Armagh Club football & hurling

[billy the kid]

Any North, Mid South debate is nonsense.

To suggest S. Armagh clubs or any club throughout the county gives them an easy ride dosent make sense. What more can Lissummon, Belleeks, St. Pats etc. do?? What do you mean by suggesting they are doinf fcuk all compared to any other club in the county??
You are talking about competeing against possibly the most succesful club side in history.

The only answer is for teams where possible to compete and obtain success on a consistent basis. Not all clubs can do this ue to small populations, however in my opinion this is the only solution.

Armagh is no different to any other county in that realistiaclly there are only 3 or 4 serious challengers for senior honours each season.
The difference is that Cross have such an abundance of talent at present that this is going to be difficult to achieve.

Sorry to have to point this out but just wondering who the other 2/3 teams are that have been competing with Cross for senior county honours?

Making up the numbers is hardley competing.

Harps beat the Ogs in the minor champ 2-11 to 1-6.

anyword on the hurling finals?

[charlie stubbs]

cullaville beat tones by 3 points in the semi final of intermediate.

cullaville scored 2 goals in the 1st half went in 6 up at the break.  some very naive tactis from miceal magill cost us imo.  they had a very dangerous 2 man ff line and a lad of our just 17 got a complete roasting and still wasnt taken off.  injuries to johnny mccarron, ryan mcquillan and david heaney being on hoidays didnt help our cause. 

with around ten mins left we where 5 points down continually tried for a goal in hindsight if we took our points we could have won or possibly forced extra time.  had a great chance for a goal with 2 mins left same situation as last week however they buried their chance we hit the black spot. 

fair play to cullaville wish them all the best in the remainder of their championship, the better team won 2night, though if the bridge can get at their full back line they will get alot of joy

I'd say Cullaville is similar, their Primary School is also very small and I'd imagine Cross Primary gets a lot from Cullaville.

I would have thought that Clonalig school and the Cullaville club intake more or less overlap, except for one or two townlands on the boundary. Basically the area is better defined than Silverbridge, the Fane on one side and Cross on the other. Not a big school, so not a big pick.

And who says Armagh people aren't interested in hurling.... Who won the county final in Killeavy today?

[Uladh]

i'm reliably informed that keady won at a canter

[Harold Disgracey]

i'm reliably informed that keady won at a canter

Keady beat Middletown 5-13 to 1-11, a real game of 2 halfs, Keady were extremely lucky to be in contention at half time, Middletown did all the hurling. Keady blew them away in the 2nd half. Portadown beat Craobh Rua in the junior final 1-13 to 1-9, Portadown were up by 11 points at ht and just did enough to hold on against a game Camlough team.

I hear Cross are due to play an Ulster (railway cup) select on Wednesday night in the Athletic Grounds.  There are no flies on Cross.

It will be handy for the Harps to have a good look at them.
