Crossmaglen Rangers qualifed for the last four of the Armagh SFC in emphatic fashion this evening.
John McEntee's side, who are on course for a five-in-a-row of county titles, did not break a sweat as opponents Dromintee were beaten 1-8 to 0-00!
In a bizzare game at the Athletic Grounds, three of Dromintee's starting fifteen took to the field wearing jeans in protest of the tie not being moved to a later date. Dromintee were without a number of regulars due to a wedding.

1/3 Disappointing lack of common sense from @Armagh_GAA CCC to ignore @drominteegac representations for fixture accommodation this weekend
