I appreciate views of individual performances are always going to be in the main subjective, but it should be possible to bring some element of objectivity to an analysis.

His performance was far from flawless, but for a goalkeeping debut I thought there was a lot of promise shown and he is worth trying again. Mayo pushed up on our kick outs and that did cause problems, but were these problems any greater than that which Monaghan caused, with Blaine in nets?   

I'm afraid the nature of your analysis suggests that you have some sort of vested interest here.

What would you know.

Any truth to the rumours Celtic"s Mike's Johnston's Irish lineage is being investigated?i
Very talented player. Would be some addition to the squad.

Would the fact the Bamfords are Catholic have any bearing on the Pastor's reluctance to sell the property?

Armagh should stick to hurling and Buckfast.

I would have high hopes for the young lad Henderson.  Seems to have a great eye for a creative pass.

Gareth Malone.  Throwing his name out there as a potential successor to Mickey Harte.

I see Ciaran Branagan from Down is the ref, As refs go I think he's good, though you wouldn't need much of a ref to spot the fouls in the Armagh tackling.
tbf Main Street Monaghan are privy to the old sneaky fouling as well.
Brannigan is fine as a Ref though he should spot both sides at the dark arts.
I'm more talking about blatant bad tackling rather than a foul tackle or the tackle from the dark side.

Monaghan are much better at fouling than us.

Monaghan are much better at appearing to be fouled than us.

Must have heard about all the tight arsed Cavan men and decided to check it out for himself.

A cavan man wouldn't shove his finger up another man's arse....a sheep's arse...now that's another matter altogether....

His finger?

The club is in a strong financial position and a should be able to identify those additions required to further bolster in certain positions which are outside the grasp of other SPL teams.  There's a strong nucleus of players already there to see out 10IAR.

The players seem to want Lenny to stay and I wonder is it not even more risky bringing in a new broom where a potentially new playing style that takes time to bed in disrupts any momentum.  Surely 10IAR is a matter of sailing this ship home?  I'd be confident that Lenny could achieve that (wouldn't care about another treble).

Has any team in the history of a pre season tournament got as carried away as them? McGeeney talking about super 8s. Soupy Campbell says the level of players that they now have is scary. McGeeney also saying they are just a level below Dublin Tyrone and Mayo. Now I know they have good players but is this not gettting slightly carried away?

Scared much, Smurf?

Hughes
Hughes McKay Morgan
McCabe Donaghy Sheilds
Vernon Sheidan
Forker Grugan Grimley
Clarke Murnin Campbell

ONE CAN DREAM

Subs
E.Rafferty
Oneill
Ohanlon
Burns
Rowland
McQuillan
Mackin
Dyas

Based on the players that could reasonably be expected to be available a match day 26 (with a view to a fresh broom) could look something like this:

          Hughes
Morgan  McKay  Burns
McIlroy  Connell Shields
Rafferty / Grimley
O O'Neill  Grugan  Forker
McParland  Murnin  Campbell

Subs:
McParland
R O'Neill
J Duffy
McQuillan
Owens
McKenna
Rowland
McCabe
McShane
Hall
Either a Vernon / Donaghy

There are a number of other notable absentees from this list, so there is def a talent pool of at lest 30 guys across the county who could make us a very competitive outfit.

What would have been the training undertaken, particularly by those team coming through the qualifier route, these last number of weeks considering the hot weather?
