Armagh Club football & hurling

[bennydorano]

Even when we were 8 or 9 points up I didn't feel we were playing well.  WE made too many positional changes to our starting and line up and the players seemed a bit a sea at times, how we were 5 pionts up at ht was a mystery.  Some changes worked well, like Peadar at ff to run the legs of the big fb, but others like Charlie at whb were mystifying, why play an intercounty midfielder there?  Thought harpo had a very good game but there is no need for him to play chf forward as he's there for breaking ball and scavenging and doesn't have to do from such a pivotal position, could do it just as well from 10 or 12.

team I'd like to see for replay
Richards
k morris, N McArdle, Gill
McCoy, holmes, McConville
Charlie & Philly McKinney
Harpo, Nippy, Ultan Lennon
Kevnign Kelly, Peadar, Joe Quigley

Clans will obviously take great heart from the game, but have to say it's ours to lose, we have far more talent, it's just getting them to play as a team.

Any word on ogs/cullaville?

I think there is more improvement in that Harps team than Clans but fair play to Clans they showed a lot of fighting spirit last night. However if Harps play a few more of their returning players from the start (and they will now be justified in doing so) they have too much ability for Clans. Was impressed with Toal last night, that man is an enigma. Its also guaranteed that the county board will arrange it that Harps and Ogs avoid each other in the semis.

Incidentally I see Grimley has steered Clontibret into the Monaghan county final. i know its a bit further down the line but there could be a possible collision with Ogs in the Ulster semi-final. Interesting.

Any word on ogs/cullaville?

Culloville won by 4

[illdecide]

Mullaghbawn & Killeavy both relegated then

[Harold Disgracey]

Middletown beat Keady by 9 points in the hurling final 3-14 to !4 points. Could have been more. Middletown much the better team.

[winsamsoon]

any latests from the Clann Eireann game

[Harold Disgracey]

Clan Eireann won by a point & now play the Ogs in the semis I believe.

[Onion Bag]

Harps Ogs Final could still be on the cards then, Interesting

[fitzroyalty]

Harps Ogs Final could still be on the cards then, Interesting

Likewise an all-Lurgan final 

[Onion Bag]

absolutely, a strong possiblity of a good derby final

Clann Eireann were impressive tonight, maybe whitecross underestimated them slightly and could have been more in it had all c/eireanns men stayed on the field. ref was poor, wouldn't let the game flow and blatantly favoured whitecross, the first sending off for clann eireann was diabolical. clann eireann were more physical and it was evident, they were dominant around the middle and their tackling was impressive. henderson was poor by his standards but still nicked a goal.

U must have inside information then? I believe along with every1 else that it is an open draw made tonyt at 8pm??

[Jimmy Joe]

The draw was made straight after the Clann Eireann match

Mullaghbawn are now down and i don't thing anybody could have an arguments...2days result was not a big surprise 2me and when safety was no longer in your own hands...you can not depend on our teams always to do u a favour...we have flirted wit relegation now for a number of years and hopefully we can rebuild and come back stronger...my only fear is that div2 is v strong in my eyes and it could prove difficult  bounce back straight away as the Harps lads will tell you....

Was just thinkin during the week that we have been in div 1 now for quite a few years and there are too many teams that hav remained in it for that long....but like everything else, things come to an end eventually as Cross will tel you this year....
