Just saw mcgeeney interview, thought he was going to cry.
Some bit if yapping.

Plain and simple, Armagh are not good enough.
Mcgeeney isn't good enough.
Players don't have the strength of character to hold the nerve in a penalty shoot out. Couldn't even beat a derry team that lost their manager a few days before an Ulster final.

I don't buy this talk about them having better players than they show.
Forker is a top player, after that nobody you could rely on.
As for Rian, Armagh played better without him in their last game. He gets 1 point from play at the end of extra time yesterday, good point it was but you need more from a supposed star.
Yes McGeeney is some classless whinger and what an oaf to come on to the field of play and deliberately dunt into a Monaghan player, what age is he? 50 years old and acting the maggot hard man towards a twenty year old player?
I think a blind man can see that Armagh are a much better team than the way they are set up to play.

He was a p***k when he played especially when Brian Mcguigan left him lying on his ass more times than enough in CrokePark.yesterday in croke  Park.. he just made himself look the fool we all know he is.

Geezer is too emotional to be a good manager. This leads him to make poor decisions and this spreads to the players. Mind you questions should also be asked of the Psychologist; presumably he's not in performance related payment.
Cian  McConville would have made a difference yesterday.

When Rian kicked that score, that should have been that. The fact that it wasnt, shows that in truth we werent good enough.

Armagh seriously need to examine the length of time they allow the opposition to have uncontested ball.

Genuinely sorry for the abuse some Tyrone people and their kids suffered. Hope it doesn't put them off going back to games. Glad that our loss covers their teams abject failure also.
These so called Armagh fans are bandwagon jumpers, but it takes two to tango and other Ulster Counties have their thugs also. Disappointing to see the finger pointing on here instead of an analysis of the actual game. I've had things thrown at me in Healy Park and the Down fans goading Ryan O'Neill with regard to the situation in Cross is in the same ball park. As someone said when you hold these games in Croke Park you allow the opportunity for these moron's to behave like this. Hard luck to Armagh and Tyrone and hopefully either Derry or Monaghan can lift Sam for Ulster.

You must have been some player in your pomp! No player or manager goes out to lose or play badly. Everyone can have an off day. Managers make mistakes but they are putting in the time and effort.

All well and good running down McGeeney, but at the end of the day he can't put the ball over the bar for the players. There were chances in both halves of normal time that really should have been taken. Players have to shoulder some responsibility in that respect. If Armagh had have won, this conversation wouldn't be happening.

McGeeney is a genius. To get that bunch of, lets face it, ordinary footballers to compete at that level is some achievement. They're a mid table division 2 or top 2 division 3 side at best. Hats off to the man. He's worked tirelessly with players who are a lot less talented than himself and got some great performances out of them, even if they did ultimately lose.

Contrast that with Tyrone. AIs hanging out of the players and management back pockets like nothing normal and they were absolutely humiliated. Even the Kerry boys felt embarrassed for them after Saturday.

More deflection tactics from Tyrone after they were demolished by Kerry. Always more interested in looking over the fence at Armagh than looking at another poor season from their own team.

What it has shown again is that there is nothing between the Ulster counties. Derry, Monaghan, Armagh and Tyrone are all around a very similar level. Donegal were in that category before the start of this season but dropped off a bit this year. The margins are very fine in games between those sides but none of them are at the elite AI winning level.

When a team is finished it's finished. Tyrone will be back
It's funny that Armagh won their first  Sam before Tyrone but that Tyrone developed a culture of excellence and Armagh didn't.
