McKenna Cup 2024

[Armagh18]

Handy enough win for Cavan, Armagh with only 1 score in the 2nd half (a fine goal it was). I especially enjoyed the Armagh commentary team who  basically reckon Armagh lost because they made too many subs at HT 

10 subs was it? Disappointing not to win but sure all about getting miles in the legs at this stage of the year. See ye in Ulster hopefully Itchy!

Very tough conditions to play in this evening, still good to get the win for Cavan. Are semi finals this weekend? Neutral venues?

Good first half which set up a potentially enjoyable second half
Armagh made 10 subs at half time and 4 more during the  second half .
Disappointing to pay £10 for this tbh
But tbf young guys training hard deserve a run out
Was surprised at Cavan as would have thought they might have made more changes , Galligan we know is a great keeper but if I was the reserve I would be kinda peeved at not getting on and indeed it took Martin Reilly to get injured to be subbed off.

Oh I'd say ye made 20 subs at Half Time and Cavan made no subs at all. And the spine of our 1st team - Faulkner, Gearoid McKiernan, Conor Brady and Paddy Lynch were all playing despite not being there. Hopefully weather be better in the summer for the big one

Alas itchy Ulster is now relegated to getting the teams ready for Sam and the Talteann
Strange but true

Near sure I saw Big Joe Kernan with the boots on as well think he got a run out. Yeah hopefully be needing the suncream that day! (If we get over Antrim) 

[Westside]

Decent run out for Cavan, Armagh probably not as competitive overall as Antrim but great to get game time into so many debutantes. Armagh have a lot of talent, if they could convince Graham to take the reins when his time is over with Cavan I firmly believe they could be contenders in Ulster.

Tyrone Vs Down
Derry Vs Cavan

Assuming these aren't televised on TG4? Thought I remember Armagh Monaghan being on last year, maybe it's just the final they could show.

Another paid stream it is probably.

That wasn't a bad old game in the end between Derry and Tyrone. Tyrone at least looked a football team, unlike last year's McKenna Cup. Poor decision making at key moments in second half cost them the win, there were plenty of good chances to put Derry away. Comeback will be good for Derry's morale I'm sure and it was a towering point at the end to level. Camera didn't follow the incident that led to Hampsey going off so can't comment on that. Disappointing to see a red card as Tyrone's disciple has to be better this year, but again can't say if it was the right call.

Clearly both teams have a way to go and men to bring in - not a performance from either to worry the likes of Dublin, Kerry or Down - but a useful tussle and good to have at least one more competitive game to come before the league.

Remember the days we used to give off about paying a monthly sub to Setanta to watch a few NFL games, now we throw out £5ers and £10ers (& more) to watch club & county. The GAA is more expensive than Sky & BT combined.

Hopefully not on at the same time

I was flicking between the 3 games tonight...you end up missing more than you see!

Although it has to be said...it is a fantastic service from Ulster GAA
