Armagh v Down - DOWN 4-2 on penalties
Donegal v Tyrone - TYRONE by 2

I almost hope it does go to penalties to see how Armagh cope with that.
But, to be fair, I think they'll have too much for Down, though I don't think there'll be that much in it.
As for Donegal v Tyrone, can't see Tyrone doing it. 2 years ago Donegal were narrowly beaten by Derry in the Ulster final. They had a blip last year with management issues, but they are getting back to where they were. Tyrone on the other hand, seem to be slipping back and I'm not convinced by the management team. I'd imagine Donegal won't be as "up" for this match, but I still can't see anything other than a Donegal win here, maybe even a comfortable one at that.

Who's the ref in both games?

Does sitting on a train, travelling through a country but not setting foot on it, count?
Or transitting through an airport?

I'll leave out flying over its airspace!!

Aye, technically you had both feet  in the country.  As well as the rest of ye 

Airspace, nah.

How about if the plane lands, but you do not get out?

Some in Cork now questioning the value Horgan and Lehane bring to the team.

Pat Ryan under a bit of pressure this weekend

Can understand the level of criticism of the Manager but to call out two players who are just there because they are picked is a bit much.

Obviously no younger talent bursting down the door to take their place.

I am no fan of Cork either.

Is Harnedy in there also this year?

Cork are so inconsistent. What Cork will turn up?

No, no, no. You're only allowed say that about Galway. Other teams just face challenges of various severity.

Everyone bar Limerick is Galway now

Puthrid - Waterford
A gutless shower -Cork
Pure fuckin usheless - Tipperary
They threw it away -kilkenny
Watcb them f**k this up again -Clare
In the name of Jaysus - Galway

Whatever the opposite of cute hoorism is, a lot of Armagh fans on this board have it in abundance.

Its called giving an honest opinion. 

Armagh to win by 7 and Donegal to win by 8 this weekend.
