Considering this was Ballymacnab's first ever senior league title, I'd imagine they gave a mighty big shit about it.

And who's to say they can't win the championship too?

Not all of us are lucky enough to be in the position to play in the senior championship, yet despite that are proud of each of our boys who pull on our club jerseys and are more than happy to go watch them play in the junior championship.
So unless your post was a poor attempt to start some aggro, i suggest you focus your attentions on the senior championship thread and leave the junior one to those of us who actually care about it.

i would imagine the championship is more important to the nab as well. Whether they win it or not is a different question. Either way junior football is poor

Says someone from what always was effectively a junior club. Be very careful what you say as the nab are in their glory years but the fall back to junior can happen very, very quickly. Have a look at your underage teams and you'll see your future there.

What games did you attend to make such a statement? Then if anyone here attended games that are mentioned then they can give their opinion

Having watched matches from all levels of football in the county over the last few years I have seen many exciting and pride filled matches in the junior championship. Many better to watch than senior games. There are also a number of players who could easily play senior football but due to birth or family connections proudly represent their club in junior. It is why I would love to see Armagh try something like the Kerry model so that junior players can test themselves at senior.

To be fair folks, the level of excitement at an All Ireland Club Final in Croke Park at all levels including Junior is equal to any you'll see. If the games were that poor Croke Park would drop them as an idea and a competition - yes I've been to quite a few at all three levels. Before anyone says it, it certainly ain't about the money with HQ on the Junior or Intermediate as they tend to be club supporters mostly and a few neutrals.

There is a difference between all Ireland level junior and Armagh junior but sure here we will leave it at that. Up the nab
