10 man developement squad  wtf will they come up with next   

[crossfire]

Everybody trying to find fault with the opposition as to the only reason Cross are in another Ulster final stinks of jealousy and sour grapes. St Galls and Burren did not turn into bad teams overnite but instead came up against a superior outfit and stating that 3 or 4 other teams from Armagh would beat these other county champions is both rubbish and disrespectfull. Maybe someone will come on here and state the obvious. CROSS ARE ACTUALLY A GREAT TEAM!!!!!!!!!!

Yes they are but they got harder games against Cullyhanna and Dromintee than against St.Galls and Burren!

Sure they were only going at about half pace, it's a long season and they had to guage their fitness training for the end of November again

what a load of shit,typical rangers p***k,cross knew they were in a battle against us and dromintee and only they ref made a **** of himself and wrongly sent robbie of they would have been beaten,but fair play they can only beat whats in front of them but imo they have exeded expectation this year,brutal standard in ulster club footbal at the minute..

How unlucky, only for that silly Ref yous would be preparing for an Ulster final

I think its a good idea, there's 10 lads who might otherwise only be training with their club or at this time of the year doing nothing that are now training with Mike McGurn.  So if the time comes that they are called up to the full squad they wont have to play catch up in the strength and fitness department.

if the clubs training is right it should be enough. would u want to be used as a 10 man reserve group bad enough being 21-30 when u rarely get a game. cant understand mc kennas inclusion in the 30 very overrated at the moment and hasnt been very good in a lot of club games including b. surely better players in clubs in the county.

Heard Aaron Cunningham is on the county squad?

bloody hell, he's not within an ass's roar of county standard

it might be  but why 10 ? why not at least 20 and then keep the 10 who fare best and could then be called up to the full squad ?  as a few posters stated not all in this 10 are worthy of inclusion , is collective training not of bounds in nov/dec .

[Applesisapples]

Hes lucky making it onto the Cross squad!

Not a Cross fan then? I have been impressed with some of his displays, maybe a bit inconsistent but as good as anything I've seen from Armagh.

I'd be suprised if he's not Harps POTY.  Had a great year, but then again I've only been at 95% of games, someone who saw him play in a B game or 2 and 1 championship match is surely better placed to make such a call.   Knob.

[Uladh]

Surely young McKenna wasn't playing b football this year?

[bennydorano]

Played B champ (because he was eligible to) and a couple of B league games  at the end of the season when we'd a chance of winning B league.  Wasn't named in first 15 on purpose AFAIK.

Athletic Grounds near finished I hear on the grapevine. Anybody out there any photos of the new development?

Nipped around this morning and took a few photos - can't get access to the ground, so the photos are obviously from outside. Although the roof has only started going up, it still looks quite impressive!!

Club Name:     
Clan na Gael

League Division Status:
8th in Division 1 Football

Championship Run:   
Beaten comprehensively in first round by Cullyhanna.

2010 Review:
Not good enough. Showed occasional glimpses of what we're capable of but by and large a year to forget.

Hopes for 2011:
Probably get laughed at, but win the SFC.

[Milltown Row2]

Armagh Cúchulainns, this would be better served on the other thread!

Club Name:     
Naomh Gall, Antrim

League Division Status:
2 in Division 1 Football
5 in Division 2 Hurling

Championship Run:    
Champions of the Football
Beaten by the Antrim Hurling Champions in the first round.

2010 Review:

Football, won the championship, weren't really pushed went into the Ulster series as Champions but got put on our ass by the Ulster Champions this year .

Hurling, after a disastrous first ten minutes against Loughgiel we hurled rightly and due to injuries and boys states side we put in a credible effort. maybe drop do to Intermediate as thats about our standard. nearly relegated in Division two which would have been bad for our hurling promotion. But managed to win 4 out of our last five.

Hopes for 2011:

Football, win the senior football championship and improve on the Cross defeat

Hurling, Win intermediate championship, push for promotion to div 1

Juveniles, we haven't won too many underage titles in a while so we'd need to get our finger out.

Look after the ones coming through the ranks and ensure we keep them.

Oh last but not least, the ladies won the intermediate Antrim and Ulster Championship so they inter the senior Competition next year
