We could actually win a game this weekend

Ollie hearty decides the winner!

[TacadoirArdMhacha]

Cullyhanna beat a disappointing killeavey side by six points. Good performances from Mal Mackin in midfield and halfback line of Ciaran O Hare, Ciaran Mc keever and Paidi Mc Creesh who scored two excellent second half points. Killeavey missing Stanfield but Mc Donnell played and Ciaran Mc Keever had a great game on him. Cullyhanna scored the games only goal in the first half through Liam O Hare after being well set up by young corner forward Kieran Hoey. Good start to the league from the pats men with four points picked up from four on their travels.

Think it was 7 points in the end pat_mc but I'd agree with the summary. THought Mal had an excellent game meself. Forward line looked a lot more dangerous than against Clanns and we even spurned 2 good goal chances in the first half (superb game from Blaine Cromie to push an effort from Aidan Mackin onto the bar).

Considering the same 2 teams drew at the end of last year, I think this result shows that we've progressed since then although I suppose there's also the possibility that Killeavy have regressed. Thought Kieran Hoey did very well meself. Excellent improvement all round from last week. Interesting to see how we do against Dromintee on Sunday.

AT LEAST THE CRUPPEN BRETHREN GO TO WATCH OUR TEAM PLAY!

pints your clearly wrong on that one! being one of the cruppen brethren i'm only getting the chance to write on this now since the game last night!

defensive lapses cost us dearly last night and let the bridge in for 2 goals. discipline let us down with the referee moving the ball up for questioning his decision 4 times! very disapointed to lose a 6 point lead in the manner it was done! hopefully its the kick in the arse we need!

Well I'm happy you can, there's nothing I'd love more than to be fit to go to the 'bridge games but I'm not in the country, it's about the only thing I miss about home. 


You'd plenty of time to browse, unfortunately not posting when your team drops points is something I've come to expect of several posters that post on this thread.

one must always ake the rough with the smooth the pints man.

Where do Cross II's play? 

[rootthemout]

did i miss the results for the weekend games in the irish news,also cannt see any senior league fixtures for this week in it?good man anportmor for posting fixtures,who is armagh pro responsible for this?

[winsamsoon]

Goats i would say cross seconds would play wherever they would be down to play. Ie St paul's v Cross II. would be at st Paul's  . Only winding you. They must not play their home games at cross then, i take it that is what you are getting at??

I presumed they played in Cross, but if their senior team is playing there, then their II's are hardly! 

Maybe they'll just switch & Ballyhegan will play at home this time?

Slag off Cross on here & I'd get a response fairy quickly! - Ask a question & they all hide!

Very difficult to assess teams this early in the season, especially without seeing them. Going on hunches, guesses, stories and reports it looks as though
clans might be in decent shape with DM in full tow.
cullyhanna will be very competitive in the division but as has been said, the county players are probably vital to them.
Maghery seem to be poorly organised and well back.
Mullaghbawn will be the usual high energy side but lack quality.
Dromintee - hard to know. beat a poor maghery without the 2 o'rourkes but could be running out of resources.
Ogs seem to be moving well and should progress from last year.
Harps look to have taken a few more steps back but this weekend will say more about them
killeavy will be fit and organised but will lack a scoring threat in this division without their 2 county men (stanfield should be available sat?)
Cross - assuming they'll not be training their starters much at this stage but have more than adequate cover.
Cullaville - Alan o'neill's retiremant will have hit them but will be aggressive and direct as usual

Cross to win the league ahead of clans and ogs
Killeavy, cullaville and harps to battle for survival

This weekend -

Maghery v Pearse Og            Ogs
Dromintee v Mullaghbawn      Draw
Killeavey v Harps                   Killeavy
Crossmaglen v Culloville          Cross
St Patrick's v Clan Na Gael      Clans


MAYBE YOUR RIGHT....

Including a draw, 4 out of 5 weren't bad on that docket!

[Armagh Exile]

The Armagh club fixtures and results are usually on the www.orchardcounty.com website.
I assume that is where An port mor got them from in his last post.
I think the Armagh PRO is someone from Middletown.

To goats Do Shave.

Sorry for the long, long delay in replying.

The game is not until sunday so i hope this post still leaves you time to make the necessary arrangements

When Cross seniors are also playing at home the division 3 team normally play in the council pitch which is behind the main pitch.
You can use the same entrance if you wish but the official entrance is the next turn on the right just past the rangers hall. ( Lismore Estate ).

However Paddy Mc Keever was talking to one of our boys after the Cork game and he said he would see if yous would mind playing at 3.30 so yous could use the Rangers pitch.

Again my sincere apologies for the big delay.
