Steven McDonnell retires from Armagh
April 12, 2012
Armagh's Steven McDonnell
The 2002 Sam Maguire winner broke the news tonight on twitter.
"After 13 years of playing football with Armagh at county level I have decided that the time is right for me to retire at this level and move on," said McDonnell.
"I want to thank all the managers and players that I played alongside and made some great friendships along the way. I also want to thank all the supporters from Armagh that supported throughout and the supporters from all over Ireland that respected what Armagh done in this time."
The Killeavy player was one of the top corner forwards in Gaelic football for over a decade, winning seven Ulster SFC titles and a league medal in 2005.
A three time All Star, McDonnell had not lined out with Armagh during his year's league campaign and there was uncertainty over whether he would return to the Armagh jersey. Tweet
