He owes them nothing, always played with heart and the goal v tipp was one of my favourite moments following galway. Another great hope leaves with no all ireland, him, cloonan, farragher, broderick, they were probably the best players in the country in their day when minors, sickening, especially as its hard to see joe canning win one with whats around him now.
Gotta love your positivity.

Just as well we didn’t let your minors and U21 into Leinster so. You’d never get a fuckin thing finished.

South Galway 
Seán Armstrong announced his retirement from the County team this morning. He burst on to the scene in 2005 as part of the new Terrible Twins, along with Michael Meehan. I think they both scored a hat-trick apiece in that All Ireland U-21 Final victory over Down. He was brought into the Senior team later that year and showed great promise in the All Ireland quarter final v Cork. He won an All Ireland club title with Salthill the following year against St. Galls of Antrim.
He had a devastating burst of speed, but this speed, and his career in general, were seriously curtailed by injury. He just couldn’t seem to shake off hamstring injuries and even when he was injury free, he flattered to deceive a lot of the time. He was used sparingly by his fellow Salthill man, Alan Mulholland, in last years championship, something that he cites as one of the main reasons for his retirement. He felt he was treated harshly because he was playing well and that he had much more to offer the team. I tend to agree with him on this regard.
He also stated that he had a long chat with new manager Kevin Walsh and has decided that he won’t be returning to the team in January as he doesn’t think he can give 100% commitment.
Armstrong is the second Galway forward to have retired in a week after James Kavanagh also announced he was stepping away last week. Kevin Walsh has either told these fellas they’re not part of his plans, or is making some serious demands off them if they want to hang around next year.
It’s sad to see Armstrong go in one sense, I still think he has something to offer…It’s even more saddening that we’ve probably seen the last of both him and Meehan in a Galway Jersey, less than ten years after that under-21 win against Down. You have to wonder how much different things could have been for them and Galway Football if they had injury free careers.
