Armagh Club football & hurling

[winghalfback]

You would probably do well to say nothing then instead of alluding to my post as untrue, but offering nothing to back it up.

Sounds like a big pile of nahin that has happened in Tyrone a pile a times and gaa just let it slide by especially with the two clubs involved being big clubs. Happened in a u16 match a few years ago in Omagh, a Cookstown lad claimed he was assaulted at halftime by an opposing team mentor going down the tunnel. Gaa did nothing about it so don't be surprised if same happens here.
On another note what's the feelings in Armagh about this weekends semi final? Confident?

It is one of these things that really rile me about the GAA, instead of dealing with it they try to wash it under the carpet, especially when big clubs are involved.  At under age level they encourage everyone to teach respect and yet they haven't the balls to stand up for the very kids that don't get respect.

All very quiet about the Ogs v Cross U16 match  - surely there are going be real repercussions arising out of this.  Some shocking incidents.

Abandoned match replaying tonight in the Athletic grounds - the GAA obviously washed this under the carpet as usual - pathetic really, sends out some message.

I was there and wish I'd brought my ear plugs Jim McC never quit the whole game. Cross far stronger on the ball and took their scores well, too many simple mistakes from the Ogs.

I'd say it was all encouragement too!!!!  He can be very hard on his own fella as well but it seems to be working alright. 

I would agree though we were stronger on the ball but more than anything I felt we had a better balanced team.  Ogs have 3-4 excellent players who would be the strongest players on most teams in the county but they seem to try to do everything themselves.  Our boys played very well as a unit with the 'weaker' players contributing consistently.  I felt the Ogs stronger players don't have the confidence in their 'weaker' team mates.

Don't think anyone who seen the game could argue with that, and after seeing boys go on mazy solo runs to end up easily turning the ball over instead of laying it off to boys in a better position, or kicking it hopelessly wide must be frustrating for the 'stronger' players

Statement on behalf of Armagh County Board of The GAA
Armagh County Board would like to apologise to patrons who travelled to the Armagh Athletic Grounds for the scheduled Senior Championship Quarter Final fixture between Dromintee club and Crossmaglen Rangers.
The Dromintee Club informed the County Board at approximately 7 p.m. on Friday evening, the evening of the game, that they could only field a much weakened team due to the unavailability of its senior panel.

[orangeman]

Those statements don't match.

Roughly translated it says " this is just a complete farce, a total embarrassment but it's got nothing to do with us, shame on Dromintee, nobody's fault only their own, ok we could have changed the game for Dromintee cos of the wedding but we were never going to do that, especially when it was Cross that was involved - don't blame us for taking your money at the gate knowing that it was going to be a complete joke of a match - blame Dromintee."

[orangeman]

And we're keeping the money so tough shit.

And we're keeping the money so tough shit.

I was at the match and did not see anyone charged in. Gate was open for free entry.
