Replying To Eddie the Exile: "Whisper it quietly but I think Derry might actually have a stronger first XV than Armagh. However, if Armagh do get ahead by 8 -10 points in the Ulster Final, which is more than possible, there's no way they will let that slip against a team like Monaghan. The key for Monaghan will be to stay with Armagh for 60 minutes and have something in reserve down the stretch. Matchups, matchups, matchups- huge work to do for GB and co in the next few days." If you go individually player for player combined 15 I agree Derry would match up pretty well with Armagh. But that doesn't account for how well Armagh are set up as a team, their depth and their winning experience. They may not have the ulster championships to show for it, but they were all Ireland champions in 24, and they've lost very few championship games in regular time in recent years. Derry are a fragile team, with a complete lack of leadership or accountability, no other team in the same Maguire gives up that lead. Never mind 11 points, if Armagh go 5 or 6 up against Monaghan there's no chance Cm1 (Monaghan) - Posts: 7 - 10/05/2026 18:01:01 2672041 Link

Think form will go out the window mon v armagh think monaghan can stay with armagh but oisin o Neill is doing serious damage when he comes on armagh are poor round the middle due to injuries etc but the tyrone match is the one monaghan need to focus on and o Neill was the one who bet tyrone for as good as armagh are down and fermanagh were cat so here's hoping Farneyblueandwhite (Monaghan) - Posts: 137 - 10/05/2026 21:35:32 2672145 Link
Replying To Monaghan_football: "Or just join a load of parishes together. Seems that your allowed to do that" Oh what parishes ? Last time I checked there is one parish, Tydavnet. Are you not aware Scotstown is a village as is Tydavnet and Ballinode? veterngaa (Monaghan) - Posts: 1038 - 11/05/2026 07:29:02 2672205 Link

Replying To veterngaa: "Clubs would wana get their house in order." At least Blayney fielded a team, unlike the a certain south Monaghan crowd afraid of having their seasons hopes ended in April MonaghanMan44life (Monaghan) - Posts: 212 - 11/05/2026 12:10:53 2672281 Link
