Armagh v Kerry

[imtommygunn]

There are no angels but trying to present yourselves as angels while being less angelic and getting away with it does tend to annoy people.

Sure Dublin had Philly McMahon who was as dirty as they come and them Smalls aren't good either.

Every successful team has them so I don't know why they cry when other teams are at it against them too.

The difference is that the Dubs didn't moan about the rough treatment or complain that they weren't being allowed to play their so called lovely football unhindered. Although they didn't hire Paddy Tally to play lovely football.

In fairness the Dubs always won bar Donegal. Kerry couldn't handle that Tyrone team.

Tyrone and Armagh men in agreemwnt,

Strange, strange times

Very strange but as long as the down ones don't start agreeing with us Im ok

no chance of that lol,  though I hope the Armagh support can get in early to cheer on their neighbours in the Europa league final 🤪

Cheering for Down or Laois? It would be like having a ballot paper with only the TUV and DUP on it.

Tbf the down men are our neighbours so will give them a shout .

Listening to the various pundits talking about Kerry and its apparent the narrative is that Kerry want to play football but aren't allowed by the negative tactics of the opposition and that only Dublin and Kerry play open football .
It's a very simplistic interpretation and one that will take hold over the next 10/12 days
The referee in this match will be key.
gough or lane ?
Just pray it's not thin eejit who did the Ulster semi final against down.

Do you mean Sean Hurson who referred the game from the sideline or the man with the whistle that day?

Hurson was woeful in Galway game too.

but people recall Kelly getting stuck into Galway

Interesting way of phrasing an eye gouge. Things of a particularly trampish nature like that are neither easily nor quickly forgotten. Nor should they be.

I didn't phrase it to minimise it, it was a disgrace. Yet that was one of the better games of 2022 and that event came at the end and that should not be given undue prominence either. A team cannot be characterised only by what a sub does at the end of a game.

He wasn't even a sub that day either!

I find that narrative very hard to listen to. It's basically an anti Northern thing in the southern media. You never hear it said about the Connacht teams. Derry have now dragged Mayo and Kerry down to play this horrible game. Armagh now will do the same. The best games of the year have all involved Ulster teams as well.

Tyrone the only team to beat Armagh in Championship since 2021.*

Donegal in Ulster 2022 gave us a beating in first round.

[inroundthesquare]

Tyrone last team to beat them then

Impressive record for Armagh, semi final is deserved for their consistency over the past few years

In a game that didn't really matter, those group games are not really proper cut and thrust championship matches. The consistency goes a bit under the radar but it has been fairly remarkable for 2 full seasons now. We've kept a clean sheet in defence in 13 out of 15 League and championship games this season and one of those was a defeat to Cork in a dead rubber League match at the end of the League.

Anyone know if another batch of tickets will be released? Was coming home from NYC today and all that's left is rubbish behind goals, or very top of upper Cusack.
