Is Jamie Clarke playing with Armagh this year? He's based in London, so will he fly over and back?

He isn't based in London

Armagh could fly over Aubameyang and Tammy Abraham with him but they will still be dung!

Did Tyrone mentor Gavin Devlin get his 6 month suspension lifted as it would not expire until early March?
He initially got a 24 week suspension imposed from date of hearing.
Irish News reported as follows:-

TYRONE assistant-manager Gavin Devlin could miss the Dr McKenna Cup and the opening rounds of the Red Hand county's Division One campaign after he was suspended for 24 weeks following an incident which took place at a National U15 Academy Tournament match between Tyrone and Down on July 27.

The Ardboe native was charged with an alleged breach of Rule 7.2 (d): "Disruptive Conduct by a supporter (not causing the Premature Termination of a game)" and requested a hearing on Monday.

At the hearing his offence was deemed to be "proven" and the GAA's Central Competitions Control Committee imposed a 24-week ban which will run from the date of the hearing, not the date of his alleged offence.

Devlin has the option of appealing against the decision but if it stands he could be suspended until March 9 which would rule him out of Tyrone's defence of their Dr McKenna Cup title and the early stages of the National Football League – the 2020 fixtures have yet to be released but in 2019 five rounds had been played by March 3.

A snooze fest that McKenna cup final was. Will be a big shock if under Banty Monaghan avoid Division 1 relegation.

Tyrone winning in Armagh's HQ will never be boring even tho' to Armagh people it's become as regular as the sun rising and setting!

Only a Derry person would scoff at another county for winning matches. A strange breed.

Bit difficult to justify a tenner for a first week in January McKenna Cup game.

Some consideration for circumstances wouldn't have gone amiss either. The middle of the biggest covid wave, the freezing weather, the travelling time from Armagh to Cavan for a game that won't be over til after 9pm on a Thursday evening.

Would've done a fiver, but I'll be making do with Northern Sound at that price.

*Cavan 2pt to no score up after 11 minutes in what sounds like a predictable shite January evening offering.

*Armagh 0-6 Cavan 0-3 H/T

*Armagh 1-12 Cavan 0-11 F/T

Armagh 1-12 Cavan 0-11 it finished. Dirty diesel blown out before a very challenging division one campaign.

Agreed but then again I remember fighting with the Ulster Council years about not offering student rates to matches involving university teams ( I was working for the students Union at the time). So I'm not really surprised.
