🎟� Ticket info to come as received

A very obvious potential banana skin for Armagh, Derry sitting in the long grass fresh as paint waiting to ambush us. Have the Derry injuries cleared up?

I get the feeling there'll be zero Ulster Final hangover and we'll be well motivated tho.

Hopefully at the Box-it ground there will be no boxing

I really hope Derry can muster enough in this group to knock Dublin out.

I have a sneaky feeling Dublin can go to Salthill and win this weekend though.

Have a feeling ourselves and Donegal will get it tight enough against our Ulster opposition in the first games.

Derry are fresh and well rested, I'd say they have plenty of bodies back from the league game, however both ourselves and Donegal are fecking hard to beat at home. Think if we have close to a full deck we'll have too much for them.

A huge ask for our lads to get themselves back at it again and get the minds and bodies right, a few lads definitely weren't 100% against Donegal, but Aaron, Joe and Rian could possibly feature against Derry.

Armagh were rather subdued in the last two years in the first game against Westmeath, but very much got their act together against Derry. This year they need to skip the easy going stage. Even score difference might become relevant so there should be no easing up.

Any type of win the first day out after another Ulster final loss will take, wouldn't be thinking too much about score difference at this stage.  Armagh should not be taking Derry lightly and this is certainly not a game that they can ease into or they will get caught out.  If Armagh bring the level of performance they brought to Westmeath game in 2023/2024 they will not win the game. 

There's little talk about Derry and that will suit them.  2011 was similar story in Ulster semi final Armagh expected to win and Eoin Bradley gave Armagh the run around in emphatic Derry win.  There will be a few scores to settle from a Derry perspective following recent league game also.

Big question after the final is what sort of state the Armagh (and Donegal) squad will be in with regards to injuries and knocks especially after the extra-time and the afters.

Armagh hold all the cards here.
Derry have gone through a prolonged period of turmoil with managers and injuries, whereas Armagh have had stability, 2 teams worth of 1st team players on the bench and an AI title.

Derry haven't suddenly become a bad team, but the odds are heavily stacked against them in this group.

The expectation will be on Armagh to win.
The hope will be that Derry win

Only stand tickets on sale. I can't work out if I can get behind the goals. Ticketing system not helpful at all.
