Quote from: yellowcard on Today at 04:35:37 PMQuote from: screenexile on Today at 02:11:22 PMOn the actual game I think it'll be a snoozefest much like Tyrone Donegal/Armagh Down. Armagh will have to play the same way they did against Down and hope that the forwards they have will play better than Donegal's. I think they just about have the better players but there will be vey little in it.
Bookies with a 1pt handicap aren't usually too far wrong!
This is what Donegal would love us to do. Play the game on their terms and reduce it to an arm wrestle that ends up as another game of nerves in the last 5 minutes since they are the masters at this type of game. If we are looking for a template then go back to the 2022 championship when we played them twice.
The first time we sat back and engaged in a defensive arm wrestle that ended in a comprehensive defeat. We drew them again in the qualifiers and went more front foot, high energy, gung ho type game and we inflicted a heavy defeat on them. The latter is the template for beating them on Sunday. Press all of their kick outs since they have an untested goalkeeper or even if Patton is fit to play he will not be in top shape. Kick plenty of ball inside as I think they are weak at defending one on one in their full back line. Plus we have the ball winning personnel to cause them trouble. If we play a hard running game of containment it plays to the strengths of Donegal and reduces the game to a long range point kicking contest and a game of nerve.

Well, a lot of people here are all for the cultural enrichment we get from open borders. Vile, I know, but there you have it...

Quote from: NorthAntrim on Today at 04:09:52 PMIf we can press in the forward line like Wexford did, force the galway defence into mistakes, theres no reason why we cant give them a game too.
Obviously Dublin first, cant wait to see if we've a bit about us or did we catch wexford on a very off day

Is anything ever not 'mad' in that fellas head, brief respite from illegal I suppose
Maybe one day he'll say madly illegal and his head will explode
Ironic of course the same fella swerved a drug test, both illegal and mad
Man city are getting the all clear by all accounts. The FA are just stalling as to how they can back track out of the whole mess without pissing off loads of fans
