Cill na Martra with 2 goals in a minute. Now 2-08 to 0-09, that minute may prove decisive.
If at first you don't succeed, then goto Plan B

Turning point in this match with two goals in a minute for Cill na Martra at a stage that Castlerea was on top and leading 0-9 to 0-8
Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose

Quote from: general_lee on January 06, 2024, 02:50:36 PMCongratulations Cullyhanna, some going for a club that was languishing in the 3rd tier of Armagh league football this year to reach an AI Intermediate final.

Well done to the Division 1 Cavan team as well, another moral-boosting hammering for them in the AI Junior Championship. Warm favourites for the final you'd imagine.
Case in point right here
Had enough of it the last time to do me. We'll have to agree to disagree. Best wishes to both Arva and Cullyhanna for their finals.
Agreed. They are where they are. Every season you'll always get a few clubs who drop down to a level below their real position, that's life in graded competitions. We move on

Castlerea 0-15 Cill na Martra 2-10. The Cork champions just about edge themselves into the AI final.

Then what's the point of having intermediate and junior? Arva were Ulster champions before a ball was thrown in in the Cavan junior championship.. What wasn't known was the teams who'd be the other part of the turkey shoot. A monumental waste of time for every other participant (with the exception of the Kerry 'junior' reps)

See bolded lol. It is what it is.

Fine achievement for Cullyhanna, they were relegated to intermediate since they weren't good enough for the last 2 seasons, it definitely wasn't by design. However having regrouped and had a great season and in the absence of any outstadning team at senior level, they are more than capable of competing to win a senior championship next season if they can bring this momentum through. Particularly if they go on and win an AI title now.

Yeah if they keep this group of lads together they wouldn't be too far off Cross who were well ahead in Armagh this year.

 Tough enough going though to get back for league campaign which will probably start towards late March, especially without the 3 county lads plus I'd be surprised if there wasn't another couple of lads from that squad getting phone calls from Geezer. Would think the all ireland will be Barry McConvilles last game for them. Wouldn't be a big shock to see them get it tight in 1B for the first few games.

What??? Look bro, you're must gonna have to accept they were in Junior on merit. They got relegated from Intermediate in 2021 and only won Junior in 2023 after they didn't win it on 2022. They're in the Championship they found themselves in on Championship results. Mad how some of you can't grasp this

Would you let Galway, mayo, Monaghan etc play Tailteann cup?

Dublin, cork, Waterford play Christy ring?

We all know they are not linked etc. but this is exactly what happened.

If Galway, Mayo or Monaghan got relegated to the bottom 16 on league standing and then didn't make a provincial final, they would play Tailteann. It's not a case of being "let" do anything.

Fair play to Arva, what a wonderful journey for a small club to be on. Listowel will be a different animal to what they've faced so far.

Arva always reminds me of Bradys and there was a Brady playing.
Best of luck to Arva in the final. Hon Cavan.
