Fed up!

Fed up with such tactics - all players standing off, not putting a hand on the opposition, no tackles until they come inside our 45, kicking easy wides.

When we need changes, Geezer puts on 2 players who he hardly played at all in the league (Conaty and McConville).
When we need a goal - instead of a ball into the square, we go short and take a point!!!

Some players simply not up to county standard.

Fed up.
Fed up with McGeeney - he cannot win a game against any other 'top' team.

No other manager, who has won nothing, would have been tolerated for as long.

Changes needed after this campaign- McGeeney and his crew have to go.

Armaghs tactics to concede the kickout constantly is a baffling decision. Players look like they have had the confidence shook out of them, this team has gone hugely backwards this season. Everyone terrified to do anything inventive, so we get slow, poor, pedestrian football. There are definitely good footballers there, its the set up and the refusal to make changes from the line that pisses me off most
 
Imagine what the likes of ORourke, McGuinness etc could do this this armagh team.

One of ireland most expensive wage bill with 3 donkeys standing on sideline.

Been p1ss poor all year and beat 3x Div3 teams.

Pack those gym bags Geezeer.

All is not lost folks. Stood up well in second half and Tyrone won't want to see us again this year.
We can never fault the commitment of anyone involved with this team that gives us this great entertainment.
Lots to work on and we'll head into the playoffs under the radar and that works for us.

My guess before the game was that armagh would play too defensive and too passive and not make a proper go at it until the game is nearly lost . Armagh are one of the best teams about when we are 5 points down and have nothing to lose and the players just go at it. This is happening time and time again. You can't play rock and roll football for 75mins but too much of the play is too negative and passive. Infuriating.
 
Under the radar? We've been sh1t all year so get away with that.

Armagh gameplan so predicable, then add McQuillan and Conaty as subs.

McCurry give run around by Forker
Rafferty rubbish, again, with kickouts.

Do we not practice making space for a short?

WHY DO WE GIVE EVERY ****ING kickout to the opposition?

This is likely the last year for the likes of Grugan, Soupy, Murnin, Morgan, Forker and maybe more.

We need to find new young players to replace these great servants. We also need to find a midfield - Mackin is a very good half back but is not a high fielding midfielder. Crealey is quite simply not hood enough, nor is Sheridan.

Need a new management team with fresh ideas and better tactical know- how.
