5-00pm on Saturday 2nd August in Croke Park.

(Kildare v Monaghan at 7-00pm)

Garff Brooks to sing a few between games, as methinks it will the only way there will be 25k plus present.

Mayo Minors v Armagh as part of a treble header on Sunday, but seniors don't play Cork until 4pm. As they say, you cannot make this up. They must really dislike Armagh, that they could not put on two games same day. I am sure there will be some silly excuse.

Mayo are playing on the Sunday so they are doubling up for the furthest away County who are also ( unfortunately  ) Provincial champions.

I would say part of reason they are playing Mayo seniors at 4, is that if they played at 2 and decided to leave after their game, they might be shag all left in stadium.

Imagine the scene: Cian and Andy side-by-side on some open-back wagon lifting Markham and Sam in the Square and confused Rossies in Ballagh cheering. I wanted AIs to come home but this isn't how I imagined it.

For fcuk Syfín cop yourself on.
The only ones cheering will be silly you and the Ballagh traitors.
The real Rossies will be indifferent/angry/jealous or whatever as they go about their daily lives and ignore the Rhufest ( which won't happen at Senior level anyway).
Back to the subject of the thread -Armagh to win this one and set up a hammering by Dublin.

It is unclear to me if there could be a draw. If Armagh and Kildare win is there a draw for the QFs or not?
If either Meath or Monaghan win there cannot be a draw.

I'd expect Monaghan to win in any case and so ensure that Armagh play Donegal where a modest beating would not be too damaging to morale.

[meathie]

yes if Armagh and Kildare both win there will be a draw for the QF

[meathie]

Yay I can be on the hill for this game, its been bloddy ages since I got there last!

[Jinxy]

This game will need a strong ref.
I believe Armagh are very rough this year.

I'm not long back from Croke Park and tbh its very difficult to assess Meath on today's game because Dublin are just frightening the pace and power they play at. Its Dublin's to lose as they have the best team and players by far, so where does that leave Meath? Armagh certainly have nothing to fear as I'd put Meath on par with ourselves and maybe our momentum can carry us through a tight game.

I'd say bookies will have both teams at 1/1

Yer kidding, right? Armagh will be warm favourites.

I don't think there'll be much difference in price between them!!!

BTW I got a few nice snaps of your big yellow bus last night and you lot def have the best bus in Ireland

Correct.
Armagh 4/5 15/2 5/4 Meath.

That isn't 1/1.

Well Syphilis 1/1 and 4/5 is pretty close and the bookies are usually a good indicator to the levels the teams are at as they very rarely get it wrong...Meath will be hurting after yesterday's game and will def be looking to show their fans that they are better than that

I like Syferus, but had a good laugh at that.

Maybe 'warm' gave you the wrong impression but Armagh were always going to be favourites after the hammering Dublin dished out yesterday. I can see the odds drifting further over the next two weeks too.

I think the quarter finals are already set.

Dublin v Kildare/Monaghan
Donegal v Armagh/Meath

More like every year.

Odds are drifting already,  Armagh are cooling to 5/6 with Paddy P and 10/11 with Ladbrokes.
That's a pretty even forecast.

Belfast-Dublin return on the Enterprise for this still available at the £10 web fare. Translink won't be long pulling that when they realise there's a match on.
