I offer a hearty comhghairdeas

to Armagh Ladies Gaelic footballers, who had a victory yesterday in Croke Park in the league final against who else but the kingdom. There are ways of winning finals, and winning finals against the kingdom is always the best way. I congratulate them on their victory; on their trailblazing over so many years; on their leadership; and on being role models. For Armagh to be the first team in the country that has its own GAA grounds for ladies Gaelic football is testament to the ambition and leadership shown by the county board and the players over a generation. Comhghairdeas

to the Armagh girls.
