Lest we forget

[T Fearon]

On the tenth anniversary,remember with pride.

Sept 22nd,2002. All Ireland Final,Armagh 1-12 Kerry 0-14.

At the going down of the sun,and in the morning,we will remember them.

With 2011 the tensest finish to an All-Ireland final I've ever experienced, and I'm not from Armagh, and I wasn't even at it. The greatest, most spine-tingling scenes I've ever seen after a final, and I only watched it in Quinn's.   

I suppose the general consensus now among GAA authorities would be that the pitch invasion took away from the occasion. 

[Shamrock Shore]

Was it not Sep 15 Tony?

[Hoof Hearted]

Was it not Sep 15 Tony?

lol, very good. No-one here is going to forget that ! (It might need explained to newer posters, but sure thats alright )

[Bud Wiser]

Was that the year I drove up to Armagh with tickets after we had a big row on the DB that went on for weeks.  Simple times back then although not that long ago.

What a day! I'll never forget that feeling at the final whistle when I realised we were AI champions. Hard to believe its 10 years ago.

[Armaghtothebone]

The great day.
Is it really 10 years ago?

Time certainly does fly by, apart from the birth of my son, this was the greatest moment of my life. Standing on the Hill, ranting and roaring like a lunatic, jumping higher than i ever jumped when i was playing, at the final whistle. If only you could bottle that emotion.

Strangely, in relation to the pitch invasion debate, our win didn't seem real until i set foot upon the hallowed turf...........

I hope i'm alive to see Sam being brought back to the Orchard....................

The ten year anniversary of the birth of gaelic football.
How the time flies.

To think that Thornton could have nipped this all in the bud.

They went with songs to the battle,
they were young.

Straight of limb, true of eyes, steady and aglow.

They were staunch to the end against odds uncounted,

They fell with their faces to the foe.

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.

At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
We will remember them.

they were shot in the back by the Taliban and they didn't have the right night vision equipment

That Brit military stuff really sickens me.
Especially when you see how ex soldiers are treated. Any homeless shelter in London is full of them.
The poppies are a joke. 

But well done Ormaugh.

[5 Sams]

A fluke result against one of the best teams ever to play the game.

[rrhf]

I agree Canavan should have taken his own score

[Lecale2]

Long time ago now.
