Football action was reasonable at the weekend , mayo had trouble with Louth in McHale park , Mickey harte has turned Louth into mini Tyrone with a wall of red shirts in front of the scoring zone , it's impossible to play through them and Kevin mcStay will be very disappointed with this display , with the only bright spot Aidan O'shea swinging over 3 nice frees from the right with his left foot.....I didn't know Aidan could take frees
In Ulster
Tyrone defeated Armagh in Omagh by one point in a game where Armagh didn't start playing to the 60th minute ....Rian O'Neill was straight reded in the first half for Derek Chauvin impersonation ....Armagh will be thumped by Galway next weekend
Monaghan ran out five points winners over Clare in Clones in a well contested open game where Clare put in a massive performance ....Jack mcCarron scored 9 points and the game was only settled by a Conor McCarthy goal in injury time
Roscommon were comfortable winners over Sligo in the Hyde and will be a very dangerous opponent in the knockout round and should beat kildare next weekend to at worst come second in the group and stay at home in the preliminary quarter finals
