Lots of complaints about Martial and Rashford not getting enough playing time. Can any of you tell what big club would have Martial and Rashford as their main men?

Rashford has played enough for his age, but Martial was flying until January and Sanchez was preferred over him yet had 20 terrible games in a row.  Martial gets the odd sub appearance and if he didn't set the world alight he was publicly criticized and benched for 4/5 games.  Double standards.  Martial and Rashford are strikers at the end of the day and don't get a look in in their preferred position.  We are judging them in positions that aren't their own.

I did ask the question what big clubs would have either in their best starting 11?  Barca, RM, PSG, Bayern, City, Liverpool.. don't think so.

Yeah I know Liverpool aren't a big club ... just put em in there for comedy value lol

Tyrone have lodged an appeal regarding both being allowed to play 15  during second half of extra time
As the rules don’t allow it
But ffs if that is the rule they were hardly disadvantaged

Don't agree with the appeal but can understand it after putting in the effort all year. I'd imagine the antics of some of the Armagh management team may have influenced the decision to push ahead with appeal.

Reason Armagh are in the wrong, as I understand, was they had a man sent off during the first period of extra time and went back to 15 for the extra, extra time. I believe they weren't entitled to do this. You can go back to full 15 after the main match finished but not subsequent periods of extra time.

You are correct in your belief. Both teams were reduced to 13 men and both went back to 15 for extra extra time so it wasn't just Armagh that did this. Tyrone should take their beatin here.

That tackle was a complete disgrace, that lad deliberately meant to injure Rodgers. Football has become a joke, people getting yellow cards every time someone is cute enough to duck into a tackle and u can take a man out like this and get SFA.

Is it any worse an idea than playing Mark Lynch as a sweeper though??

Well that's not really what I was saying Rawhide. What team is selected or what the manager has or has not done is not my point.

It's people who boast that they never miss a Derry match, have all the full kit clobber but would not be seen at a club match from end of the year to the next or have any involvement in their club, and are then claiming ownership of GAA in Derry that get my goat.

Whatever team lines out on Sunday lets get along to Celtic Park and give them our support. No one is expecting anything so we have nothing to lose! Doire Abu

Agree totally. All true Doire Gaels will be there supporting no matter what the chances or result. Doire abú!

+1 . Well said

This ballacks sickens my shit, getting a jersey on and turning up at county matches a few times a year does not qualify you as any sort of a gael in my book.

Doubt if Donegal will even need to get into 2nd gear tbh. Championship used to be all about belief, the underdog having a puncher's chance in a straight knockout. Sadly the way the game has evolved that excitement is no longer there.
