Armagh v Monaghan round 1 qualifier

Some game lads !!! This will be a clinker.

Maguire01 · June 21, 2009, 06:20:48 PM

Even when Armagh are drawn 'away' they get a home game!

Schkite · June 21, 2009, 06:22:29 PM

Yeah sure this is as much a home game for them. When we were drawn out first I thought at least a home draw, but getting Armagh negates that! Pick of the draw by a country mile.

Maguire01 · June 21, 2009, 06:25:46 PM

Well we've beaten them without Tommy once already this year. Same again?

The minors are due to play the same weekend so I presume this will be a double header in Clones?

Half the Monaghan "supporters" wont know who to support

Now that the Athletic grounds have been developed should the game not be played there?

Monaghan were drew out first so get home time.

Would make sense but you never know with the GAA. Probably have it the day before to get another gate.

Maguire01 · June 21, 2009, 06:39:20 PM

Would make sense.

What time is this game on at? 7pm?

Monaghan have home advantage, and the Athletic grounds might not be big enough, it was quite full even for the league game.

If a game is televised, I expect this one will be.

Would it be big enough, even if Armagh were first out?

Why so? We've played Armagh plenty of times over the last few years and had no difficulty in figuring it out.

I presume Monaghan will go in as favourites to this one?

What poor referee will be in charge of this? Hope he's prepared to have his name forever tarnished.

Thankfully Pat McEnaney cannot ref this one.
