Armagh Club football & hurling

[pintsofguinness]

Bias or not, am I wrong in what I said?

[TacadoirArdMhacha]

Yes you are wrong and your obsession is getting out of hand at this stage.

With only 2 championship matches and a pooe league campaign there wouldn't have been an awful lot of candidates but Ciaran played very well in both the championship matches and has been consistently good for Armagh for the last couple of years.

[pintsofguinness]

Well tac, what's the craic 


I note you can't argue that he's a good role model. I don't know how he got it, maybe he threatened county board officials again?

[DMarsden]

Was it an award for county role model of the year?

[pintsofguinness]

I'd think it should be considered plus his league performances.

Not sure about the league but he only mangaed a 1/2 against Derry and although he was decent against Donegal i can't re-call him doing anything out of the ordinary in the league either. Although on the other hand who else would have got it.

Pints, you are prob half right there it just so happens to be a Cullyhanna man thats why they have their doubts about your remarks. Other than that all the rest of the awards were prob justified

[seeheartalk]

Still no handballer of the year? Heard on the 5FM show last night that it is the second year in a row that it hasn't been awarded despite being in the dinner dance programe. Whats that about? Last year Armagh had a world champion, this year we have had Charlie Shanks and James Doyle competing on the international scene.
Oh jesus was it one dry dinner dance. Why was Joe Kernan not given an award?

[DMarsden]

AFAIK the players vote for their player of the year so you'd probably need to amend the criteria you give them. i'd heard there is a whole separate night for big joe's awards?

[winsamsoon]

Yeah it is Dennis Hollywood and the guy from the harps doing the training and i here is a tight shift. That club brugges is some team they done the deciding last night

I would have thought someone other than a sc**bag (that rules out Mal Mackin) should have got it!

POG, why laugh at Cross for the team of the year?

[pintsofguinness]

It was club of the year and I just thought it was predictable.

[corn02]

Sadly they always probably deserve it.

[pintsofguinness]

If it was for club team of the year they would.
It's for club of the year which isn't just about winning.

Sorry to tell you pints but when you have the mentality of "isn't just about winning" that's why some teams will never win anything. If they don't believe and have the will to win they'll always be a looser (and i don't mean you personnally before you get roped into me )
