Rian O'Neill was not part of Armagh's sqaud as they lost to Galway
Rian O'Neill is ‘taking a bit of time’ away from the Armagh panel according to manager Kieran McGeeney in a huge blow to their prospects of League and Championship success in 2025.
“He is taking a bit of time out for himself at the minute,” McGeeney said. “I don't know whether it is weeks or months. We said we'd give it to him. Players, managers and officials are still getting used to the new rules in place for 2025 and McGeeney admitted they sought clarification before Saturday night’s fixture on where a free-kick for breaking the three up rule could be taken from.
“So it was a free kick from the centre-point of the defending 20m line, the one the referees got was red after it, saying that they were allowed to take it out . “Obviously the two-pointers were a huge thing. I think we both got caught for having two up top for the handy frees in. That was it.
