Not good news folks when we really need strength. I can't remember a time in the last ten years when we have had the luxury of a full squad of players to choose from. Reminds me that competition for places increases performances.

It all makes sense now. Who else is in division 3 next year? :oops:

You promised you wouldn’t tell anyone about that! :p

Oh all right then, I’ll wear it. But my flexibility ain’t what it used to be. I better not pull a hamstring. Me and Mrs M have tango lessons Sunday morning after early mass.
We are def missing Sheridan. Morgan is appealing. The injured players are Grimley forker shields and donaghy. No mention of Campbell. That’s from the sports round up on radio Ulster this morning

I doubt you can forget about the cheerleader's out fit & pom poms @PatMustard we may need you to bring your boots :eek:

It’s still 15 v 15 and we’re at home. Plus Fermanagh don’t score much, so a goal for us could be crucial.

And, if we play with the wind first half, it might change direction at half time. Anything is possible with this weather we’re getting!

Will do. I believe I’m still in good enough shape.

My hope for Saturday (other than a win of course) is that those supporters who are able to attend (3pm on a Saturday doesn't suit everyone) get vocal in their support of OUR team from the minute the referee blows the whistle. Let the Fermanagh boys know they have entered enemy territory & they will get nothing easy. Let the referee from diving midget land know that he is in front of a home crowd & remind him of this constantly as he makes each & every decision.

I don't like it, in fact I despise that it is so prevalent in our game but I think if it's the case that you get rewarded for going to ground at the slightest contact it's time our players were less honest about staying on their feet in front of goal when touched. If other teams are at it & let's be honest we can all see Ricey "drop the knees" McMenamin's influence all over this current Fermanagh team, then we need to fight fire with fire. We know how Fermanagh will set up, we know they will suck every last ounce of joy out of what should still be an exhilarating game to watch & turn it into a slow snoozefest, with scores a rare occurrence, they will be out to win frees & we can't fall into their trap. Let's give them nothing easy, if they're going to get frees make them work damned hard to get them & nothing in close.

I want our boys to win, our boys need to win but I also sure as hell don't want to witness Fermanagh getting promoted to Division 1 on our home turf.

I expect to hear @Diarmi & @Eireogatron leading the orange & white faithful & I think it's high time you got out that cheerleader's outfit & pom poms @PatMustard ;) I'm hoping @Calm1 is not "working" & has his orange tinted glasses sparkling so that the glare blinds Sean Quigley for every free (all 3 of them :)) he tries to take. I'm sure I can count on @cailín beag88 @niall1980 @Throwball & @Ogs lad to give a rallying call if there is a lull in proceedings. Even @DooReg might leave his darkened room for this one & no doubt @Willie Frazer will be there fleg in hand.

So there's really only 1 thing left to say.........

C'MON ARMAGH

If you want to join the vocal squad we are more than happy to accept new members @portadownarmaghfan the more the merrier & in this case louder :)

Oh yeah. Who'd have thought that?

Mind you playing with the ball in both halves might produce better results :rolleyes:

I been thinking all week about how we can win this game and if our defence can keep them low scoring and our forwards kick plenty of scores we'll be in with a chance of snatching the 2 points. UP ARMAGH

Listen folks, Armagh are going to blow Fermanagh away. We know them better than any other team they have played so far apart from Donegal who they caught on the hop. We owe them big time from that bullshit in Brewster Park last year. They have a few good players and the rest are robots. I do think all the work we have been doing on scoring goals will bear fruit and will be the difference. We will finish the league comfortably on 8 points.
