Armagh Club football & hurling

[Onion Bag]

He is playing on sunday at the athletic grounds against cross if you fancy making the journey overthebar, I think someone told me the players had a bash for him

[BerfArmagh]

I am sure Collie will recieve some form of official club recognition at the November Gala shin dig...

SO whats the thoughts on the 2 matches on sunday guys. I reckon the Harps will give it a good lash against cross. Though to be honest I don't think we have the scoring power to beat them, but sure ye never know, if your not in, you can't win! 

Ogs v Killeavy should be a good game also, hopefully its a good day weather wise & all 4 teams (Well not cross  ) play to their potential. I fancy the Ogs to pip Killeavy

what odds would you get on cross winning the next 5 senior championships?

Was at both Harps' and Cross' quarter finals and thought Harps looked very average against a limited Mullaghbán side. In contrast Cross were superb. Looking at the two sides it seems impossible to imagine how Harps stand any chance. Vernon and Holmes are good. But they aren't that good.

Hopefully Harps will make a game of it but its difficult to see them getting any closer than 5 or 6 points. That said, its all on the day and hopefully I'll be wrong.

Ógs on paper would be expected to beat Killeavy, but as people have mentioned earlier int his thread, Killeavy are in a great vein of form. May come down to which team gets the most out of its star county forward.

Any one no where to get odds for the minor championship?

I would try a Bookmakers shop in Armagh, should be able to help out a high profile character like yourself!! 

Which bookies is likely to have odds Candyman?

You would struggle to get ods for minor c'ships, its hard enough to get them to price up senior championships these days

I am nervous enough about the weekend for the lads.  They are set up for a fall(I know they have been before and didn't fall)  but there is absolutley no pressure on the Harps.  If they get a good start and a bit of momentum, I think they can catch us, but who knows.  Ogs to win at a canter, Killeavey will be easily brushed aside.

Anyone know if the Harps will have a dinner or reception for Collie Holmes of if they did any previous year he won an AI?

This is the same player who, I was informed, held an "anti Armagh" party at his house on the day that Armagh beat Kerry in the 2002 AIF?

Are both games in the Athletic Grounds?

[Onion Bag]

aye, double header Ogs game @ 02:00pm, cross take the stage @ 03:45pm

[crossfire]

  If Hearty refs a few Cross games then they wouldnt finish with too many players.




What do you mean by that statement.

I'd say that's bull, he was already playing for the /harps at that stage as well... in fact, how low could you be to have an anti-anything party. one thing i did hear was that they used an Armagh jersey to wipe their feet in the door way to one of the pubs in the Moy,

[Onion Bag]

Thats fact, It was Jordans in the Moy, Phily Jordans das pub, I know a fella who went to it and turned away as soon as he seen it at the door

Crossfire what border rabbit means is that the Tullysaran lad was sent of for something in his opinion that the cross specialise in ie hitting of the ball and third man tackling. He is then stating that if Hearty (who sent the Tullysaran guy off) was ref at a cross game he would have sent loads off for similar incidents. So he was trying to put the incident as he saw it into perspective to some of the tactics adopted by cross. Now i wasn't at the game but that is what i took out of it.

The issue of Colie Holmes, if this guy did what certain folk are alledging then he should be ashamed of himself. I know there are rivaries in football but there is a fine line between disrspect and humour. Especially when this guy is playing his club football in Armagh. There is an old saying "one should never bite the hand that feeds you" If this hearsay about Holmes is true then he should seriously question the reasons behind what can ony be discribed as hatred. A little respect goes a long long way. When one looses this it is very hard to get it back.

Hughes or Tommy French possibly?? I checked my local (O'Neills) and he was just offering exactly the same as PP.

Cross 1/14
Draw 11/1
Harps 8/1

NO HANDI-CAP BETTING AT ALL!!!
