Armagh Club football & hurling

[Armaghgeddon]

Bollocks! One punch broke a lads jaw, cheekbone, dislodged his lower jaw, smashed out all his lower teeth and tore his entire gum such that he cant eat solid foods for 4 months!! Wise up man!! Of course it wasnt a single blow...

1 punch can cause that damage.

Just on the above quote... If someone isn't expecting the punch it can cause severe damage. The body is more relaxed etc and not ready for such impact. If he was ready for the punch or knew it was coming he would been more able to take it.

I've had a few clippings in my time (as a few on here can confirm  ) but always knew the punch etc was coming. On one occasion a few years ago while playing ball I was struck from behind and it broke my jaw... The point im trying to make is that I wasn't ready for it, yet still managed to break my Jaw while much harder punches i've received didn't do as much damage as I knew they were coming...

All in all there is no doubt that 1 solid connection may well have caused such sickening injuries and unless you were there and witnessed it there is no point speculating!!

Best wishes and a speedy recovery to the young lad....

Just saw the report on UTV - Shocking!!

And to the lads above I know one punch can cause a severe amount of damage but think about it for a second - his cheekbone, chin and both parts of his jaw as well as all lower teeth displaced. How could you possibly aim one single punch to do all that???

If a single blow can kill someone, a single blow can cause this amount of damage. If the culprit took swinging punch and connected through the middle knuckle on the lower point of the cheek, it can fracture it. The bottom of the fist would cause the damage to the teeth, gum, jaw and chin. Even an uppercut the the jaw could cause such damage through impact. Not to forget when hitting the ground he could have suffered one or two injuries.



Also, best wishes to Kevin Nugent.

Any official word from Culloville?

The tr**p swingin the fists shouldn't be allowed across the line for many a long year. Quite right to get the polis involved too. This was no retaliatory dig.

A couple of days ago I suggested a certain lad might have been involved. He wasn't and I apologise for the 3rd time for naming him in the wrong. However the folk in Culloville still seem to be more intent on trying to find out Dougal Maguire's identity rather than reveal the identity of the culprit.

I wish to point out, therefore, that those of you think you know who Dougal is, think again.
It's now 5.40, I've just driven past Camlough Lake and I saw the guy who some of you are assuming is Dougal, swimming in the lake. He can't be 2 places at once. I admit I'm a personal friend of the person in question, but I'm not him and there are at least 3 people on the Board who can confirm this, Shamrock Short, Fear ar Strath Ban and The Mighty Quinn as they know my true identity. I can also reveal that he's mortified with me for posting the name of a person who wasn't involved and I apologise to him for that

You'd think people in Culloville would have more to think about 

[wats that 4 ref]

just 2 clear up about was it a punch r wat yes it was the lad was standing facing up the field and the cullaville no 19 only on a few mins as a sub had run across and struck him side on. the jaw broke at place of impact,broke at his other side around the ear area because of the force of the punch, and part of his chin bone broke at went through his gum makin the teeth to dislodge. yes 1 punch did this

I think it's been a sad week for Armagh over the incident at the weekend. What's even more sad is that Culloville people are spending more time trying to find out who Dougal Maguire is  They should get their own house in order first

Back to football matters though and Pearse Og beat Carrickcruppin tonight on a score line of 2-15 to 1-9. Wasn't at the match so can't comment on it as I was at the B game which the Ogs won as well against An Port Mor

[illdecide]

Clans B team beat St Peters tonight in a very high scoring game (this is a guess at the score line Clans 4-12 St Peters 3-08).

On the Culloville issue...why are they trying to find out who Dougal Maguire is? what are they going to do if/when they find out...break his jaw too. The best thing they should be doing is handing the guilty lad over to the County Board and whatever other people who may need to speak to him.

Dougal i dunno about you but i wouldn't be getting to worried about it, you named a guy (so what) and almost straight away apologised for it (3 times now) tell them to f**k off. Well that what I'd be telling them

[TacadoirArdMhacha]

If somebody had accused you or one of your close friends or family of smashing a young fella's face to bits, would you not want to know who they were?

That said, Dougal has apologised and withdrawn the comments so that should be an end to it. The incident only highlights the dangers of websites such as this though.

And again, its worth emphasising that whatever the rights and wrongs of anything discussed on here, the most important issue is the wellbeing of Kevin Nugent.

Of course. What's your point?

with all the eyes of the gaaboard on this thread plus quite a few lurkers trying to scavange information, Dougal should have kept his mouth closed until he got the confirmation on the name. Although he withdrew it almost immediately it was naive and wreckless to name the person you did without clarification or confirmation. Surely it cant be too hard to find out who the number 19 was, not that I think he should be named on here. If it was not from behind I would not condemn, but it was and its a dirty act.

ogs defeated cruppin last nite 2/15 to 1/9 in cruppin. this was a good display by the ogs after trailing to an early goal. good to see g barton and mc coy return from long term injuries. the managers decision to try new players has helped the team improve greatly and is given more competition for the championship a head. still 7/8 of the county final team missing last nite including mallon, p duffy, davidson, a duffy, mc manus, r clarke, j j clarke,  dougan, mc ginley. a good result considering this, interesting to see ferris playing for cruppin he must have left the armagh panel? in relation to the nugent incident, i see cullaville have stated that the incident occurred during a melee involving various players, is this correct or are they running for cover? hope young kevin gets well soon, a good lad and so is his father brian a true gael.

[crossfire]

Best wishes to Kevin.
I hope he makes a speedy recovery.

My point is that the issue of the identity of the culprit must surely be more important than trying to discover the identity of someone who named a person in the wrong and then apologised several times for doing so.

Dougal i think you might be safer keeping stum. There seems to be fear in your recent posts. Say nothing more on the subject and hopefully for you own sake the limelight shifts from yourself back onto the cowardly act that took place on the field.
