Armagh Club football & hurling

[torres]

its just a pity the match tonite was soured when a st pats official assaulted the ref while leaving the pitch,then a steward was punched when he interveened,total disgrace,thats all i can say

kerian mc keevers dad was the man in question that assualted the ref. wats new from that crowd of inbreds

Why am I not surprised.  How many incidents does this club need to be involved in before they're given the punishment deserved?

was this same person not  banned 5/6 years ago ? hope the county board come down hard on those involved , i dont know why this club have to resort to underhand tactics in games in which a lot goes unpunished  .

I know that there can never be an excuse for assaulting a referree at any time, but I really fail to say what could have upset the Cullyhanna men in last night's game.
They were by far the 2nd best team on the night and never looked like getting back into it.

It's not like they were beaten by a point with the referree being overly harsh on them all game.  Just seems really strange.

they seem to have a massive chip on their shoulders , when the granemore forwards went and took their positions  the st ? pats defenders put out their hands and the players shook then they started fronting up and shouldering , first side i,ve seen doing this all season ,like what does that achieve , they must think they,re hard men or something but granemore stood up to them and st pats on the line did,nt like or expect this and began yapping as usual looking free,s and bookings while their own tackling was a lot worse  . i do hope the cb look into their actions on the night which took away slightly the deserved granmore win  .

while attending both games at the athelic grounds at the week-end i have to congradulate both og's and granemore, i'd say its a long time since 3 mid armagh clubs were in the last six. id like to see og's and granemore in the next round i think granemore would put it up them.

on another note the person who assaulted the referre and the steward should be banned from the GAA for life, and the two men should claim for assault. i think the referre's should go on strike until there is more protection for referre's.

That would be me. Some reassessment is needed, especially if the Ógs push on to win Armagh and make an impact on Ulster, as they should be able to do.

who was the ref at the granemore game???

Passing through, just though i'd add a note of congratulations to Pearse Ogs.
Great night for the whole club and even made me feel welcome in their club afterwards for a pint or two.

On the referee incident last night(Rory Robinson). I was at the game
- Referees should remove their services until the county board take appropriate action
- County board should be ashamed at the lack of protection i.e. Steward shortages at both games this weekend


Also, surface wise the pitch is pure dung. No programmes does make it hard for people to spot good players/changes on teams and this pisses me off as neutrals would hardly looking to come back to watch c'ship matches again

I wouldn't like to comment on this incident until an accurate description of it is given, so to suggest that referees should withdraw services is an over-reaction based on rumour and innuendo.  I suppose it depends on what is included in the referees report.

I would agree about the lack of stewards though and also the state of the playing surface. You'd also think that a photocopier would be available at county board HQ to run off a few more programmes. Surely that is not too much to ask.

Must be a lack of funds within the county board at the moment as i heard over the weekend that the minors will not be staying in Dublin after the All Ireland final

I'd imagine the Carrickdale will cost as much!?

unless there is an element of sponsorship in kind.
