QuoteYou'd better hope UTB that you continue to not win the TSFC for the next few years.

I know the standard of Armagh club football is dire but have Cross now been given a bye into Ulster 'for the next few years'?

The last team to beat Cross was from Armagh, teams from a few other places have failed to do so since.
If at first you don't succeed, then goto Plan B

Love how people automatically assume Armagh football is poor? they make wee boys out of every other team in ireland as well when they want to. They've been beat once in Ulster in 6 years and it was by an Armagh team. So why does no-one say that the standard of Ulster football is dire? Coz i was at every Cross game so far this year and I'd say their toughest test was against ourselves in Armagh, coz they walked through Ulster in 2nd gear!!

Give and Go

A poor week for the GAA thanks to the scandalous whinging and moaning from Kerry Clubs. They've had it too easy for too long thanks to a provincial system that has protested them and given them an easy ride to All Ireland Finals.
Shame on them for the headlines they caused all week and are still causing in today's papers. A black day for the GAA.

Crokes though take the biscuit. How come they didn't put forward a motion on this to Convention since their concerns about safety arose a few years ago? How come they release statements on the issue to the media instead of raising the issue directly with Croke Park? Now backtracking at a rate of knots.

Sickening carry on. A slur against great GAA people in other clubs and counties. On a par with our Taoiseach's comments in Davos this week.

Always followed Kerry football. Used to always.

The standard in Ulster is quite poor alright.

Getting a bit worried now. After them Tyrone boys beat the poor Kerry boys last week and Crokes running scared of Cross what will I do on Feb 11th. Armagh are due to play Kerry away. Will they let us in? Will there be an away end? Will Croke Park inform us via our season ticket email? Will we away supporters have an escort to an from the county border? It could get dicey for some of us Armagh supporters. Afterall the hard men from Cross will be saving their money for the club championship only leaving a small amount of us nordie thugs to make the journey. Maybe I and my young fella should just stay at home and watch it on Setanta. They could show it on Setanta Ireland for the Kerry boys and Setanta 1 for us. God I remember the good old days when you just went to the match for a bit of craic and banter with all other supporters. Not much point renewing the season ticket next year! Sad the way things change as you get older.

Its a lot better than meath. Club football in meath is dire. There are intermediate teams in ulster every bit as good as 50% of the senior teams in meath.

I assume you've not watched Armagh in the USFC for a while then?

Never mind Cross or Armagh hooligans. Wait until they meet the Cavan headhunters or the Derry Inter shitty firm.
Nostalgia isn't what it used to be.

So if club football outside of Cross is as strong as you say how come your county team is pure dung?
