Armagh Club football & hurling

[Real1995]

Mullaghbawn are a poor poor side and surely are in contention for relegation this year.  Nearly all of their points were from placed balls and never looked a threat from open play.  The thing about Mullaghbawn is they drag any decent team down to their level.   I think in the second half Dromintee were 6 or 7 points up and I looked at the Mullaghbawn defence and they still had three forwards sitting back.  If Dromintee had of taken half their chances they would have been coasting at half time and would have won it easier than they did.

Bit early for relagating us yet Off the fence...Time will tell that story though.....

I am not doubting the matter that we are weak in the forwards line...its our big problem always was...Two of our most gifted forwards were missing yesterday...Eugene McVerry and Paul Kelly so when they return that should add a little scoring power......Our defense could hold there own with most teams to be fair...but they loss of Mark Quinn to Oz added to our two broken leg victims from last year who are unable to play this yearleaves us with a panel with not a great deal of depthl......One positive point however was Enda back yesterday, he did quite well when introduced

Clans game was probably a decent enough game to watch as it was exciting. A draw was probably a fair result  in the end but the clans should have been 10 or 12 points up at half time. They wasted several good goal chances and hit a few easy wides from frees. Cruppen lifted the intensity in the second half when they were playing with the breeze and into the club house. Dessie done ok in the middle until the last ten minutes when he gave Cruppen absolutely everything At one stage there was actually a clans player thrown out over the line and he gave a sideline ball to cruppen. He also gave cruppen a fould because a clans man had swiped at the ball as the cruppen man when down to pick it up (granted this was a foul but the cruppen man had the chance to pick the ball up simply because he had kicked it out of the hands of a clans man) He gave a free for something that wasn't a free 4 seconds earlier. Also gave  cruppen a point when their man caught the ball and his momentum took him over the line. Dessie awarded a free for a push. But a draw was probably a fair result.

PINTS will now stop supporting Armagh I think Mc Keever is the best candidate for the job good luck to the lad

From what I hear the bawn are struggling. Was at the Clans game and dont agree with illdecide that it was a poor game. I thoroughly enjoyed it and it was exiting at the end when both temas could have won or lost it. For the first game it wasnt bad at all. The Clans look very young and to be honest if Cruppen have any intentions of staying up they will be concerned that such a young Clans team dominated them so easily for 30 mins.

heard the cruppen side last night and it sounded very young as well, a lot of the u-21s playing with  their best player peter loughran injured .

I thought most wides were easy to hit  .

You have the potential to be another ballbag, either that or you have a sad life.

Eire Og 2-20; Killean 0-0

Holy jasas!

Did you notice this score was omitted from the Irish News on Monday?  Did you also notice that the official county website and Aertel text have the result listed as Eire Og beat Killean? 

Surely there is not a conspiracy of silence to save the blushes of a certain well-known sponsor?

[fitzroyalty]

I noticed that. its not unusuall, county board have done it before, we put 11 goals past clann eireann in a reserve game last year and it wasn't published, neither was their u21 result v cruppen where they were also stuffed

DIdnt realise such offence would be caused out of harmlessness from complete boredom on a tuesday afternoon

Goo result for dromintee sunday evening against mullaghbawn. played some great stuff in the first half and a 3 point lead should really have been at least 7 or 8. mullaghbawn made it very difficult in the second half with all the me behind the ball but the goal was the clincher. good performances from vincy martin, aidan o'rourke, cathal o'neill, shane carroll and particularly micheal o'rourke

The first Killeavy man on the board?

Possibly and it wouldn't surprise me, but it is a practice that has been going on for years CillSleibhe.
