Armagh IFC semi final results:

Naomh Pól Lurgan 1-11 v 0-10 Forkhill Peadar Ó'Doirnín
Grange St Colmcille's 1-14 v 0-12 Clann Éireann Lurgan

St Paul's v Grange final.

St Paul's will probably enter the final as warm favourites with the bookies having secured promotion back to Division 1 last week by winning the Division 2 league title.

That said Grange are a dangerous side with probably the best forward line in the division so it will be a tough one to call either way.

Down IFC Final - 12th Oct
Ballymartin v Warrenpoint

Warrenpoint will win this and also Ulster too.

Down IFC Final - 12th Oct
Ballymartin v Warrenpoint

Warrenpoint will win this and also Ulster too.

thanks for the support Brick, but there is along way to go just to win Down. Ciaran McCartan is suspended for the Ballymartin game. As for Ulster, neither Ballymartin nor Warrenpoint will find it easy, there are teams in Armagh and Tyrone that are effectively Senior Championship sides playing below themselves.

The Bearded One

Speaking from a Tyrone point of view, I expect Trillick to win the Intermediate title on Sunday and it will take a damn good team to beat them.
It is what it is. Presumably.

Whatever about Tyrone in Armagh the 2 teams in the final are far from Senior teams playing below themselves.  Grange have never won the senior Championship and haven't been in Division 1 in years, if ever.  The last won the Intermediate in 1993 and the Junior in 2010.  As for St Paul's they won the Intermediate in 1984 and the Juniors in the 70's.  They are the archetypal Intermediate team.  Neither team is within an asses roar of being a senior team playing below themselves!

Its not support.
But they will win Ulster.
They would tell ye as much themselves. Left it behind 2 years ago and apparently they aim to win it this time round.

CPN are strong but I would not be as cocky if I were in their shoes. Ballymartin will be hard to beat. If they do beat them the 2 Monaghan finalists are fine teams and knowing a bit about them all I reckon either of them would beat CPN. The Armagh finalists are good enough but I reckon would be a
Level below these teams. Not sure about the Tyrone teams but they always put up a good team. As for the other counties, Derry always provide a strong team in this grade so I would give them a fair shout too. Far too many variables before talking about Ulster wins!!!

Don't think the point will miss Mc Cartan that much, sure didn't they win the league without him while he was in the States. They are a very young team who maybe a bit short on experience for an Ulster campaign. Let's get the Down final out of the way first before debating if they can or cannot win Ulster.

Traditonally, the Tyrone and Monaghan champs tend to do well at Intermediate grade.  Think the Fermanagh champs will be much stronger too from next year onwards when more teams will participate in the Intermediate championship, dropping down from senior.

They could have won that Div2 in Down with their reserve team, lets be honest.
May be young but they have bundles of experience of big occasions. You play it down too much Elk.

I don't think the either of the potential Monaghan winners this year will trouble ulster at IFC level. They're not at the level of Truagh or Doohamlet who were serious teams at IFC level in the past few years.

I would assume if Trillick win Tyrone as expected they would be the favourites for Ulster at Intermediate level
Wanted.  Forwards to take frees.
Not fussy.  Any sort of ability will be considered
