You're going to need a lot of apples.

LOL ye have me there

Speaking of alot of apples, I used to work for a guy who serviced lorries that done a run of apples from Armagh down to Clonmel for Bulmers.
The guy that owned the lorry also done a number spreading lime on fields. So one week the trailers would be full of lime and the next week apples all destined for your cider.

So if your ever wondering where the heart burn is coming from next time ye have a Magners/Bulmers now ye know ;-)

Just curious.
How many of ye would like to see Armagh keep all 15 on 2moro night and go on to win the McKenna cup or would ye rather see a good skelping match with Cavanagh bros decapitated?

Decapitating the uglier Cavanagh wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing. He has some coupon on him.

Ahh come on now even during the worst days between Tyrone and Armagh the head on Malachy O'Rourke was considered outta bounds

Poor oul Malachy, minding his own business managing Monaghan and he gets bought into the Armagh v Tyrone slanging match.

Armagh v Tyrone party tonight in my gaff via Armagh TV linked to TV.  I can't believe the McKenna cup has brought such a following for it.

Up Armagh anocht!!!!!

We are doing a sweepstake on the amount of times Cavanagh falls. I'm going for 16, feel confident.

Some nonsense from a few Armagh fans in recent weeks. The stuff about cavanagh being intimidated by mckeever is ridiculous.

Cavanagh goes out on the field to play football, that's what he's there for. Over the years he has taken every challenge that comes at him and played away being one of the most influential players. You'll also see him putting in plenty of big hits of his own. He has no problem going for 50 50 hits and can compete with the best in them. Ask Francie bellew or flick on the 05 semi and see it yourself if you doubt his physicality.

He tries to avoid fusty cuffs and wrestling matches as it'll do him and his team no good. Some people try to make that out to be yellow or soft, whereas in reality he just has a bit of sense.

I am expecting quite a physical game tomorrow night. Armagh are adopting quite a physical approach and tyrone are out to prove they won't lie down to it. No matter what anyone says on here both teams will be trying to win it. Should be good entertainment for January.

all this is true and it makes it even more frustrating when he does take a tumble after hardly being touched. Now, this doesnt happen all the time but it does happen.

I want to see a good game with neither side taking a backward step. Some big, fair hits, and plenty of good football on display. I want Armagh to win and the game to end with 30 players on the pitch. Most of all, whatever happens I hope we dont see people going crying to the press.

Often the last line in a post shows the poster's true mindset.
So reading between the lines Tonto you expect there to be some controversial incidents that Tyrone MIGHT be complaining about.

See this is the point I am trying to highlight but ye are too blind to see it.
Why can't ye just go out and play football?
Are ye worried your team isn't good enough so you have to bring in this physical stuff.
I think ye have some excellent players and even though I hate the cnut McKeever is a great defender and played well for Int rules team.

It's like most of ye don't even see it yourselves any more. Think ye are the norm and everyone else bar Monaghan are pussies.

Just right too.

Armagh TV, do you have to pay for this? Presume so.

[bennydorano]

St marys game was £3 via Paypal. Great job on a shite night. I'll have to get the arse of the sofa for this one incase there's a Clontibret style invasion by the munchkins.

Nope. I clearly stated what I want to see happen. Then I added a bit of what I dont want to see. Am I expecting something to happen? It a derby with a lot of history. There has been incidents in the last 2 games so something may happen again, its not illogical to say that is it?
I couldnt care less about everyone else to be honest mate, I only care about Armagh and as I said earlier, I hope we win a good entertaining game of football.
