Tones Beat Harps by a point, goal with about 2mins left on the clock to win bu the minimum!! Joe Quigley scored 3-4 I think it was, imagine if the man was fit!! ;-)
Oh and some dodgey decisions from the Tones umpire...

decision(s) as in more than one??  Spoke to the ref after the game who has the final say and he agreed the shot was wide.  A neutral from another club also told me the shot was wide after the game.  Maybe you should check out the board rules before posting "candyman".  The harps umpire made a dodgy decision also, giving a blatant wide for a "45" and he didnt appear to argue too much over the alleged point. 

harps should have had us out of sight.  6 points up 10 mins into the second half, we were in a similiar position to that last year in abbey park and lost.  Quigley was good alright putting chris mccarron onto him in last 20 mins made a real difference.  was a cracking game most exciting i have been to in a while.  Some great point taking from both sides.  Fair play to everyone involved.

You armagh men are some craic , your one and only all Ireland was an example that hard work and being lucky to get a golden generation gives most counties hope that some day they to might win 1 maybe 2, but what gives you the devine right that you all seem to have of Armagh winning another , never mind spending time blaming everything on POR . All you need is a SSS .
Some one call the Irish news and book Jamie Clarke a Skinner Skills Session !! Job done
would hardly call it lucky.  Armagh where knocking on the door for a few years from the late 90's early 00's.  Another AI is a long way awayat this stage, dont think any armagh supporter thinks we have a devine right to win an ai, though possible ones could/should have followed between 03-06

what would people think of henderson?good player imo, though not the wide player we seek.  20 million quoted could be better spent?

Down probably underestiated armagh, though think conditions also helped.

Great performance from Armagh - played really well. Hard to believe how bad Down were though. Hard to know whether down will come abck through the qualifiers. And with all he talk of Clarke going back to Oz- Down are in a spot of bother.

Gives Armagh something to build with. Ulster is so open anyone could win it this year.

Overall standard of the game was really good especially from Armagh.

Will be interesting to read the apologists now on the Armagh management.

criticism of por was fully justified during league, tho he got it spot on last night.  Dont think an apology required, we pay our hard earned money into games and are entitled to opinions.  imo por isnt the man for the job, great display lastnight though and fair play to players and management

Quotedoubt armagh will be "cocky", where has this came from?

Armagh in their pomp, with McConville, Geezer, McGrane the Twins etc etc were cocky, in a good way (for them); they played with a swagger and truly believed they were among the best teams in Ireland - and rightly so. They had the medals to back it up. Cockiness worked for them, it scared (most of) the opposition and gave them a headstart in games. Made them feel invincible.

I don't believe this Armagh team have anywhere near the standard of players the team of 2001-2005/6 had so it would be a mistake to start believing any hype based on 1 game,albeit a convincing win against the aul enemy, instead they should simply keep doing what they are doing - stay as much under the radar as possible and work very very hard for each other.

Psychologically I think this Armagh team have more to gain from that feeling of being written off and of being seen as underdogs than they do from swaggering into matches where they do not have the 1-15 to match the opposition (further down the summer).

Confidence, belief, yes -take all that from yesterday but it will be a short summer if that old cockiness replaces the hunger to prove people wrong.

and these players are retired...

Does this mean the anti PoR brigade will pipe down for a bit????

I thought Armagh were tremendous. Vernon, O'Rourke, Padden, 'Crackin' Mackin,Clarke were excellent.

Armagh have a real chance to win Ulster, they will beat Derry easy and give  right lash at whoever comes through the other side.

i doubt derry be a easy game.

That was a great game to watch.

Thought Down were very flat and will improve. Armagh are limited but played their wee hearts out. I'd imagine Down would hammer them if they meet in August.

typical idiotic post from you. dont think either team would hammer other armagh pulled away at the end lastnight.

well that could be the case scarface but there is plenty of time to turn it around no one is doomed yet

fancied clans to get 4 points from opening two games.  Alot sterner tests in the league to come, could be a long summer at this rate.

Quotevery good side imo outside the "big 3"cross,ogs,dromintee

I dont think Dromintee are in any Big 3 - they were totally hammered by the Ogs the other day...

league and championship totally different, dromintee knocking on the door a number of years to rule them out at this stage is foolish

I think cullyhanna are a poor enough side. Think they lack pace right throughout IMO. Cross on their day would destroy them

st pats gave them there 2 most difficult games on the way to ai victory,so would have to disagree.  tasker be a big loss for them this year though
