On another point you are clearly an Ogs man and your f**k'in scared shitless of Cross winning knowing you's present no challenge what so ever if you even make it that far.
And  a final point to end on, you are clearly not liked on this board judging by some previous posts, everybody can't be wrong about you surely

who are you on about?



oi rufus! I'm hurt, over on orchardcounty asking people for help!  Is there something wrong with us?

Don't worry pints it's not you, read back a page & you'll see who i mean.

Uladh gets all defensive when jimmy mc kee is criticised for some reason. Then he tries to attack posters on a personal level because he hasn't the intelligene to argue with facts.

i couldn't have scripted a more ironic post for you. if you're an example i'm glad i don't have the intelli gene. DNA ain't what is was.

Catch a grip of yourself goh4205. With the standard of refereeing in this county over the past couple of years, you are going to the bother of registering on this board to complain about a referee who got a couple of decisions wrong for both teams. McKee was excellent on sunday night and any referee who is able to maintain a level playing field with the amount of intimidation Crossmaglen bring to bear on him should be commended.

You are obviously a crossman and while everyone has club blinkers on you cannot be serious about the decisions you picked out.

Was at the Cross - Dromintee game and as a neutral I thought Jimmy McKee was a disgrace.  Marty O'Rourke should have got a straight red for his strike on the young corner back in the first half, but instead he give's marty's marker a yellow.

did you imagine this? McKeown finally received a yellow card for his fourth personal foul on o'rourke. he should have been off.

He also blew a cross half forward up i think for catching a clean kickout

stand side in the first half. blatant push in the back by mcnamee.

and then at the end he gives a fifty which never was

i was in the stand and from 100m its difficult to see minor deflections. there was hardly a complaint from the cross players though and the only argument were from the 2 cross mentors who actually arrived on the 50 yard line to contest the decision! i'm sure that helped in the long run...

to top that of he  give Marty O'Rourke a free, when he should have blown for over carrying.

Very marginal decision but 3 players tackling one forward more often than not results in a free in. hardly a "disgrace" as you label it.

From what I hear from a few lads today, they would do anything to get rid of Cross, pretty sad if this is the case when the best team to come out of Armagh & Ulster for years and probably never to be repeated, it's a very sad reflection on gaelic football and on fellow gaels.

Of course. Everyone should follow protocol and roll over for the mighty rangers

What is startling is that Cross didn't get every 50:50 decision for once.

Well once again i'm sorry to disappoint you that I'm not from Cross, but louth as i stated before and before you ask i do know people from Cross like you know people from lurgan/portadown or wherever.

I'm not gonna waste my time getting into an who did what, I was stating my point which i'm intitled to do & for that you seem to have no other choice but to attack me personally. maybe you and Jimmy have a thing going   and winsamsoon said you seem to go on the defensive whenever someone has a go at jimmy, so clearly a wee sore point for you, then again maybe you are Jimmy the man.  On another point you are clearly an Ogs man and your f**k'in scared shitless of Cross winning knowing you's present no challenge what so ever if you even make it that far.

well I'm glad someone else thinks he was a p***k and not just me.  I could have picked holes in a load of other silly things that he done.  My concern is really for players, no matter were they come from or play for.  when they train so hard to go out and get the kind of harsh treatment from a individual who may have an other motives is pretty sad, then again it even happens in the professional game as well!!   Liverpool/Chelsea yesterday.
regarding uladh,  he must be an ogs man by his comments and his defensive mode for Jimmy.   Maybe he was thinking if if I give cross f**k all and they loose, then surely the Ogs have a better chance of beating Dromintee more so than Cross, or is that been to cynical.

I think you're right SJ, it was the sub keeper. surely if you were going to take a man on to hit that free it was cathal o'rourke?

McKee did a good job all day i thought. a few dubious decisions each way here and there but very good overall performance. It's difficult to explain that to the kiddies (especially the ones who've gotten their daddies to go to the trouble to set up a username for them). McKeown was a lucky boy to stay on the field as i counted 5 personal fouls in the first 15 minutes and aidan o'rourke could have walked for a high challenge on mckenna but swings and roundabouts.

Armagh don't have many refs of McKee's calibre and especially very few who can withstand the cross "influence", so its a pity he can't do the replay.

Interesting after the game yesterday that the replay was immediately announced for next sunday then later the teams were informed it would be in 2 weeks time. The fact that john murtagh isn't eligible to play until the second week after his american stint wouldn't have influenced the change in heart?

I take it thats me you are refering to uladh,  sorry to disappoint you,but daddy didn't set it up for me, I quite capable of doing that for myself.  I agree there was a few challenges by Mckeown, but Marty's antics are a joke, as I said in my prevoius post he's a good player and lets himself down a bag full with his clown act.  I totally disagree with you on McKee's day out.  as I said prevoius as a neutral from Louth he gave Dromintee alot more than cross, did aidan even get a ticking for his challenge, not that i seen.
I was speaking to a few lads in the crowd & apparently that was cross's first game in 8 weeks apart from challenge games which never have the same bite.  I think they will be more deadly the next day out and I'd be very surprised if they let a 7 point lead go again.
also heard last night that the game is fixed for next saturday, same venue

Your right corn, I did see hearty exchanging a few verbs with Marty alright, but i  think his antics don't do him any favors at all.  He's a very good player, but a f**k'in yap most of the time on the pitch and this lets him down to be honest.  In saying that they don't really have much up front without him.  I was standing prety close to his strike in the first half, which to be fair was probably on the blnd side of the ref, he does this then acts the complete w**ker diving around like a clown.

If i were referee'in and he starting acting like that I'd show him a straight red, which is going to happen sooner or later, he could be a passanger in hind sight.

I hate picking out individuals, but Marty O'Rourke must be the biggest mouth in the country.  He was constinently at his marker trying to get him sent off and the dives he was getting away with was a joke.
If this is the best Ref in Armagh, he needs to look at himself in the mirror , it looked very clear to me that he was doing everything for Dromintee to snatch it.
If teams need the ref as well to beat cross then the standard outside cross must be pretty poor to say the least.
