Armagh fans have announced details of a planned ‘show of solidarity’ with the family of murdered Lurgan woman Natalie McNally ahead of Sunday’s Division One clash with Mayo.
The game is the first home fixture of the League for Kieran McGeeney’s men and the Armagh county board have invited the McNally family to attend.
Both sets of supporters are asked to be upstanding for a minute’s applause on the 32nd minute at the Box-It Athletic Grounds in memory of Natalie and to offer support to her grieving family.

Natalie, 32, was stabbed to death in her Silverwood Green home in Lurgan on Sunday 18 December - she was 15 weeks pregnant at the time of her death.
Last Saturday, over 1,000 people attended a rally at Lurgan Park calling for an end to violence against women and to remember the murdered Lurgan woman.
Saturday's rally at was co-ordinated by the National Women's Council of Ireland (NWCI). Many carried placards reading "Justice for Natalie", and "She was only at home".

Those attending were also asked to wear pink and blue in memory of Natalie and Dean, the baby boy she was carrying at the time of her murder.
This weekend’s show of support by Armagh supporters follows similar moves from Glenavon FC and Everton FC.
Sunday’s game in Armagh City, which is also live on TG4, is expected to draw a huge crowd with over 15,000 fans set to watch the Orchard County take on Kevin McStay’s Mayo in round two of the Allianz Football League.
It will also be an opportunity for the GAA community to support the McNally family in their fight for justice.
Detectives continue to appeal for anyone with information relating to Natalie's death to contact them on 101.
