Penalty shootout decides Galway IFC final replay
Newtown also in 20002006 & 2011
Hmm Antrim Fermanagh and Down clubs have all won Ulster intermediate titles in recent years. Lisnaskea won the all Ireland final. I think Armagh football is just poor in general. The two teams who contested the final wouldn’t be the strongest two teams at that level in my opinion.So from 2000, 3 teams have made an intermediate final from armagh. 19 years. 38 final places up for grabs. 3 taken from a team from armagh. Not a great return. And realistically Down, Fermanagh, Antrim intermediate isn't a great standard. So there is a problem at that level.

What format should it be?It’s open to debate, personally I don’t like the current championship model.

Straight knock out. Proper championship football, double headers and big crowds. None of this group round robin crap!What format should it be?
I think the current format is a joke to be honest, I've nothing against back doors or group stages, but to have 3 teams going through from groups of 4 is ridiculous, should be a maximum of 2 from each group going through
Too many teams playing senior and intermediate without having won a championship. At the very least you should’ve won intermediate before you can play seniorWhen the proposal was put to the Club representatives at the County Convention, the rationale was clearly explained - it was to stop dead rubbers occurring and having meaningless Championship fixtures. The proposal was subsequently passed.
If we are going down the route of having groups, then I feel it is important to retain that.
A fair point, I think I'd be more in favour of a backdoor format then, if you take 6 games per group of four in group stages, thats 24 games to knock out 4 teams.When the proposal was put to the Club representatives at the County Convention, the rationale was clearly explained - it was to stop dead rubbers occurring and having meaningless Championship fixtures.
