Quote from: Wildweasel74 on May 12, 2024, 06:40:40 PMArmagh fold again on Penalties, Why was Rian O'Neil taken off. Awful way to lose a game. Some Armagh supporters argue that's that a draw! 4 point up with 20 mins to go, Armagh went bck into their shell instead pushing on.
This time Armagh did not fold, good save to win it. Rian couldn't walk at full time, physio was working on him he had run out of gas. Why Oisin doesn't start or come in earlier is a mystery. But Donaghy telling Jarly Og to recycle a mark that was scoreable  points to a mindset that leads to losing games. Twice at least they had the game won and then stopped doing what was working for them. Players running into dead ends and not taking opportunities points to that  same mindset. Something needs to change, if not McGeeney then the back room. They need a change of direction. Some incredible scores yesterday from both teams, fair play Donegal they found a a way.

Folding in penalty shootout not sure about that however game was certainly there to be won by Armagh in normal time and extra time and will look back on that with much regret.

I thought the last two Armagh penalties weren't good ones.  Patton unlucky he didn't save one before he did save one to win the shoot out.  By that stage it was coming down to fellas that didn't want to take penalties.

Every bit as good as every team in Ulster however still no Ulster title since 2008 as Armagh under McGeeney are jinxed.

I'm in the pub and it's on about four big TVs. Can't hear it however Italy looked good. Finland less so.

Quote from: ONeill on May 10, 2024, 11:13:43 PMWell, the Dubs never lost, one draw in a group game v Roscommon. Armagh also failed to win once in a group game v Tyrone. Their other 2 losses were draws in normal time, draws after extra time, then losing on penalties. When I put it in writing, it looks far from what Dublin achieved, but you sort of know what I mean?

They seem to fall on the wrong side of the coin in a lottery.

We know what you mean.  Armagh due a bit of luck and Sunday could be the day for it, if not...

Bayern Munich will need to get rid of Harry Kane if they want to get back to winning major trophies next season.

Real Madrid lead in added time that was a tight VAR call.

Poor goalkeeping from a normally good goalkeeper.

Quote from: weareros on May 07, 2024, 11:31:37 PMIt's a song that has grown on me. They are clearly very talented and it's nice to have something different. So I'm jumping on the bandwagon. Crown the Witch! 
Calling her "they" is getting very dull. She is obviously very talented and doesn't need any artificial promotion.

They or it for Non-binary?   Bambie doesn't use a gender to describe oneself.

Quote from: NAG1 on May 08, 2024, 01:27:59 PMHit the post 6 times in that game alone I think.

No love for them at all as a club, but some nights it just was never going to be.

Didn't score over both legs against the 5th best team in Germany this season. I don't think too many will be sad to see another soulless club fail to reach the Champions League final.  Before the Qatari takeover they played in the Champions league/European cup only a handful of times and it was mainly group stage or early round exits for them.

Through to the final, won't be a cow milked in Macroom for a week.

Quote from: tiempo on May 07, 2024, 01:46:08 PMHeadline ... 'It's mad' – Rio Ferdinand predicts Premier League chaos over Man City's 115 charges

Is anything ever not 'mad' in that fellas head, brief respite from illegal I suppose

Maybe one day he'll say madly illegal and his head will explode

Ironic of course the same fella swerved a drug test, both illegal and mad

Man city are getting the all clear by all accounts. The FA are just stalling as to how they can back track out of the whole mess without pissing off loads of fans

They are as guilty as the late OJ Simpson.  If Manchester City get the all clear it will show they used the best solicitors/lawyers that their billions can buy.

If the odds are to be believed the Irish song "Doomsday Blue" by Bambie Thug will sail into the final as is currently 5th to win it out.

1st and 2nd favourties to win and both better songs than the Irish one IMO.
