Cullen is a bad referee all round.
Breach call was incorrect.
Ros 3rd goal was square ball.
Allowed ros keeper to waste serious time on kickouts.

Oh and the hooter is a load of balls too

FT Rossies 3-18 Armagh 0-24. Roscommon very good, Armagh dreadful and we still could have drawn at least. Niall Cullen as poor as Armagh.

Some game of two halves in the Hyde. Big two points secured for the Rossies in their battle to stay up. FT Roscommon 3-18 Armagh 0-24
Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose

The hooter has to go lads. Some amount of time wasting at the end of the roscommon game. Takes excitement and jeopardy away from it.

Allowed Rossies to lie on the ball. Any bit of contact a free.

Jaysus we don't do things the easy way, should beat Dublin though. Will struggle against Donegal next week.

2 breaches for Armagh, I really hope they're covered this evening as at least one is a load of balls apparently

Does the square ball rule still exist?  I can't remember the last time a square ball was given in any match. Thought it looked like a straight lift off the ground as well in the lead up.  We had 3 or 4 really good chances outside the disallowed one and couldn't take any. Conceding 2 or 3 a game means we need to be sticking a couple away ourselves or relying on a lot of two pointers. 
That's just, like your opinion man.

Sickner to get the goal chalked off for a breach.  Lovely build up and finish.

Roscommon deserved the two points. The disallowed goal 4 point swing in game I expect Armagh win game if it stands. Some of defending first half very poor there was a time Tk nearly jumped out of the road of a block and another time McCabe just stood off Cregg and allowed him tap the ball over. Worrying 6 goals against and none scored last two games. Turbitts form is a bit worrying was decent first day against an inexperienced Monaghan defence been poor last couple games. McQuillan is some threat under these rules. Good get Crealey and McMullan minutes would expect they will need play next week.

Plucky Cavan giving Tyrone their fill of it..

None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought.

That's Division 2 gasĂșn😉.

Still buzzing from the first half, still trying to recover from the 2nd.
Ould lads at half time struggling to find a better half of football by Ros in their long memories.

A lot done with 10 young lads playing their first Senior games but a lot to do.
Kickouts, Midfield, stopping lads running unchallenged through the middle,
Play the game and play it fairly
Play the game like Dermot Earley.

Wasn't a square ball having watched it back. Can't tell on the replay in regards the breach but apparently Armagh had just two players back and no excuse or blaming the ref for that poor play.

As McGeeney said the opening 25 minutes was like Armagh didn't leave the hotel and proved costly after a good fight back.

Tougher to stay up now after back to back defeats, need to bounce back with a win against Donegal next.

It wasn't. It was  picked up off the ground prior to  the goal though.

Hooter is b@llix

Roscommon excellent in the first half hour and fully deserved their win.  Nothing below should detract from that.

Armagh a shambles in the first 25 minutes and will need a massive improvement. Second half was poor enough by both teams.  Couple of key players need back as well.

Very poor decision making throughout.

The new rules (with the exception of the solo and go) are a bollocks when at matches. Very hard to know what's happening in large parts of the games. They also I feel diminish the quality of the matches and make the conditions a far bigger factor.

Whos bright idea was it for the change in the hooter rule. Nothing but shithousery to kill games now in the last 3 mins. Kicking a 2pt free not worth 2 either.
