I took in both of yesterdays quarter finals. Two very contrasting games with both losing teams feeling sick today, a prime opportunity for both to make a semi final.Clan na Gael were very good yesterday. We managed to put the brakes on Stefan Campbell but Shane McPartland put on an exhibition. Surely he is one for McGeeney to be looking at? Some scores right out of the top drawer. Not sure what age he is but that was the best individual display so far this year in the Armagh club championships.
Glad to get out of it with a win, serious drama at the end and we showed a gritty side to dig it out against spirited oppositon and a referee (Phil Conway) who wasn't exactly on our side either.

Killeavy this Killeavy that all i know for sure is i have never came across a bigger bunch of mouth pieces in my life than the killeavy fan base and secondly maghery will win the champonship not a shadow of doubt in my mind about that. Killeavy granemore championship semi final is actually laughable, granemore would not win the intermediate championship.Killeavy/Maghery final.

The first game was a joy to watch and Clans should have won it in normal time and again in extra time. Killeavy were far more economical with their shooting, Clans lacked composure at a number of key times when the game was there for the taking. I don’t think the ref favoured either side, he did let a lot go and you could argue one Killeavy player in particular got away with persistent fouling throughout the game.
I went into the second game expecting a formality more than anything, that did eventually materialise but only with the teams back 15v15 in ET. Dromintee performed commendably in defence but I dread to think what would have happened if Cross hadn’t been reduced to 14 early on. In hindsight Dromintee could have maybe threw the shackles off a bit going forward but it’s all academic now.
Thought the ref was hard on Cross at times and it’s not often that happens. That match will stand to Cross, despite your propoganda. Down to 14 for most of the match, losing your best defender but still hanging in and seeing the game out comfortably in ET. The semi v Maghery is a 50/50, they were lucky enough to get over the line v Ballymacnab. Whoever wins that tie will go on and win it IMO.A win is a win but it was not nice to watch. Dromintee showed no ambition whatsoever to try to win it when they had the extra man and we were very sloppy in normal time with our shooting and decision making. Some questionable stuff from the ref and we definitely should have had a penalty which would have finished the game off.
From our perspective that will not do it against Maghery and they have to be favourites for the semi. Need to really pick up on the performance and play like we did in extra time through out the game. Anyway, another semi, another chance. A lot of young lads on the team so building for the future as opposed to the here and now.

Don't know what they are smoking down round Killeavy Raging bull. Hateful shower of c****Haha

Killeavy granemore championship semi final is actually laughable, granemore would not win the intermediate championship.
I stand to be corrected but i think from 2016 onwards they have made the quarter finals only once maybe max two times, which isn't exactly great. They are a terrible footballing team. They would not win the intermediate either they are a poor poor team so don't try big them up either, routine win for killeavy coming up and then defeat for killeavy in the final.A new member joining to give out while a championship defeat is still fresh, never a good idea. Granemore have regularly been at the latter end of the championship in recent years. They're never beaten by much and they never seem to get relegated from 1A either. So to answer your final statement, they'd win the intermediate standing on their heads, because they are a cut about everything from 1B downwards.
Nab beat them after extra time in the semi in 2019 and they were in a quarterfinal last year. They also easily beat a Mullaghbawn team who disposed of the county champions and were fancied to turn them over.I stand to be corrected but i think from 2016 onwards they have made the quarter finals only once maybe max two times, which isn't exactly great.

Absolutely nothing lol If granemore win i will swallow my words and put my hands up to say i got it wrong. Whoever wins the other semi (in my opinion it is a formality) wins the championship. Maghery Killeavy final and a routine win for Maghery.What have Harps men got against Granemore @Jimbo85

Lol have a bit of faith in your team and quit crying it out ye eejit.Not sure that maghery do routine wins against anyone. They tend to grind out tight games and arent big scorers. Cross (and if they beat Cross which i personally doubt, then us or Granemore) wont be worrried about getting a hiding off them. Also when three of the 4 quarter finals go to extra time you can see that nothing is a formality in armagh.
