Armagh are aiming for their first All-Ireland win since Kernan guided them to glory in 2002.
Joe Kernan compared Armagh’s bench to Liverpool FC’s golden era and is convinced their own supersubs can claim them a second All-Ireland on Sunday.
Kernan said: “Everyone remembers the boy who used to play for Liverpool, David Fairclough. He was the original super sub. “That league win galvanised the younger core of our group. And I see Armagh's semi-final win over Kerry having a similar impact on them. Kernan, speaking at a Boylesports media event, said: “People’s perception might be different of this Armagh team in terms of winning and losing.“The team has had a bit of bad luck. You need luck no matter what you do but the fact is these lads keep coming back from these disastrous, heartbreaking days when they give everything and just fall short.
