A battling performance against the wind in the 2nd half had us 8- 1 ahead.
3 later Clare points and a last minute goal by us took the mean look of the board.
We led 6-0 at half time.
Clares first point came after 50 minutes!!
We were full of possession "football" and back passing but it sufficed to get us off the bottom.
Enda Smith took a 45 and kicked it back to round our own 45!!
Davy's given us a dream to cling to
We're going to bring home the SAM

Still no away wins.

Kildare have 3 home games left and Laois in Portlaoise where we have a great record.

Obviously playing shit at the moment but wouldn't rule out promotion just yet.

Def not. There are a lot of twists and turns in this division yet

If Jack O'Connor can sort out that long standing flakiness issue then Kildare will be promoted. Poor weather conditions last night and those lillywhites simply didn't have the stomach for the fight.

If Armagh can beat Westmeath next time out then would fancy them to close out on promotion.

Took a wee while to get into a rhythm but when they did I thought Armagh played rightly.  Very impressed with their work rate all over the park, especially in the 2nd half.  Kildare couldn't match it.

Frustrating at time with sloppy passes.  I'm not sure the conditions can account for this.  Rian was at fault for a couple of these... in saying that though his kicks from the ground against that wind were a joy.

Could and should have had a number of goals.

Never a second yellow for Clarke.

Yeah, i think you're right. This next match is the one that will make or break them, a win sets you up lovely for a top 2 spot and a defeat just throws you back in the mix again. Which Armagh will turn up though?

May have missed this elsewhere but am I right in thinking Jamie Clarke is with a London club this year? Is he flying back weekends? What's he doing over there?
Is an Armagh backer footing the bill for this?

jamie played football there last summer.
simply hasnt transferred back and is training with the county
there is no backer..

Jarly Óg also based in England with Uni I believe? Back at weekends for the time being.  Different in the summer I suppose.

So he isn't in London, hasn't transferred back to Cross and is playing for county? Something about that doesn't sit right with me. Not affiliated to a club but playing for county. It's just another example of the professionalism that we've seen so clearly with McShane. Is he working at home again?

Jamie will play for Neasden gaels again this year
What's the issue
Their season hasn't started
The Tyrone saga is with Mc shane is nothing to do with Armagh

Wasnt the movie star playing football with Athy and county with Tyrone before he retired? Same thing as Clarke playing his club football outside of Armagh. Mooney and another down footballer are also playing with same club as Clarke.
