Boys... clarify, whats this WUM business? if you think I am winding people up then I fear not I am only passing on my comments on what has and what will happen

Sammy you have to be a WUM?

Fermanagh had to wait 26 years for an Ulster Final, now we have 2 in a week. The first one was a warm up for Sunday, it took us a while to get going and to really get into the game but when we got going we outplayed and outscored Armagh and missed a bagful of chances.

This Sunday we won't make the same mistakes and will put Armagh firmly in the Qualifiers

Open hands, aimed at the ball, looks ok to me...

Croi - no issue with O'Rourke or Kernan, but Toner should not be involved in the play, his left leg is stopping Keenan move forward with the ball and Keenan knows he cannot turn in that direction to move out of the tackle and play the ball. This is another reason why the fans and pundits complain about the style of negative play. I realise Fermanagh also like to pack the defense but they do not have 3/4 men surrounding the player in possession on regular occurences on each attack... it should be clamped down on by the authorities and referees (tackling from behind is not allowed in the rule book) as this is not enjoyable to look at or play against.

[ARMAGH FOWL TACKLES]

ARMAGH FOWL TACKLES

pretty easy to spot the fowl tackle from behind... why didn't the ref? fair enough two men from the side or 1 in front plus one from the side but this type of tackling was going on by the Armagh players continually throughout the 70 minutes and should be stamped out of the game.

how is the player in possession supposed to play the ball when he is being mauled from all quarters? The GAA need to cut this out of the game!

Is the tickets out yet? whats the story on them? Hens teeth or whats the craic?

probably not even printed yet Onion Bag!

YeeeeeeeeeeeeHAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!! 

WE ARE GOING TO DESTROY ARMAGH ON SUNDAY!

I know we were div 3 and Armagh were in two but Fermanagh remain unbeaten in 70 minutes football in 2008 and this is a top achievement by any county's standards.

Armagh were outplayed and outclassed in the 2nd half after Fermanagh decided to go for broke...

This game will have got rid of the nerves and tension

Surely nerves was not a big factor?

NONE OF THESE FERMANAGH LADS HAVE PLAYED IN AN ULSTER FINAL, SOME NOT EVEN IN A FERMANAGH COUNTY FINAL. THE HYPE AND THE BUZZ IN THE COUNTY WAS FANTASTIC LAST WEEK

THERE WERE NERVES, IT WAS PLAIN TO SEE HOW THEY PERFORMED IN THE 1ST HALF WITH SOME BASIC MISTAKES AND SOME PLAYERS AFRAID TO MAKE MISTAKES, TAKE CHANCES OR LOSING THEIR HEAD A LITTLE.

IF THERE WEREN'T THEN THEY WERE EITHER NOT BOTHERED OR NOT HUMAN.

Everyone seems to think Fermanagh have missed the boat. I disagree. This game will have got rid of the nerves and tension and will allow the Erne men to lose the shackles and play the football they played in the last 25 minutes last Sunday for the full 70 minutes this Sunday. Armagh are nowhere near as fit as Fermanagh and will need to take another 8 point lead with less than 20 on the clock if they are going to hold on this weekend....

ARMAGH 1-10 FERMANAGH 1-13
