Derry away to Galway at 5:30 on a Saturday, taking the piss, that's some spin to come up the road again on the same nite.

It could be worse. One problem now is that accommodation is expensive and hard to get. The Ulster winners are away to Cork on the June bank holiday weekend when there isn't an hotel room left in the place. It a fair oul drive from Armagh and a serious one from Donegal. The Ulster runners up get to go to Derry which might be a hard game but is less travel time for fans from DOnegal or Armagh.

That Cork game is badly planned. Think someone was saying theres a few different events etc on in Cork that weekend so everywhere is booked out or extortionate.

Thee wasn't even a whole lot of accommodation in Cork at the league game in March, which was the weekend between Paddy's day and Easter and probably not the peak of the year.

Awful spin to be doing in the one day

Listened to the free state podcast today about Jimmy mcguinness. The jist of it (my take anyway) was that mcguinness was the benchmark, and that other managers (including mcgeeney if I heard correctly) was to be pitied. As an armagh man, to quote a famous gaa phrase, I hope the armagh team take the attitude 'there's only one f*****g answer for that'

I was hoping Ireland  would boycott it  so we wouldn't be subjected to  that act representing the country.

Upsetting your little narrow mind?

PSG still a goal down at half time. Surely they will come out and go all out attack in the second half.
