Armagh Club football & hurling

[armagh leg-end]

why where the fixtures changed to sunday?

[illdecide]

we are to play st. pats on sunday night!

Dont forget the gum shields.

Tell ya what pints, if the Cullyhanna lads find out who you are you'll not be allowd through them parts again

Did you always have a frosty relationship with them lads or was it that incident last year that done it??

[I SHOT JR]

Always intense rivalry between the bridge and cullyhanna. Cullyhanna were filthy years ago but judging on last year, the new breed are just as bad.  Last years act was a disgrace!

[winsamsoon]

wasn't it cullyhanna that Darcy split from?

[illdecide]

wasn't it cullyhanna that Darcy split from?

WSS as far as i know, YES. They are called Dorsey Emmets now and St Pats Cullyhanna. Although the south Armagh Brigade will correct me on this if i'm wrong

[pintsofguinness]

Yeah they split a few years ago and Dorsey Emmets were formed - the oul boys will still call the knackers dorsey.

Always intense enough rivalry between the clubs but it was mainly just the normal stuff you'd get between neighbouring clubs. 

It's gone a lot further than that now but I know for me the bad feeling comes more from what happened in the weeks and months after the match.  I mean after the match we'd their club members crying and apologising and blaming that **** Casey that's over them, he was being sacked and so on.  What do they do?  They appeal their suspensions, they play the one player that's suppose to be suspended and the reappoint casey (a man who sends his team out to get a game abandoned - that's from coward mal mackins mouth!)  as manager this year. 

About a week after that game with us a young fella in cross received an awful hammering from a group of Cullyhanna boys, his crime you ask?  His da won their lotto and is related to a top man in St. Pats.  I think that says it all about them!

[twotwocharlie]

Dorsey Emmets are a grand we club progressing well, new pitch and club rooms as far as i know . Unfair to comperre them to cullyhanna.

silvebridge B team beat cruppin tonight by about 5 points. it was a tight game throughout with the 'bridge maintaining a 1 point advantage until seamie martin scored a goal near the end.  not the most convincing performance by the 'bridge but a win none the less while we prepare for the championship final next wednesday night against cullyhanna.

[pintsofguinness]

are they still unbeaten from last year?

[inthemaking]

yeah were still unbeaten although i think we drew 1 game in the league. not sure who it was against though

[CelticWater]

Any word on Dromintee v Culloville in the B's? who played well? Thinkin of making a return for Dromintee!

[Goats Do Shave]

I'm told Ballyhegan Davitts beat the Ogs in the Mid Armagh B Final last nihgt by 3 points!

True.

el curvo, were you at it, Ballyhegan must have improved seriously, remember the Harps bating them out the gate last year. Thought the Ogs B, sorry development squad had this one in the bag.

Ballyhegan def have improved because it's only a couple of yeras ago that they were the whipping boys in North Armagh(maybe whipping boys is a bit over OTT) but i expected the Ogs, Harpe etc to have really good sides.
Anyway fair play to Ballyhegan as they are a good bunch of lads. We actually won a match last night(B-team, we beat Eire Og) So thats what it felt like to win a game, thats the first win between the seniors and B-team in about a month

Dunno if we will make the cut for this new B-team league as we have only played 5 games and have 8pts, i think the cut of date is 1st July.
