I would agree to a certain extent bubbles, However the whole idea of this new league system was to ensure that fixtures were not going to pile up at the end of the year. If for example the relegation in the league came down to the final day. Dromintee and Killeavy both needed only a point from their last game and it just so happens to be against each other. If this game were to finish level and both teams stayed up, couldn't you imagine the uproar.

I acknowledge that county committments are a lot of hassle for clubs. We had the same problem with Marsden and O Hagan but we always played our league fixtures and were indeed relegated one year(though this wasn't the only cause) .

It seems to be the same teams each season postponing games willy nilly and this only leads to mounting tensions at the end of the season. The only way to stop this is to play the games when they are supposed to be played, unless a valid reason occurs which has not been made clear on here at any time. There was supposed to be some two week rule implemented aswell if i am not mistaken and this will have to be abandoned in the killeavy case as Armagh will again be playing.


Oh and crossfire i never said i had a degree in English but once again well done for pointing out a spelling mistake. I am glad you read my posts with such scrutiny and enthusiasm.
I never forget a face but in your case I will make an exception.

County men can play in games this Friday night but not Sunday - hear that they are in Breffni Sunday morning/afternoon.

Whats the feeling with yous men about the Cavan game?  I cant see yous losing to be honest as Cavan are a pretty poor outfit and i think Seanie J will know the championship has started for real when he finds Mallon hanging of him all over the pitch and Francie flatens him in the middle of one of his mazy solo runs
If it moves hit it

He's my half-brother. Our da is a bit of a ladies man, got his Ma pregnant when she was 19 and he was 68. Some of you silverbridge or Cross ones are bound to be familiar with these sort of seedy rural goings-on.

Billy to be honest Cavan are piss poor but Armagh will probably struggle to beat them as they always do in the ulster. Armagh on paper look far superior to Cavan but for some reason they very rarely produce a display that blows the minnows out of the water.

This doesn't bother me because all is important is a win but this is how i would see. Armagh wil start the game sluggish and go in leading by two at half time. They will come out in the second half and a bit of niggle will creep into it. Armagh go into a four or five point lead only for Cavan to peg them back. The game will be in the balance with 5 minutes to go and Armagh win by two points.

I look forward to you all posting this back up as a quote when it turns out to be :D :D shite  :D :D ;) ;)

Its been noted dont you worry my friend ;) ;)

Id say youll not be far off Armagh will win but not by much and wont hit top form.  but it will give yous a game to iron out problems before probably meetint Tyrone who are far to quiet for my liking.

against harps afew years ago at cruppen or was that due to a DUBIOUS call from the umpire..

aye that was a tight one. some say it was a point... some say it wasnt...
standing directly behind it qub defo a point from a neutral who if anything would have been more in favour of a dromintee win

thought the umpire would have been of the same opinion. the debate still goes on around the shaws. the same umpire got plenty of cheap drink in a bar in belfast where a well known harps man was workin...
qub i wasnt working in shaws at the time and it was defo a point
