Harps beat Portadown, think the score was 1-11 to 0-10, ..........they made hard work of it though!!!

Nervy error-strewn performance for Harps.  Dooley Martin didn't have a great game as ref, man sent off on each side and both could complain I suppose.  Peadar Toal got sent off for Harps for a fairly soft challenge, the Portadown man he tackled (McDonald) looked a bit embarrassed as Peadar got the line, if it had have been any other Harps man he probably would have gotten a yellow.  Best for Harps probably Charlie, Nippy and Simon Lennon - who had a great game after coming back from a year or more out with injury. 

The Portadown #15 was a right wee skite, tried to get about 3 different men sent off, got a yellow for his diving late on.

Madden beat the 'bridge by around 5 or 6, something like that.

[corn02]

Dromintee won by four - Shane Carroll with the only goal.

[twotwocharlie]

madden 2-10 ( 1-3 to the ref) Bridge 0-12

[Sandy Hill]

Keady beat St Peter's by 10 points to 4 - both teams had penalties saved!

[rattle-the-net]

Was at the cruppin game, poor first half from a cruppin point of view... clans should have seen it out but to be fair to cruppin they came right out at the start of the second half and never stopped!! cruppen missed a free right at the end for the win.

[Real1995]

Both Mullaghabwn and Dromintee were strong in defense but up front the both lacked scoring power minus Micheal O'Rourke and John Ferris.....

Strong Dromintee team selected Other than Shane O'Neill and MOR missing 2nite, would there be anybody else pushin in2 their 1st choice 15 Corn?

[Ping Pong Santa]

I thought Dromintee did alright up front against a Mullaghbane side that put 11-12 men behind the ball and at times were hard to break down. Dromintee missed a few scoring chances so the lead should have been more. There only ever looked to be one winner in this one.

Dromintee 1-08 Mullaghbane 0-07

Clans drew with Cruppin at Davitt Park. Not 100% on the exact scoreline but i think it was something like 0-12 to 1-09

u happy enough with that result illdecide or more disappointed?you have many younger lads playing?

There were plenty of young guys playing today and thats only a good thing for the future but there are 2 or 3 passengers on the team at the minute but i don't really wanna discuss that matter. I am disapointed with the result in a way as i feel a few subtle changes could have made a we difference but as Fitz pointed out we could very well have lost it too so i suppose 1 point is better than none...

There seems have been a right few draws today...

P.S. the referee was good today and had a decent game...(Malachy McNicholl)

malachy mcnicholl?? you must have been among the clans men drinking on the side of the field?? the referee was dessie mcdonnell. and yes from a clans perspective he had a great game.

anyway, we had a shite first half and done a lot better in the second so a draw was a fair result even though we had a chance to win it.

Would be close enough Real. Ronin McCoy is out all year and he would have started but, other than that, it would have been close enough.

[armaghniac]

Cross seem to have lost a brave percentage of their support since their last match. Must be the increased journey and higher ticket prices.

Nothing to do with the quality of the opposition, I suppose?
Mind you there was a fair few at Longford where the opposition wasn't wonderful.

Sorry about that...wrong name. Yes Dessie McDonnell had a good game and in fairness he didn't really have any big calls to make, the game was poor enough which was all about 1st half to Clans and the 2nd to Cruppin.

I sesnsed a we bit of sarcasim there about the ref favouring the Clans TBH i thought he got most decisions right for both teams and the only problem i have with the refeering in Armagh in general is your not allowed to touch your opponent now and its a free kick. We played a friendly there last Thursday night and a hurling referee done the match and the tackling and hitting he allowed was 10 times that of the Armagh refeering.
