Former Armagh management team blast ‘fabricated stories’

THE former Armagh senior football management team hit back at their critics last night for “fabricated stories”, blaming a “breach of confidentiality” for their resignation.

“With the introduction of many new faces, the players have worked extremely hard and have almost to a man demonstrated loyalty and commitment to our cause,” the insisted last night.
