Lidl National Football League Division 1 Armagh 1-13 Kerry 2-8 By Elaine Ingram ARMAGH desperately needed a win to move out of the Lidl National Football League Division 1 relegation zone and they managed to get it in a tight tussle against Kerry with a two-point victory. While there was no breeze in Silverbridge, Kerry […]
By Shaun Casey A running theme throughout Armagh’s Division One campaign has been their slow starts but they have showed real grit and determination to pull themselves back from impossible positions. In Croke Park against Dublin in round six, Armagh trailed by 11-points at one stage but battled back to win the game while last […]
By Shaun Casey ARMAGH have given themselves a real fighting chance of clinging onto their top tier status, but manager Kieran McGeeney expects their “toughest game” of the campaign when they host Kerry on Sunday afternoon. The Orchard County currently rest just above the relegation zone, with Dublin and Monaghan, the two teams they have […]
By Shaun Casey AS far as dead rubbers go, Armagh’s meeting with Fermanagh on Saturday means absolutely nothing to either side, outside of fulfilling the fixtures. Both teams have already suffered relegation and will compete in Division Four come 2027. Neither has picked up a single point from their five previous outings, suffering five consecutive […]

By Shaun Casey FOUR of Armagh’s last five visits to Croke Park have ended in victory for Kieran McGeeney’s men and former Armagh shot-stopper Philly McEvoy is delighted that the venue is now a “happy hunting ground” for his county. Before their historic All-Ireland run in 2024, the Orchard County struggled on Jones’ Road. But […]
By Shaun Casey WHOEVER leaves Croke Park on Saturday night with the two-points will take a massive step towards safety and that will be the objective for both Armagh and Dublin. They are two teams that have had great success from Division Two in recent years. Dublin captured Sam Maguire in 2023 from the second […]
By Shaun Casey THERE were so many turning points to Tyrone’s heroic 2025 season. Too many to count. Replays, wrongful red cards, last-minute winners, melees, match ups. The career-defining Armagh trilogy. The ten-game run to Sam. So many stories. But a meeting inside the dressing room after a league semi-final loss to Wexford jumps out […]
CONOR ‘Sketches’ Moore has a skit where he mocks me as a name-dropper. I don’t know where he got that from. On the evening of the 2024 All-Ireland final between Armagh and Galway, I chatted with the Taoiseach, then took a phone call from President Biden. That night, I had a drink with the music […]
