The draw suits me. At the start of the year I posted that I wanted Derry to give Armagh another sickener in an Ulster final. I didn't get that but they can always sicken them in Celtic park.

Nail on the head there Norm

Any visit to Derry is always puke inducing, but perhaps we'll beat Donegal who can then go to Derry and give you another lesson.

There is unfortunately a big lout element that follows Armagh, Lurgan is the biggest town in the county so proportionally has more louts. It is also geographically further for fans to travel to any other county ground in Ireland so the buckfast brigade get at least an extra half hour drinking time on the bus than anyone else. Thats not to say there are louts from every corner of the county, I've seen my fair share of hallions make fools of themselves and they're weren't Lurgan people.

Plenty of them from every county. I've seen loads of Donegal lads pished in Clones an hour before a game was due to start, and I'm sure people could tell stories about Donegal wans who were headwrecks to be beside. I've been at loads of games with Armagh people - never had a single bit of bother. On the contrary they were always a bit of craic and everyone wished each other the best afterwards no matter what the result.

Time to start turning a few of them away at the turnstiles.

Anyone here been to a game in Ruislip before? Thinking of making the trip if I can keep the costs down as it's unlikely we'll have too many games against them in the future

Will the Dubs get two home matches?

Likely to be Dublin and Galway. Should be played in Tullamore.

[so maybe a neutral venue like Croke Park.]

So Dublin v Mayo/Galway losers will NOT be in Croke Park?

Gaelic Grounds?
Clones?

It definitely won't be in Parnell Park, so maybe a neutral venue like Croke Park.

It hasn't happened in the new format so far, why would it happen this year?

I don't think you can read anything into league results at this time of year

Thurles or Limerick if Galway or Cavan if Mayo?
