Armagh Club football & hurling

[Goats Do Shave]

any word on how pauls/ballyhegan finished up

Davitts hung on to end...

HT - St. Pauls 0-0 - Ballyhegan 0-7

FT - St. Paul 0-6 - Ballyheagan 0-8

Ballyhegan were super in the first half, very dominant in midfield with Paul Courtney excelling, in the absence of Paul McGrane.
2nd half though St Pauls came out a different team, got on top in midfield & created plenty of scoring chances. The loss of Full Forward Mark Hughes, along with some very wayward shooting from centre forward Paddy McKeever allowed the Lurgan men back in it and left an exciting finish to the game.

It's never straightforward with Ballyhegan!

Super win for the Davitt's to set up some intriguing contests next year, back in Division 2, v Harps, Maghery & Portydown!!! 

Ballinascreen in Derry.

I though Killyman or Dungannon Clarkes was your team?

Aye, I'd say Tiffney's & Co will get a 'nice' welcome when they return to Tir na Og...

Jarlath Burns is very good as an MC as is your County PRO Gerry Donnelly.

His comment at a county board fundraiser a few years ago about there being no legitimate businesses in Culloville was particularly funny

Yeah, surprised to see it as the team was moving in the right direction. Seemed a good guy and there is plenty of talent thee. He certainly has set the ball rolling.

I think the fact that there has only been 2 or 3 posts on here on the subject of his resignation highlights how good a job he did in a county with such a dearth of hurling enthusiasm. Fair play to him, he more than did his bit for hurling in the county and I think we can only hope he is replaced by someone with somewhere near the same level of dedication.

Was thinking the same, although the board is quiet. Of course, he was involved in the All Ireland U21 football win as well. There is a young talented team there and it is hard to know who will come in. Lennon always seemed very genuine.

I know Mattie well, and he has started a business in the last 12 months so I'd say that played a part. He seemed to have done quite well with that team so it's a pity to see him go.

i just want to wish ciaran mc keever and the Ireland team the best off luck for tomorrow
