reason we didn't win.
Penalties. I hate them.
Again. Wel done Derry. Maybe we will meet again later on the year

ONeill

That was an exciting last 25 minutes. McGuigan really took the game by the scruff as did Glass when he was needed.
Always think Campbell will be a key player when he comes on, and rarely disappoints.
There's just something about Armagh when they have a game to win - always seem to look for a leader to pull them over the line and it's not there. Not far off though.

Much of the game was turgid. But I think we just need to expect to see that now when two good sides meet.
I wanna have my kicks before the whole shithouse goes up in flames.

Here what the f**k was the craic with that tr**p twisting McGuigans fingers??

Seems to have been mentioned a few times online. Why would that not be a red?

Maybe you should look at some of the off the ball antics of Derry.

In all honesty I thought the game today was a pile of crap with a few exciting bits. Armagh spent the league trying to get a defensive gameplan and Derry managed to get a scrappy goal and 3 fisted points. Add to that the lack of focus through league on forward play came to roost with bad wides and wrong options being taken. They need to go back to playing to their strengths. When a top forward they Cian Mcconville sits on the bench it suggests you are more concerned with not losing than winning.

I also detest penalties...probably because Armagh have been so bad at them. But have rules changed that keepers can charge off the line at each kick?

You seem obsessed with McGeeny.
What do you think he should have won?
1 Ulster's.  3 Ulster's.  2 Ulster's and a Sam?
What would you have considered success.

While you're at it tell me who should replace him

What antics were Derry at? The only thing I saw was McGuigan charging after the ball in the middle of getting treatment which wasn't great. Other than that I didn't see anything dirty from us!

Just saw Flynn and Keegan tell us Tyrone are still the team to beat in Ulster anyway so what even is the point of the Ulster championship?

Orior

Brilliant game but a disappointing result.

Half way through the second half I thought the best we could hope for was extra time. Armagh must have kicked twice as many wides as Derry. But that might be partisan thinking.

We pulled it out of the bag, only to let it slip back in.

I thought the ref was fair enough. He let the game flow and any mistakes evened out.

Derry should definitely have worn theor white with red hoop - that is probably what cost us the game  :-\

Armagh have had three penalty shoot-outs and lost all three. Should we have brought on a specialist keeper at the end?

Would any keeper in Ireland have saved Glass or McFaul's penalties? I don't think so.

Don't think any keeper in GAA or Soccer would have saved them.. 2 cracking pens

If anyone was guilty of off the ball it was nugent and oneill.
How armagh didn't get a black I  the first half too when cassidy was dragged down I don't know.

Derry would today without playing well.
If Armagh could beat us today given the week that has just gone by, I don't k ow if they ever would.
Still not seeing any grounds for the claims that armagh have better players.
