Sunday 2nd June Fixtures clash with Armagh v Cavan.

Refixtures scheduled for Saturday 1st June at 7pm. Not great if people have already made plans for that Saturday/play soccer/support Liverpool or Spurs.

How long are teams expected to wait for a referee to turn up?

Last night Alan Taylor was down to referee the Belleek v Thomas Davis game which was due to start at 8pm and both teams were on the pitch ready to go. No ref arrived and someone got in contact with Paudie Hughes who came and done the game, the game didn't throw in until 9pm. Seems to be a regular occurrence with referees not turning up/turning up late this year. It's a bit of a joke, I don't think it would happen in the senior league.

The game should have been called off if they had to wait that long. The level of referees they send to do junior games is a joke itself. Half of them don't know most of the rules. Ruins games and turns people off football.

do they not alternate the refs between the leagues? Div 1 first week, then div 2/3/4 etc? Brave wait till 9pm!!

not been on in a few days but Clady lost the points against Belleek. They just put up the score that stood after 40 mins before the row broke out. Clady also had the sub who got struck in the face by the belleek linesman (that started the row) handed with a 48 week suspension and the club got a fine. does anyone know if Belleek got any suspensions or fines? takes two to tango.

dust ourselves off though and look forward to taking 2 points off the arrogant derrynoose tonight

Complete mis representation of what happened, first of all game was in injury time so you may get a new watch, secondly the county board headed by cladyman mickey savage got the call completely right as your sub ran off his bench up the sideline and repeatedly struck the linesman. 48 weeks isn’t long enough for that thug, not that he gets game time anyway.

When we opened the forum we also set up a Facebook page. We haven't put a thing on there in quite a while, but would like to get it active. For those of you on Facebook, if you haven't already liked the page please do so - https://www.facebook.com/orchardfans/
and remember it is free. Ask all your Armagh supporting family and friends to do the same. It would be cool if we could get it active for those that don't know about us here and want to be able to discuss all things Armagh GAA without hindrance from the officialdom!

Thanks again everyone.
