If it works out like this then Tyrone will have to switch the Jamie Clarke marker. Clarke would destroy Swift...

I wouldn't be so sure about that at all - Swift did well in the Donegal game, that last-second (decisive) fumble apart, and he's becoming more comfortable in the full-back line at county level with each game.

It's all about opinions. I have mine, it doesn't mean its correct but well that's my opinion. Clarke impresses me very much as possibly the best forward right now in Ulster. Swift has never impressed me as a marker. Good all round footballer maybe but not a marker. So I can't see him containing Clarke. By the way in the game where 18 year old Swift marked "Wee Peter", just how good did his team play at getting the ball to Peter that day? Or how many did Peter set up?

One good day in a club match does not make you a county player

Do Armagh play their 3 man FF line these days or do they try to take a man out and leave more space for JC.

If McKeever doesn't play I think it could really be a big loss to Armagh. He holds that defence together very well and even though I can't stand the site of the man every since the Ulster final 2005, I have to say he's become a vital player for Donegal. Not quite McGeeney status just yet.

I think it will suit Tyrone if Stevie McD comes out the field.
I hope just because its a 7pm throw in that there won't be loads of drunken Armagh & Tyrone hoodlums out to stir up trouble before hand. I know we still have our fair share of them.

Mr. Nakata

Does red sean's selection signal the end for Davy? I doubt it, but it would appear he has now dropped down the pecking order in Harte's thinking for what remains of the 2011 championship.

Redhand Santa

Can't wait for the game. Most admit I'm looking forward to it more than probably any of the Ulster Championship games in recent years. There's something special about a knockout winner takes all derby, especially with the relative recent history between the 2 counties. The nerves of knowing this could be your counties last championship game for ten months and the thought of watching your neighbours celebrate after the game adds to the buildup. A close to full Omagh on a Saturday night should also lead to a good atmosphere.

I've no doubt Tyrone can win this game. Just hope they perform on the night. Would have loved to have had a fit Justy and Cassidy available but there are still decent options. Happy with the defence and have no problems with Swift or O'Neill starting. Some concerns over the forward line. Coney has been talked about for a few years and this is his time to stand up and prove he's the man at this level. I don't think tomorrows forward line is good enough to win the All Ireland but a few changes if we get through could make it a lot stronger.

Would be happier if our midfield/forward line looked like this:
Cassidy
Hughes
C Cavanagh
B McGuigan
Justy
Harte
Cavanagh
Mugsy/O'Neill

But would be great to see Donnelly and Coney proving themselves as real options and give Harte plenty of headaches going forward.

Fuzzman

I have a feeling Mickey will be keeping his McMahon brothers in the heart of the defence for the years to come.

I'm heading up to Letterkenny this evening so wont be on the board from this evening.
I hope its a nice evening for football and there isn't any nasty stuff or controversy.

I think Tyrone will have too much for Armagh this time round, especially if they don't have McKeever playing. If we can keep young Clarke and SmcD quiet then we should get another Sat out.

ziggysego

I'm happy with this selection. Mickey's giving the younger players a chance to come through and get them blooded. I believed before we could beat Armagh and with this team, imagine the confidence it will give them going into the Quarter-Finals, if they beat Roscommon.

Mr. Nakata

I had an uneasy feeling in my gut before the donegal game and I feel similarly anxious going into battle against the mhaca. They have momentum and will relish getting stuck into us. I just hope we get over the line tomorrow night regardless of the display. I would prefer to see Cassidy, Justy and Penfold all starting but players need to be 100% and that mustn't be the case. Roll on tomorrow night and copious amounts of creamy stout post match....

maggie

Know what u mean Mr N, I'm worried about the orange men as well. Really hope tyrone come through it but think it will be a lot tougher than some people are suggesting. Such a shame for Cassidy, really thought this would be his year to shine.

What's the ticket situation for this game? Is it sold out?
Thinking of heading to Omagh after all. Could you pick a few up on the night.

Ticket vans selling tickets for terrace outside the ground-definitely not sold out-you won't have any bother getting a ticket

Does anyone know if this is a scam or real?

Apparently the game will be streamed online, here:

http://www.footbo.com/Blogs/73063-watch_Tyrone_vs_Armagh_live_online_streaming

The GAA passed a motion last week which banned the streaming of games while other games were on, so I'd doubt it'll be streamed.

There are no other games on at that time, derry v Kildare on at 4 and down v cork on @ 6

So Down/ Cork will be on while the Tyrone game's on then.

Looking forward to this game more than any other in a long time. Decent weather, a derby, knock out football, full house! Lovely.

I wouldn't trust it. You would have heard about it if any other party had secured the rights to broadcast games online. There's always bogus blog pages advertising games, that link to nowhere.

Strangely calm about this game compared to previous meetings. If we lose, we lose - not good enough to defeat Armagh at home means you're not really All-Ireland challengers.

I still maintain this game will mean more to Armagh fans (to win). They've a burning desire to defeat (and end many of the careers of) this Tyrone outfit.
I wanna have my kicks before the whole shithouse goes up in flames.
