it will be important to understand why and who chose this venue, the motivation of any, will be critical to analyse. If it were an attempt to create an illusion of hype to deflect the attention of fans and ultimately players, then we have to consider our responses as supporters.
Think you could be reading into it a bit much
Simple explanation would be that BBC wanted to televise an evening game and Clones has no floodlights

Could be, respect that
A game such as this would get a good audience for the BBC to start their coverage.
It is a swings and roundabouts, many Armagh people will not be able to attend, others will benefit from the live coverage.

I can understand Monaghan playing the likes of Kerry in Inniskeen or Blayney as Kerry wouldn’t bring the numbers we will.

Had it been in Clones, I’m sure it would have nearly sold out too. It’s madness bringing it to Blayney.
Come on now Pat, Clones wouldn't be sold out if it was first round of the championship in the height of summer, let alone a R1 league game in late Jan lol

Anyone get any more information on tickets for the game? Weather will seriously impact the attendance as although there are 4,000 seats only 2,000 of those are covered with the remaining being of the concrete (break your hole and freeze the arse of ye) variety. I think I will get my breakfast in Waters' shop and head over around 11 am to be sure of a good seat!!
