Title: Ulster Minor Football Championship 2010
Post by: hobit hunter on May 10, 2010, 06:15:46 PM
Any word on the favourites for this year's minors.  Armagh have 2 returning and 2 from the St Colmans team, I expect the Down team to be helped too by the St Colmans Hogan winners.  Outside of that and the Tyrone team that lost the minor league final are there any front runners to be watched?

Good win for Armagh 2-8 to 2-7. Derry got two goals in injury time but Armagh easily the better team on the day

Hard to know what to make of the minor match today. Armagh looked as good as last year at times, but faded badly for long patches. We look very strong around the midfield area. Carragher is a super player, and Gough could be as good if he learns to use the ball a bit better. The forwards don't look as potent as last year's, although those lads set the bar high. Reckon if we'd had a couple of forwards of the calibre of McVerry or Grugan today we might have won by double figures. That said, Rafferty and Stevenson both look lively. Derry's two goals were very well taken, if they'd come five minutes earlier we could've been in bother. It looked like they had given up before they bagged the first one.

Derry 2-08 Armagh 2-09

TWO LATE goals from Aaron Devlin weren't enough to secure a replay for Derry as Armagh hung on for a one-point victory in a game that they initially seemed to have wrapped up early in the second half.

A brace of major scores from full forward Paul McGeown had seen Armagh lead by 2-9 to 0-8 with one minute of regulation time remaining, but Devlin hammered two pile drivers to see the visitors looking mightily relieved at the final whistle.

Derry started brightly and led when Benny Quigg pointed from 30 metres, but were rocked by a goal on nine minutes.

The third quarter would prove decisive as Armagh took over and built up a cushion that would prove sufficient. Barry Seeley started the onslaught kicking a free from the right which was followed by a point from McGeown.

When a flowing move finished with McGeown sliding home his second goal on 38 minutes Armagh led by 2-5 to 0-5 and Derry looked a beaten side.

ARMAGH : M McNeice; R McCaughey, C Hoey, R Finnegan; D Nugent, J King (0-1) , N McConville; P Carragher, C Gough; S McCoy, A Forker (0-2), B Seeley (0-2, frees); C Stevenson (0-1), P McGeown (2-2), R Rafferty (0-1). Subs : A Findon for McCoy (48 mins), R Conlon for Stevenson (55 mins).

DERRY : D McKindless; R Ferris, R Moore, K McKaigue; T Rafferty, N Rocks, C Rocks (0-1) ; C Mullan, A Devlin (2-0) ; C Spiers, B Quigg (0-4, two free), T Martin (0-1) ; R Bell, F Bell (0-1, free) , C Devlin. Subs : D Johnston for Mullan (38 mins), B Óg McGilligan for C Devlin (40 mins), G Keane for Martin (49 mins), F Duffin (0-1) for N Rocks (49 mins).

Referee: Eamon McHugh (Tyrone).

You've obviously never studied the team of '83. Was it 5 Glenullin men, 4 Dungiven, a Faughanvale player, etc.
Not a fair comment.  The team has to built around boys who are playing well for their clubs.  The old days of club form dictating one's position on the team are over.  There are training sessions available.  My nephew is a cracking club player but didn't make the cut last year.

That's a strange one, you'd think Crossmaglen would've been ideal for this match and basically guaranteed a bumper crowd with it being so close to the Monaghan border.

great finish yesterday by Derry but Armagh deserved the win.
Derry young lads will hopefully learn that even though down by 5 or so points, you should still take your points in case you happen to get a goal (and then another) !!

Armagh missed loads towards the end that would have killed off the game if theyd taken their chances. Better , stronger and more mature side won. Best of luck to them.

Strange team selection for Derry though, looks like they had better men on the sideline and brought them in far too late !

exactly. derry had ptobly the two best midfeilders in derry on the bench, Brian og magilligan and Denver Johnston, when they came on the changed every thing. also great corner back young Marty Mc closkey,  i watched him in action for dungiven in last years championship. surly a manager who gets beat in county final by 11 points should not be in charge?

the big 4 teams, kilrea, ballienderry, Glen and magherfelt, too many selected from them, great players, cant play as team, will never win you a big match, proved this year and last

I think Connacht have something too, checked the connacht website, but it was too crap to navigate!
I think it'd be great for minors, a chance to have at least two championship games for every team - whatever about seniors not gelling, for these lads it may be their first and last championship game for their county.  You can play all the friendlies you like but they're not the same.  I'd definitely be in favour of keeping the first game as the curtain raiser for the senior game too.

Can anyone shed any light on the incident were Conan Grugan got sent off with an Antrim player?

Just came in after it. Tyrone minors ran rings round Antrim for long periods, always a man running, looked good, but then was a poor enough Antrim outfit. Half back line was good, Deeny and Sludden, two good players. Shea McGarrity at corner back, Conlon in MF and Thomas Canavan at CHF all played well.

Found lacking up front with the finishing from O'Neill and McCullugh at times, but the loss of a player wouldn't have helped and it can take a minor team a few games to find their form such is the nature of the competition. Still, plenty of positive signs.

The Antrim no 3 was "assigned" to Conan Grugan. He was giving him a bit of "attention" and the two of them started pushing and swinging a bit.

Ref's officials alerted the ref who issued 2 striaght reds and who indicated that both struck with their fists.  Looked harsh.

any craic about the Armagh-Monaghan game on Saturday night in Newry? Monaghan were useful last year when they won up in Derry but Armagh had too much when they met Monaghan in Clones in the semis. The Armagh team is different in personnel mainly but still a fine team. What about Monaghan? Maybe some of the Armagh lads will see it pretty much as a favourable venue, especially the Colmans lads (is there more than Gough?), whose MacRory q-final was played there under lights. While I'm at it, what about Donegal-Down on Sunday? I'm taking Down here, primarily off the back of Colman's success again, but are Donegal good this year under Mulgrew? They have home advantage and maybe a few lads from the U-21 squad who nearly won the All Ireland. And there's Cavan-Fermanagh, that's 3 minor games in 24 hours and then none for 3 weeks, unless there's a replay..

Armagh responded well to a super goal by Monaghan. We were cruising at HT but Monaghan took over at midfield for large parts of the 2nd half. Have to say that the match was refereed well, the ref let a lot go and the game was all the more entertaining for it. Best for Armagh IMO was the lad McCaughley at CB. McGeown did most of the scoring although the goal was a fluke, a mishit shot which looped over the keeper's head.

Was at the match tonight in Newry . Quite a big crowd particularly from Armagh, but Newry as a venue on a Saturady evening must be questioned . The queue going into Newry was terrible. Many of the crowd arrived late . There were little or no programmes so I find it difficult to name the team. No-one around me had one and I went to three different places looking for some but there weren't to be found. It was a fiver in so I suppose that wasn't to bad. As for the game itself Armagh won out comfortably enough at the end but they had to endure a fifteen minute fright in the second half where they went from eight points up to leading by two with ten minutes to go. Monaghan scored their goal and at the same time Peter Carragher was carried of. Things didnt look good but they introduced a sub number twenty . Conlon I think was his name and he definetly made a difference . showed well for the ball and as time ran out for Monaghan should have been beaten by more. To be fair had Monaghan kicked the ball in high to their full forward more often or indeed even kicked the ball more often well we might have had a different story. Time and time again good tackiling by Armagh particularly in the first half turned possesion . Monaghan insisted on short passing and paid dearly. Armagh's forwards were dangerous and Paul McGeown alongside his clubman Collie stevenson were a constabnt thorn in The Monaghan defence . Monaghan were physically bigger but armagh had the more skilful players . Number 15 for Armagh had an excellent game . Maybe some one can help me with the name . Niall McConville played quite well and Barry Seeley hit three or four good points from Frees. McGewon I thought also did quite well when moved out to midfield. A word of praise for the referee, he let the game flow quite a bit and blew up the hand pass only three times throughout the game . Thought he was fairly even to both teams . The handling by both teams was quite poor and there were quite a few unforced errors and Armagh gave the ball away needlessly a few times . With 7 or eight minutes to go things didnt look good but the sign of a good team is how you react to these challenges and I must say they stood up well . Carragher and his partner made some excellent catches . I was disappointed with Aidan forker at number 11 . I rate him very highly and he just wasn't really in the game. Number 2 McCaughley I think was excellent as was Mattie Mc Neice in goals . Overall this is a reasonably good team and there is every chance of retaining Ulster . I am sorry I dont have the team line out . Treanor came on as a sub and did quite well. Forwards win matches and I thought the workrate from them in particular was excellent. A very workmanlike performance I would say . If they can play for a full sixty minutes they will take a bit of stopping. Well done lads

Fermanagh were only a point behind until the last 15 when Cavan pulled away.

Too right mate, it's called the leaving cert down here in the Republic and it clearly includes a module as to how to use your own (as opposed to HMG sponsored) laptop after you've engaged your brain cells.

M Donaghy,
E Deeney;
H Og Conlon,
P McNulty;
R Donnelly,

Can anyone confirm if the Armagh v Cavan Ulster minor semi has been changed to July 4th?

Interestingly the last team to beat Armagh minors in championship football was Cavan 2 years ago

Armagh minors are blown away by front two - Cavan 0-14 Armagh 1-4 - Monday, 16 June 2008

Cavan made their point in emphatic fashion as they leapt into this year's Ulster MFC semi-final at the expense of a fitful Armagh crew at Kingspan Breffni Park.

The visitors got a huge leg-up in the third minute when persistence and precision by Robbie Tasker saw him rifle the ball into the Cavan net but that was as good as it got for them.

Armagh proceeded to flatter to deceive and it needed two point blank saves from keeper Ciaran Toman in the ninth and 20th minutes to prevent Cavan taking the lead.

Cavan continued to force the pace and half-back Colm Smith powered forward to cut Armagh's lead to the minimum (0-4 to 1-2) by the 26th minute.

Three minutes later the visitors extended their lead to two points courtesy of a Rory Grugan free but it wasn't until the 55th that the Orchard's labours bore fruit again.

The hosts attacked Armagh's 1-3 to 0-5 lead with vim and vigour and, despite two more last-gasp saves from Tasker, edged in front in the 34th minute when Niall Murray pointed.

Armagh were largely impotent up front and only for Toman, their agony would have been pronounced much earlier.

As it was, Cavan full-forward Kevin Tierney and colleague Niall McDermott dovetailed superbly to open up the Armagh rearguard.

Armagh managed just a single point in the second half and their woes were completed two minutes from time when midfielder Stephen Sheridan got his marching orders.

Cavan: Alan O'Mara; Damien Barkey, Mark Leddy, Dara Tighe; Kevin Meehan, Fergal Flanagan, Colm Smith (0-1); Gearoid McKiernan (0-2), Oisin Minagh (0-1); Niall Murray (0-5, three frees), Niall McDermott (0-3, one free), Niall Smith; Barry Reilly, Kevin Tierney (0-1), Robert Maloney Derham.Subs; Conor McClarey (0-1) for Robert Maloney Derham; Mark Kelly for Barry Reilly; Sean Cooney for Kevin Tierney.

Armagh: Ciaran Toman; Ciaran McKendry, David Markey, Barry McKenna; Declan McKenna, Anto Duffy, John Grimley; James Donnelly, Stephen Sheridan; Rory Grugan (0-3, two frees), Tony Donnelly (0-1), Eugene McVerry; Gavin McParland, Oisin McKeever, Robbie Tasker (0-1).Subs; David Lavery for Ciaran McKendry; John McCarron for Oisin McKeever; Karl McVerry for Barry McKenna; Stefan Campbell for Eugene McVerry.

Referee: Leo Smyth (Down)

Fantastic win for Tyrone who like the seniors looked really under the cosh for the first 15 minutes but who went on to dominate the rest of the 2nd half.

The ref seemed to want to keep the ball in the Tyrone half of the pitch for the 2nd half but the Tyrone defence did well under enormous pressure.

Must have been at a different game than me! Armagh won the majority of ball around midfield, created the most scoring chances and kept their discipline much better. If they had have lost they would have said they threw it away. Cavan No. 14 played very well. As for the sending off the referee had no choice. A silly tackle by the Cavan player when he was already on a yellow.

I agree. I thought Armagh were the better team although Cavan had a huge desire and work-rate which made up for a lot of it. Good to see a solid effort from a Cavan team. If we could instill that in our seniors I'd be a lot happier.

http://www.youtube.com/user/UlsterGAA// - see Armagh's goal and a decent goal chance for Cavan. I thought there was a big clash in styles - Armagh slowly but surely build-up while Cavan just booted the ball forward when under no pressure and at vital times. They paid for it.

I thought Armagh were easily the better team today and should have been out of sight particularly after the Armagh number 6 whose name escapes me moved on to Cavan's number 14.  That said Armagh's shooting was at times very poor today and the stupidly tried to protect the lead for the last ten minutes when they could and should have pushed on for scores.  A big improvement will be required for the final and subsequent match

Post by: mountainboii on July 05, 2010, 10:28:07 AM
Great result for Armagh, not so great display. Not a hope against Tyrone if that many lads are below par again. Must've hit somewhere around 15-20 wides, should've been long home and hosed instead of having heart in mouth moments in injury time as Cavan went forward. In fairness to Cavan, they defended well and forced a lot of bad shooting. Probably took the sending off to nudge Armagh free a bit, it killed off Cavan as an attacking force but they remained tight in defence. The goal was fortunate enough. Very big Cavan support there, fair play to them.

From an Armagh point of view:

Keeper was fine. Was it he that got a touch on a Cavan shot that hit the post and went out for a 45? If it was, then it was a fantastic save. Couldn't understand why he was so eager to take quick, short kick outs in the second half when we were utterly dominant at midfield.

FB line looked ropey at times until King went back in there. Looks like he's going to do the McKenna job this year, and pick up the opposition dangerman.

HB line went forward well. Nugent was impressive.

Midfield were totally on top. Even if the rest of the team aren't firing at 100%, such a powerful midfield will always give you a chance.

Thought the HF line played a bit too deep. McKenna was a very good addition, arguably the pick of the forwards. Didn't happen for Forker. You can be forgiven for getting your barings wrong once and dropping a shot short, but to do it three times in quick succession is beyond careless. Seeley is a good footballer, but needs to impose himself more on the game in open play.

FF had a bad day. At least, I hope it was just a bad day and that they'll be better in the final. Didn't happen at all for McGeown, but everyone has bad days, no point going into a huff about it. Stevenson showed very well for the ball, and had to deal with a lot of shit ball into him. But he could do with knowing his limitations a bit better. A lot of silly shots when passes were better options. I like Rafferty as a player, but he just couldn't get on the ball enough. Maybe he was well marked, or maybe it was just one of those games.

Conlon and McParland came on for McGeown and Forker. McParland hadn't time to do much. Conlon got a longer run, but couldn't really get into the game either.

But, back in an Ulster final to everyone's huge credit. Games against Tyrone and Cork/ Kerry to look forward to. Hopefully it'll be a busy month ahead with both seniors and minors.

It may have been, it looks close. if you look at the video, gough (9) is standing outside the square so definitely wasnt him who scored the goal. Couldn't work that out myself when i picked up the paper this morning

Tyronies, what's the craic with your team?

I'd expect Armagh to be unchanged on Sunday. Forwards will have to up their game big time. Backs will have to keep a close eye on Canavan and Grugan, King might be able to cope with one but I don't know if we have another outstanding man marker. I'd be confident enough that Gough and Carragher will get a good stranglehold around the middle.

Winners play Kerry, so an extra incentive for the Tyrone boys anyway.

Well if yesterday was bad, today was f**king diabolical. Thoroughly depressed after watching that stuff. It's not the result that frustrates, I expected us to be up against it. It's just so disheartening to see the next generation of Armagh footballers playing the same failed football as the seniors. All natural flair replaced with slow, mechanical, predictable garbage. Players looked over trained and slow, there was no zip, no one out in front. Tyrone won the vast majority of the 50/50 balls and everything that broke around the middle, Armagh only came into it a bit when Tyrone started to pull up with a 9 or 10 point lead. Armagh football is going to rot away in the doldrums unless some fresh ideology is introduced at all levels. This relentless hand passing is getting us no where.

There's no point talking about player performance, none did themselves justice. Peter Carragher was huge miss. Not only is he our best player, but also the captain and leader of the team. If he's back we might have a sniff against Cork, although I wouldn't be very hopeful either way. It has to be said that Tyrone are very impressive and will take some beating this year, they could've won by 20 points today if they'd wanted.

Outstanding by the minors today, MOTM could have went to any of a dozen players. Grugan and Conlon ruled mid-field and Deeny was excellent again as was McGeery at CB. This is a very good minor team, if the FF line can find a bit more shooting form they could well lift another AI.

That Armagh team were very very poor though. Hard to believe they're the defending champions, a shadow of last year's team. Not sure how they got to the final, Down would have trounced them.

Tyrone didn't forget how they threw away the 1st round game to Armagh last year at the death. Donnelly's 45's were perfection.

will the Armagh v Cork game be played in Portlaoise????

You'd assume so if it's a stand alone fixture. The senior quarter finals are also on that weekend, so it might be chucked on before one of them somewhere.

Double header with Tyrone v Kerry in Portlaoise / Newbridge / Tullamore I would have thought. Croke Park would be nice though.

Depends on the QF draws - Tyrone/Kerry minor game could be the start of a triple header including their 2 senior games.

Who put Dublin out? Must be a serious good team.

Outstanding by the minors today, MOTM could have went to any of a dozen players. Grugan and Conlon ruled mid-field and Deeny was excellent again as was McGeery at CB. This is a very good minor team, if the FF line can find a bit more shooting form they could well lift another AI.

That Armagh team were very very poor though. Hard to believe they're the defending champions, a shadow of last year's team. Not sure how they got to the final, Down would have trounced them.

Tyrone didn't forget how they threw away the 1st round game to Armagh last year at the death. Donnelly's 45's were perfection.

Yeh, very good performance.
Young Grugan is a very good player, but he has a very short fuse that, unless he learns to control, he'll struggle with discipline as he gets older.

Not really too hard to believe - i'm not sure if any of the starting 15 on Sunday actually were in the starting 15 last year. That's a completely different team. This isn't senior football! Most Armagh supporters would have been happy to see that new team get through to an Ulster final. They trounced Down in the league by the way, for what it was worth!

Would this channel have recorded the final online by any chance, so it would be available to watch online?
