maghery beat the highmoss 3-12 2-13 last night maghery were flying 1st half taking some great flowing scores including 2 goals .started 2nd half much the same taking a 14 point lead then after a few changes they seem to stop and let high moss back into the game sarsfields scoreing 2-4 in the last 5 mins r so.

Sarsfields have gone backwards something shocking by these results. Though scoring 2-13 should be enough to win most games which indicates the problems lie in defence

Division 4 – St Patrick's II 0-7 Dorsey Emmets 1-10

A large crowd were in attendance at St Patrick's Park to witness this much anticipated local derby as the Dorsey Emmets senior side met a St Pat's team for the first time since the formation of the Emmets at the start of the last decade. Both sides showed signs of early nerves missing scorable opportunities but it was Dorsey who got the opening score of the match after a quick free kick. Shane O'Neill levelled matters 8 minutes in with a fine catch and well taken point. Conor Campbell took advantage of some lax Cullyhanna defending to put his side back in front but Cullyhanna forged into the lead with a long range Shane O'Neill point from play and a brilliant Rory O'Neill free from the right touchline. Two Dorsey points regained their advantage as the game ebbed and flowed, however in the last 10 minutes of the first half, St Pat's enjoyed their best spell of the match with points from Shane O'Neill and Brendan Murray, as well as a fine score from Tony Durnin putting Cullyhanna 2 points clear after 27 minutes. But disaster struck 2 minutes from halftime when some very naïve defending left Gary Mackin in space in the penalty area and when the ball was played in, the Dorsey man made no mistake in finding the net to put his side 1-4 to 0-6 ahead at the break.

Cullyhanna will certainly have been very disappointed to have trailed at half-time given that they had marginally the better of the first half exchanges but unfortunately a number of scorable wides and some slack defending meant that their territorial dominance was not translated into a half-time lead. While the game appeared to be wide open at half-time, the second half proved to be a severe disappointment to the Cullyhanna lads who were dominated by their parish neighbours in almost all facets of play. In a second half marred by the dismissal of a player from both sides for 2 yellow card infractions each, Dorsey reeled off 5 points in a row to secure victory as the St Pat's side ran out of steam. A late Brendan Nugent point was the only consolation for St Pat's as Dorsey ran out convincing victors. While the players will no doubt be disappointed at the result and second half performance, they should take heart from the manner in which they competed in the first period especially considering that they were facing a side who were challenging for promotion last year and have infinitely more experience of 4th Division football than the Cullyhanna team in their first season in the All County League.

[thewanderer]

torres not that big of a shock as madden are hard to beat at home especially with feeney playing and some of their injured players back im told. when s the big derby games for yous nab and harps that will tell u more on the promotion front.

[Triggerhappy]

just been looking at the "MyArmagh" document and i am impressed with the proposals for the new centre of excellence. Has anyone any idea where it is to be located?

[Onion Bag]

Armagh Centre of Excellence approx cost £3.7 million  30-35 acre site

Tyrone Centre of Excellence approx cost £6 miilion 40 acre site

are we doing this job on the cheap or is it going to be a shit hole in comparison to our neighbours

[charlie stubbs]

can anyone post the u21 fixtures for this week?cheers

[thewanderer]

onion always the doubting Thomas. do you think anyone spending 3.7 million will develop a shit hole as you state would be bonkers. Two factors you havent considered 1) land is cheaper now and or it may be on a long term lease from a public body. 2 development costs are much more competitive than a year ago. havin spoke to club tyrone people they estimate that if they wer starting again now you could knock 20-30% of the cost. So dry your eyes and contribute to the development instead of always being negative but still wanting the best but with no input.
ps Charlie just been given a fixtures book thks.

my armagh just launched on youtube

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xJuUTPPMY5c&playnext_from=TL&videos=njTxrFl6NZg&feature=sub

some good stuff on it, but is this just a football development thing?
no clips of hurling teams?
no clips of ladies football teams?
no camogie clips?
no club clips?
are these teams not as important to 'my armagh'...or is 'my armagh' just 'my armagh county footballers'?
