Armagh Club football & hurling

You have to have respect for players especially those that have just lost a final and im sure the cross ones love rubbing everyones nose in it. However im no hypocrite - if I won a county final id pull my dick out and rub it in someones face!

There was a row over the PA system at the Bridge which was poor but I would stand in front of the press hut in Cross and I rarely hear any announcements.

There were a few aspects of the presentation of the county final that could have been improved. Someone could have proof read the programme, for one. The PA system was poor, if there is one thing that has improved over the years and which come down in cost it is electronics, so there is no excuse for this nowadays. And the trad music at the same time as the band was marching around the field at half time was unsatisfactory too.

there will be big changes as the final will be in Armagh, not in Cross.  also was talking to a man that went early (before the minor game) and was told that part of the stand was cordoned off for cross club members. as neutrals this is a disgrace..

I suppose the result didn't please you either.

Thats hearsay and untrue.

No. I was happy with the result in general. Cross could have won by a couple more though, since they hit the crossbar when they should have got a goal and SK, Oisin and Fish missed  points they should have got. Were you happy yourself?

Mind you Rangers probably didn't print the programme, but it is their crap PA system.

Now now folks, a touch of the green eyed monster about. There is not a club team in Armagh that wouldn't take Crossmaglen's facilities in the morning

[IVEDECIDED]

When Davitts completely finished there wont be a team in Ireland that wouldn take them.

The Cross' ground was famous, they even sent squads of people over from England to take it.

When Davitts completely finished there wont be a team in Ireland that wouldn take them.

Will it have a good PA system? The difference is that in recent years there has only been the odd team in Ireland that could take the Cross team, whatever about the facilities.

when will that be as i heard the funding has been stopped. ps the ground has been transfered to the armagh county board so all the clubs in armagh will own it. but good luck to the clans if they can complete their project ie changing rooms etc. i beleive st pauls have a fantastic set-up and fair play to them and all clubs who have developed for the good of the gaa.

I see mc keever had a dig at cross today and referees not standing up to them. i dont agree in relation to jimmy mc kee in the first match i thought he handled it well but in the replay devlin certainly gave a few dubious decisions to get cross over the line. theres not doubt over the years cross have got the rub of the green from referees i remember especially 2004 in keady when ogs had them beat and oisin should have got the line for headbutting but he got the free instead from that clown henderson and won the game. but when ur the best sometimes you get crucial decision like back then. this is the end of home finals for cross so there can be no complaints on venues going forward. i still feel and congrats to cross that the championship will move about over the next few years.

Instead of going to the papers Mc Keever should have got his Da to have a quiet word with the Referee after the game.

who the feck does own Davit Park anyway? Funding has stopped sure i thought they were still working away in Francis Street, didn't hear anything myself. I'll have to make a few enquiries

Davitts Park was originaly owned by the people of lurgan and was in the hands of a established trustees made up of several members including people that had passed away. The county board were more or less in charge of it hence the state it was in before the work began.In recent year the ground had been neglected partly due to lack of funding and a county board that were unwilling at every opportunity to regenerate Davitt. Also partly down to the club which adopted the attitude that we didn't own it so it would be foolish to spends money on it that could be used elsewhere.

Recently the clans have secured a 99 year lease from the couty board meaning they are now the sole benficiery of Davitt. Aswell as this they are also responsible for any work being done both finacially and manually. The county board are no longer in the driving seat which has been something our club have been trying to achieve for some time. At the moment there is a brand new 3g pitch which has been up and running for the past 4 or 5 months. They are currently in the process of completing a new pitch and erecting floodlights . This is the first phase of work completed, the project is in three phases. The next phases including new dressing rooms and stands. The second and third stage are pending funding and as we all know funding is scarce at the moment but to my knowledge no funding has been stopped by anyone. So the plans are clear lets hope all goes well on the funding side and we can get this project sorted as Davitt Park should always be held high in couty Armagh football.

Davitt park hasnt been transferred to anyone - the clans all but own it now which is the way it should always have been.
