[edit] POV

Armagh have become one of the dominant teams in Gaelic football over the last decade <- Debatable , last 10 years seems a bit much

However, Armagh were not always considered footballing superpowers < Superpowers also debatable

Their rivalry with their nearest neighbours Tyrone over the last few seasons has produced some of the best games of the Championship. < Or worst ,many of the game i've seen where terrible

Their dominance at the ALl-Ireland stage has copperfastened their membership of the "Big Three" of football, alongside Kerry and Tyrone. <= Dominance , 1 sam? (Gnevin 19:26, 23 February 2006 (UTC))

[edit] Armagh and Tyrone

Since 1999 Armagh have won 5 Ulster titles thereby confirming their position as the dominant team in Ulster along with Tyrone.

I think this line is pretty fair to both teams considering tyrone are current champions and have won it twice in the last 3 years (Gnevin 21:42, 9 May 2006 (UTC))

[edit] Retirement

Id suggest to someone with a good knowledge of Armagh of Ulster football to start two articles on Aidan O'Rourke and John Toal as they have announced their retirement with Armagh GAA, any takers?[1] Frainc 12:05 07 December 2006
