Armagh Club football & hurling

[armagh leg-end]

Tbf should have picked a captain that won't get sent off and miss a pile of matches, disgracing the county in the process.

Only my opinion though.

Remind me when Ciaran last got a red card for Armagh ONL?

Why do you not watch your county?? Should have had one against Monaghan anyway, was at that match... I suspect he gets let off with these incidents every match he plays, and it all gets brushed under the rug...

So that's one incident whereyou think he might have been sent off but the referee disagreed, most spectators thought it was just a mis timed challenge and the Ulster Council even over-turned the yellow card itself. This is Ciaran's 5th year starting for Armagh and I can only remember one harsh sending off for pulling Peter Canavan's jersey (why its a yellow card to pull any else's jersey and a red to pull Canavan's is another story). What you suspect is neither here nor there. Yes Ciaran has had disciplinary issues in the past and was maybe lucky enough a couple of times not to be sent off but his discipline has hugely improved in the last couple of years. He's an All Ireland winning captain and a superb footballer who well deserves the honour of captaining his county.

Here Here Tacadoir,

Im a huge fan of Mc Keevers, he is only man for the job, he puts 100% into every, pass, tackle, shot, and im glad he was handed the captains armband, i would love to see him in CHB on the 31st

true true!  only man for the job!

[pearseog]

would actually rather have him in the full back line somewhere to mark the danger men of tyrone. along with andy he's one of the best man-markers we have

Fixtures for the weekend anyone?

I believe we have Ogs this weekend, should be a nice one.

Marty injured but, good thing in case he tries to overthrow our manager eh PearseOg?

Probably will have him doing a man to man job on someone, he never give Stevie O Neill a sniff of it in the Ulster final replay in 05,

[TacadoirArdMhacha]

St Pat's beat Whitecross in the B league tonight. I made the final score 2-14 to 1-10 with veteran Neil McConville the man of the match by a country mile.

[Goats Do Shave]

& Ballyhegan B's recorded their 3rd win of the season with a convincing win over the Nab. Maybe 10 points or so in it at the end. Very young & speedy Ballyhegan forward line, great to see!

Lads i may have mentioned this b4 or not...can't remember. But have you or anyone in your club ever used any comments made on a site like this for motivation for a game...?

The reason i ask is some dude on Orchard County who claims to be a Clans man wrote a few things about us saying we'd be relegated by July in bottom place etc etc and last week before one of our games our manager pulled the piece of paper out of his pocket that he had printed of from Orchard county and read it out to the lads. Of course there was a reaction to it but i personally would never take anyone's comments serious that were on a forum board like this or any other board. I was more surprised he read Orchard County TBH (i'm sure if he was looking some sense he could have listened to us )

[lurganblue]

i'd be more inclined to use newspaper articles or a source like that than orchard county because there are a right few gimps post on that site.  The clans players dont need to read posts on forums to be motivated as i'm sure every time they drink in the club or listen to a conversation on the town about the team someone will bad mouth them.

how'd the b's do last night?

My poor attempt at humour has been lost on you.

I will definitely be attending the Ogs and Dromintee game. Although the season is only commencing it should be a great game involving 2 of the strongest teams in the county. Dromintee will be seeking a second victory and the ogs will be looking a first win.

Plenty of county talent will be on show with the o'roukes, shannon, mcevoy, martin and the 2 o'neills for dromintee and clarke, mallon, duffy, rafferty, donnelly etc for ogs.

i could see this being another draw.

Will be a good indication of where both teams are at the minute although i wouldnt read a great deal into it.

[illdecide]

Corn i still dunno what was mean't out of that, i'm prob a bit slow on the old joke thingie so ignore my question. Can't think straight at the mo between hookers at the weekend (Newcastle stag doo) and job ready to calf my heads fried
