Murphy got booed a few times for his frees but that's bog standard at this stage, I think he gets booed every game nowadays.

Congrats to Armagh. I thought they managed the game well but I disagree with the poster who said they made us look bad rather than us being bad. The 2nd half from us was one of the worst I've seen, going back to the embarrassing hammering from Galway in Rory Gallagher's last game.

If we had gone down fighting in a cracker (which it was shaping up to be), I would have been fine with Bonner staying on. But the players performance in that 2nd half says it all.

It was like watching some junior team, the way they were launching aimless balls in on top of Murphy from 20 minutes out, and him surrounded by five or six men. Even he had by some miracle won one and stuck it in, what then for the other six or seven points they needed? I doubt if Armagh could believe what they were witnessing.

Mayo were in a similar position yesterday, and ran out easy winners. Different attitudes and different management.
Honestly don't know what that was about. Was never gonna work with Rafferty in there anyway.

Was good for Armagh to win, they play decent football. Donegal are just far too negative and have been for a long time. If they won they'd have only been brutally exposed in Croke Park once again with their style of play.

There is an odd notion in GAA about booing. There are men of all ages and status who turn up at games club and county and verbally abuse everyone from the ref to the boy running the tuck shop, from start to finish. All sorts of language. Not an eyelid batted, even gets a few chuckles from those around him.

By Christ he'd better not boo anyone.

It's a boo ffs. Dry up.

Uhoh. Looks like we have a boo'er on the board. Mods?

Funnily enough, while being nice people, I always found Donegal fans to be the biggest booers against Mayo. Apart from the Dubs on the Hill obviously.

Always thought the same.

Loud & proud.
Without that strange apostrophe though.

Loud and proud?

What are you, 12?

What's it to you?

Just curious why someone would claim pride in booing amateur players.

Suggests immaturity to me.

At the game I only heard two incidents of booing. Both for poor refereeing decisions.


You can't be serious? A large number of our fans booed reguarly on frees etc. It was embarrassing.

A sour note on a fantastic showing from Armagh fans. Big numbers and loud, just wish we'd leave the booing at home.

In fairness Murphy earned a few boos for the way he was carrying on.

You do realise that people may say things on here that they don't really mean?

For example, I don't imagine that you often initiate internet chats with people you believe to be 12.

The discussion between myself and quit yo jibbajabba was not to be taken seriously.

I was totally serious 😉 on reflection i agree with you on the apostrophe tho 😃

I'm not saying there wasn't booing. Just wasn't particularly noticeable where I was in the Gerry Arthurs. My brothers family didn't notice it either and they were a section over.

I was on the hill and to be fair there was a lot of booing when Murphy was hitting frees. The ref got a couple as well.

Yiz are great booers though and I mean that as a compliment.
I wanna have my kicks before the whole shithouse goes up in flames.

Maybe they were all shouting Burns at Jarly Og?
