All Ireland Qualifiers

[Armamike]

I get where you're coming from with your post but there are only 2 rounds of qualifiers, this one & then if you win another round when you play 1 of 4 Provincial losers, there can be no "stumbling through a few rounds of the qualifiers" this year.

Yes that's very true and I know it's very different to previous years but what I meant to say is that we've got to front up a bit and not wish for any kind of 'easier' draw. If we go out in the first round so be it. The Donegal match has left further question marks over our ability to put in a championship level performance. It's a great chance now for the team to answer some of those questions and show they can produce when it matters.

Ironically outside of Derry/Donegal could round 2 be easier "on paper" than this round?

Two teams looking for redemption. its time to decide if we talk the talk or walk the walk . No distractions with referees suspensions or any other nonsense. No excuses . All we can do is get into the ground and support the team because that other crew will come like a swarm of locusts , devouring all before them . Its time to win a meaningful match and for the team to show a bit of backbone . Lets F***ing Go!.

Armagh won't be given up home field advantage

 

[ardchieftain]

Knew we'd get them. I honestly think it will come down to who wants it more. Let's see what the true character of this team is. Can't wait..

I'd say it will be a double header in croke park with maybe mayo v monaghan

Where does it say that?

I agree - why would we give up home advantage?
A great draw - as others have said, it is now the time for the team and the management to stand up and get a big championship win.

Anything else and I am afraid the usual questions will be asked - and rightly so.

Should be some atmosphere.

Definitely at home. I actually think this is the game we need if we're going to kick on again. Players and fans will be up for it like nothing else! Good to get the excitement building after the long flat break.

Wouldn't put it past the gaa trying to get more money as they know they will be able to fill croker with 2 of the games rather than fill 2 county grounds

genuinely don`t think this will have as many people at it as the first game of the season.
9/10,000 will be the crowd at best

Totally disagree, lose & you're out, can't see anything other than a full house for this one.

League game had AG close to capacity at the start of the year. More at stake this time obviously with it being championship.

No doubt there’ll be a mad scramble for tickets
