The Orchard County claimed a comfortable 11-point win over Fermanagh in the quarter-final and are strong favorites to defeat Down in what is a repeat of last year's provincial semi-final
Amid all the debate about the value of the provincial Championships, the Anglo Celt Cup is still coveted by teams in Ulster, none more so than Armagh.Grugan himself had a kick to end their drought in last season’s Ulster final before Kieran McGeeney’s side lost out to Derry on penalties.
“I think that is the same for very county in Ulster. Whatever about the other provincial Championships around Ireland and the value that others place on them, you can still see what it means to people and what it means to Armagh people to try and win that. This weekend’s derby clash is a repeat of last season’s semi-final at the same venue. After Conor Laverty’s side enjoyed a first round win over Donegal in Newry, there was an anticipation that the game would be a close contest. It turned out to be anything but with Armagh scoring a facile 4-10 to 0-12 victory.
“I’d imagine Down, with another year down the line with Conor , they will be very well set up. They are a very athletic, pacey team with a lot of threats up front. “Yeah, there was more than a wee bit - we felt like we didn’t do ourselves justice in the game,” added the Ballymacnab clubman. “You can see the kind of quality we have there in terms of the depth there so we feel like we are in a good place moving forward.”
