I actually felt uncomfortable sitting in the crowd on Saturday evening as the frustrations have spilt over into every wee thing that now happens. We had people shouting at players to shoot from 50 yards out in the first half, In my head I was going some of these people haven't a scooby doo. We all know how hard it is to shoot into that top net without a strong wind. But these wee things are just a further spill over of the all round frustrations and I honestly hate to see Armagh fans shouting at Armagh players.

Tbf I think it was a combination of things which resulted in crowd frustrations
the poor play which we saw throughout the first half .
The defensive nature of the setup and continuous lateral passing
Remember it took over 20 minutes to get a point in the board
I actually thought it was as poor a first half performance as I have seen in years from Armagh .

I agree with this. On another note, I cant ever remember seeing a 45 kicked backwards before; then Saturday happened

I dont think it was a 45 Grugan got a free was frustrating that he didn't bring oisin off the bench a bit quicker when it was obvious how bad we struggled with frees and how louth have decided thats what they were going to do foul us out the pitch.....

In first half Grugan passed one back, dropped another short, turbitt dropped one short and then when Blaine was at the back of his run up for a 45 someone else ran in and played a pass before he shot it. All either on or inside the 45. Thought Blaine should’ve been brought up to hit all of those off the ground, to kill time against the wind if nothing else. Couldnt have done worse than 0/4.

The one he did kick in the first half just about held up in the wind. If he had come for all them frees and missed them he’d have been getting some abuse on here. Although he should have kicked the one in the second half that McPartland hardly got off the ground.

Exactly the same team as last week. Trying to be positive here and see it as McGeeney wanting the team to get another chance to perform and make up for last week. The other part of me says, how and why are we playing two defenders at wing forward, at home to Meath? Why? Best of luck on Saturday evening to the team.
