Am I right in thinking if Armagh don't win the group we have to meet Kerry or Dublin in a Q/F? (plenty of ifs to factor in but looking likely) Can't meet our own group winner, nor Donegal who will win their group.

Bring it.

So Rishi rich wants mandatory national service for 18 year olds. We need to get as far away as possible from these people... (though I suspect it's about as likely as a bridge to Scotland)

National Service didn't happen in the occupied six countries during WW2 and wouldn't happen here this either. Sunak pandering to the far right.

Nervy and scrappy game. Could have went either way in fairness.  Celtic never created many chances.

But great to get over the line in a derby cup final.  It was a big game as it completed the double and Celtic go out on a high.

No real stand out performers but Idah took the chance when gifted to them. Some collection of trophies for Mc Gregor and Forrest.


Need to build on it now. The summer is short!

On the other hand, they will sell their best players and replace with potential 😐

Are all the Westmeath supporters on holiday?

I am not sure on Lagan Valley and north belfast there. I would have my doubts SF will get in again in north belfast. In lagan valley maybe? (though maybe wishful) DUP may be ousted.

SF would be strong favourites for North Belfast. They're very active on the ground and other parties have a despondency about them.

Armagh have named a strong team to face Westmeath, but no Rian O'Neill replaced by Tiernan Kelly.

Has Westmeath progressed from last year?

Is there a league table of who has the most "Ignores"?

Any hidden gems movie wise?

Idiocracy, predicted the Trump presidency.

1. Go back and have a word with yourself- What would you say?
- believe in yourself

2. To witness a great/infamous event, be it your own or other event (give reasons)
- when Charles Poyntz defended Poyntzpass from the last strands of Earl of Tyrone's army. I would love to see the lay of the land of my homestead.

3. To change something, but beyond your DOB and reasons
- Battle of Kinsale, and tell the Earl of Tyrone that he had the English bate, or
- Wake up Brian Boru and get him out of that tent before the Dane arrived.

I'd like to see a number of new faces start against Westmeath, and give others a break. Not taking Westmeath lightly, but we should still have enough to win whilst resting players for remaining matches.

So rest Andy Murnin, Rian O'Neill, Ryan Grugan, Aidan Forker, Aaron McKay and Stefan Campbell,

Start Jason Duffy, Tiaran Kelly, Aidan Nugent, Shane McPartlan, Connaire Mackin, Jarley Og Burns and Barry McCambridge (Well, start 6 out of those 7).

Kieran McGeeney has now had 10 years in charge of Armagh with talented enough players. Not even winning ONE Ulster title is embarrassing. It's an ongoing culture of abject failure. Just as how Mayo will continue to not win an AI title until perennial chokers Aidan O'Shea and Cillian O'Connor are excised from that panel, Armagh CAN'T succeed until McGeeney is removed.

You can't be sure about that. If McGeeney had left years ago we could be playing Tailteann Cup. Bear in mine it has been a long time since we had success at any underage, so we're making best out of our limited resources.

I don't know. I just have visions of Rian O'Neill giving a Tohillesque tour de force, driving Armagh on to win through sheer force of will.

Pundits leaning Armagh from what I've heard so far. "It's their time!" seems to be the consensus.

O'Neill will do well to see out the game!

on what basis?

He didn't bury Shane McGuigan for biting him last year so I'm sure the Donegal boys won't be able to goad him into anything.

Fermanagh tried to wind up Rian right from the end of the parade but it didn't work.

Any help finding me 3 tickets will be much appreciated.

I need tickets.

Fingers crossed that some will go on Ticketmaster, else I'll be out with the begging bowl :-/
