So many talking points.

I have no issue with referees giving red cards for contributing to a melee or dangerous play - but it has to be consistent.

McKiernan should have no complaints - ran 50 yards to get involved.

Armagh number 3 & number 13 should definitely have walked.

Some dangerous tackles during the game as well - McShane got done in the first half (think Armagh #7) who jumped into him with an elbow without even looking at the ball.

We need to get up to pace - very pedestrian like in the first half - could have conceded 4 goals.

The next game in 2 weeks will show if we are on the right path

That was Makin. No5. And you were right. I was so angry at him too. There were enough defenders there to deal with it

Cool pic of Sludden giving that girl the thumbs up. Looks like she appreciates it

Re the scrap at the end. It's an irrelevance really. The game was over. It didn't make a difference. It just takes away from what was an excellent Armagh performance, especially in the first half.
5 players red carded and I don't know how 4 Tyrone were picked out and only one of ours. From what I saw the two I thought were guaranteed to walk didn't.

We were very good first half. Yea it's only February and yes we are further ahead of Tyrone in our prep but we can only play what's in front of us. Second half I felt we sat back too much and allowed Tyrone on to us more. In fairness they pushed up a lot more also. We still have a lot to work on. Bottom line is we look decent and probably one win away from another year in division one which is vital for this teams development. Happy with that.

Donegal i the first round of the championship will be a different matter but I will worry about that at a later date

And at 6 seconds Hughes is standing on his line with nobody near him. Who exactly did he punch?

You're missing the part where burns was already there and Harte pushes him over. Not hard to see in the video you so kindly posted.

[2 good games in 5 years and armagh are the next dublin]

Who's the Armagh 13. In the video he has niall sludden in a headlock has hard has he can at the wire and young girl only a yard away staring at it. Surely a lengthy ban for that shit. Fair play to sludden for not endangering her.

Hampsey deserves a lengthy ban for his antics. Acts like a thug on the pitch.

For me Harte deserves a lengthy ban
His actions pulling burns down like that were despicable .

Did you watch the clip. Burns was running straight towards him and I doubt it was to be petey a big hug. Burns spent most of the game on his  arse holding his head at every chance. He acts  like the hard man when the game is all but over.

Tyrone got back to within 5 points with over 6 mins to go, who did the row benefit the most?

Get a grip. Burns was unstoppable today but Tyrone had to resort to underhanded tactics to try and take him out.

So what was he running directly at petey for then? 2 good games in 5 years and armagh are the next dublin🙄

Show me the clip you are talking about. And where did I say Armagh are the next Dublin - it wasn't said, so why are you making things up?

Burns coming towards petey and sudden getting choked from behind against the rails.

Handbag stuff not worth 5 red cards.

Comes running. LOL

He may not have watched the clip but you clearly didn't watch the game if that's your take on Burns today

Worst thing about today in Athletic Grounds was Jarlath Burns and then Rory Grugan lying down feigning injury........all 6 officials saw it for what it was.........pure soccer shite!

And another one. Deary me

Aiden Nugent. And you have no idea how hard that headlock was. He got booked as a result of the melee

That's more like the old Armagh. Mcshane wins a dubious free to put 3 in it and the 2 Armagh defenders headlock him and sludden and won't let go till there's an all out melee. But I'm sure it will come back to haunt them ltr in the year as it always has

Embarrassing

It's the league ffs, who cares.

Me. I'm the grand scheme of things it may not matter but these wins will give us some believe and confidence and that can only be a good thing

Gough signalled for a free in at the start as mcshane was bundled over, after the melee and consultation with the umpires he overturned it. Rightly or wrongly is open to debate. One thing that seriously needs looked at was the constant fringing of head injury all day by Armagh. Og burns and especially Rory Grugan constantly lay down after being tackled and waited a few minutes until the ice pack done the trick. Grugan didn't even wait till being tackled and lay down as Armagh were taking a kickout. Worst thing was Gough fell far it all day

Red gave a free for McShane touching it on the ground. And quit your nonsense about feigning injury. From a Tyrone person and all

Dunno how the red picked people out for the reds other than Hampsey. He had a clash with forker on the sideline just after the melee. I'm guessing that was what his red was for

Ref hadn't a clue what to do so just decided to allocate red cards based on All Ireland titles.

This made me chuckle to be fair

It was a free for Armagh you tube. McShane handled on the ground.
