Enda Mc Ginley was scathing about armagh in the paper today .
The proverbial storm is brewing in Tyrone so why wouldnt he deflect.
Tyrone losing at home
The issues with Healy Park
The fallout in their squad
Sean Cavanaghs forthcoming book

Who gives a fiddlers f#ck what a Tyrone person writes in his paid column in the Tyrone News.

Ben Crealy has shown signs of being an immense player for Armagh. He is young and has good skills for such a young man. He has qualities that you can't coach, such as size and speedand, in particular, moxie. Saturday night I watched Donnelly stand in front of him for a kick out and kick back his heel into Crealy's shins three or four times. About a minute later Crealy hammered him along the sideline and hit him hard again a few seconds later, drawing his yellow card. Perhaps he should have been more circumspect, but I liked his guts and determination. Like a good few of these youngsters, he's a keeper!

Sounds like McMenamin is having an influence.

What was the deal with Gallagher on Saturday? He was bounding along the line like a gorilla on Red Bull. Never seen him react like that before.

Ricey influence, or does he really not like Armagh/McGeeney?

Heard there was an altercation in Croke park after the league final between the two managers. Might explain Gallagher's over zealous celebrations and constant referral to how much he had learnt from the league final in post match interviews.

Is it just me, or does Ricey not look like George Best's doppelgänger?

Trying to look to the positives, if there is such a thing, is it possible that our players just froze? It looked that way. Youthfulness as opposed to leaderless? Charlie + donaghy are quiet chaps by all accounts - maybe we are just a year or two away from maturity. Speaking to a few within the camp the vibe I got was 100% behind geezer, that they let him down by freezing in the headlights. Thoughts ?

I agree that they let him down. Maybe they did freeze. I believe we are better than fermanagh but maybe they just executed a better game plan. More than likely it’s a mixture of the two

What’s the deal with county players playing for clubs at the moment? Clann Eireann player Maghery today. Forker wasn’t stripped out but Crealy cane on as an early sub and played most of the game
