Cross were leading Granemore by 1 point 2-9 to 1-11 with 2 minutes left in under 21 championship.
Ref went down with knee injury. After treatment he restarted the match but went down again almost immediately and game was abandoned.

The Ogs must have got a new Physio recently and he is doing a brilliant job.

It was amazing that not one of their players went down with the dreaded cramp during sundays county final.

In contrast when they beat us in the league earlier in the year every one of their players, with the exception of the goalkeeper, suffered from cramp in the last ten minutes.

Well done Physio.

Thanks win sam soon.

Glad to see some people would like to see a Rangers win.
Not much support on the Armagh thread

Any of you Ogs men at the big challenge match last weekend.....Ogs v Armagh All Stars ??

The Ogs may not have owned the Athletic Grounds but it was their "home ground" for years.

WIN SAM SOON

I can understand your club or Drumintee complaining about having to play a county final in Cross, but it's a bit rich coming from the Ogs Chairman seeing that they have played more county finals on their own pitch than Cross have,

The Ogs Chairman was complaining in yesterdays Irish Star about the county final being played in Cross.
Was he having us on or could he be serious?

Cross beat harps by 7 points
Both teams short a number of regulars

Cross also beat ogs in Silverbridge by 7 points in 2001, so the neutral venue didn't help them much that night

The senior championship final has been officially fixed for Oliver Plunket Park Crossmaglen.

You fell for it Pints !!!!

Where does your Chairman Donal Walsh come from.

Again...ever heard of "People in glass houses"

Cross will be taking the cruppen threat very seriously given their championship tradition and the fact that they have a one hundred percent success record against us in our last 5 meetings even though it has been some time since we last met
Prior to 1978 cross generally had the upper hand against cruppen in championship encounters. We were Armagh title holders when we met them in the first round of the championship in 1978 in mullabawn Cruppen were leading by a point with a couple of minutes left Cross had about 5 opportunities to get an equalising point but we kept going for a goal to win the match and they held on to beat us by a point.
Our present club chairman Tommy Coleman was full back for Cruppen that day.
Cruppen proceeded to beat us in the championship each year up to and including the final of1982 and we haven't met since.
So whilst we expect to scrape home by a couple of points we certainly wont be treating them lightly.
