Don't think anything official has been announced yet. Should not be long though as I hear players have been sounded out about joining squad.

Still waiting Throwball.Just after looking and our 1st fixture in the NHL 2b is away to Wicklow on the 28th January.AND still no manager in situ.6 weeks is hardly enough time to prepare a team for any inter-county fixture.I think back 3/4 years when we were no 2 in Ulster.How that crown has slipped.Don,t get me wrong. I have nothing but admiration for our hurling managers.We seem stagnated at this period in time.I really want us to do well hence my concern. Here,s hoping NOLLAIG SHONA.

Kelly of Meath is the new hurling manager. They have had a few challenge matches with some new players tried. Not sure how things are going though.

Good to see Armagh hurlers get their first league win for new manager today. Away too Derry. Hopefully a few will get to see them against Donegal next Sunday in Athletic Grounds
 
I'm sure the squad are happy to finally get a win under their belts - probably keeps them safe in that league for next year.
Although to be fair Derry have been having a mare of a year!

Donegal game this week will be interesting for them. In past years this would be one way traffic but Donegal are the most improved hurling county North of Dublin in the past few years at all levels along with Tyrone and most definitely be bouncing into Armagh this week following their win over Down.
