Paddy O'Rourke named as new Armagh Manager

[Cúig huaire]

That this appointment would mean the end of stevie from killeavy

I was told a while back that McDonnell wont be back. Then again the man that told me that also told me that Grimley had the job and he had a few quid on it as well.

How wrong he was

[Cúig huaire]

Indeed, but no one could have predicted this a month ago.

[stew]

The decision has been made so lets move on, support the new manager and hope like feck he gets the support staff he so badly needs.

At the end of the day all we can ask of him is his best, that we will get.

I just hope the players give im a chance because they seem to hold all the cards which boggles my mind.

I am over this. Up Armagh.

Wrong again.

A poster on here predicted this at the start of September. I didn't believe him but turns out he had the inside track.

Mickey Mc Gurn as Fitness Trainer?

This has been rumoured alright, although it hardly tallies with other reports that the county is broke 

[Aaron Boone]

Armagh out to 50/1 to win Sam on the back of the appointment. That's prob the highest price since 1997.

[DuffleKing]

yup, even down are shorter odds
