Am I right in saying that no manager/team has recorded more wins against Dublin since 2013 than Mickey Harte/Tyrone?
Don't know but true to form he's opposed to the new back pass rule.

Back-pass rule brings nothing to the game.  In fact, it may draw more forwards back into midfield defence in order to create more kick-out options. The full press by most teams is pretty effective and good craic to watch.-don't see why it should be made more difficult for the team trying to come out and attack.

The killing of games is generally done by the half-backs, mid-fielders.  If you could eliminate the touchline to touchline passing in the middle third by havin a max pass (foot or fist) count, you would instantly eradicate the 20-30 minutes of boredom that we have to endure in a lot of big games.  Poor oul' keepers...

if we had better referees I would fully agree but they cant ref the rules that are there so i'm really not in favour of introducing more .
easy way to stop the lateral passing is to allow a good robust tackle,
As long as there is no strike or  hold then play on the soccer style shithousery would end very quickly and ease the burden on refs

The problem with this is that (more often than not) the lateral passing is executed in a safe zone where there are no tacklers.  You have to somehow force players into kicking the ball into the forwards.

Mayo always seem to find a way to stay in the 1st division ......sometimes with the last kick of the ball on the final day. I really wouldn't bet against them doing the exact same this year as well...i really wouldnt. My poor wallet will testify to that!

Donie Buckley gone from Kerry when they needed him to improve them in defence.

I'm sure he'd be welcome back in Mayo if he's stuck for something to be at

Might not be a bad thing, we've been woeful defensively in this campaign and our tackling isn't what it used to be.

The drop of intensity in our tackling has been very noticeable of late . Is that really down to Buckley not been with them last 18 months or so though ? I just can't imagine his training method's been much different or Indeed what he taught them been forgotten . Is it more down to bodies of our older lads been just that 'older" and younger men coming in not near the s&c peaks them older lads reached as of yet ?

Read the question ? That's not what he asked . If you wanna act the p***k don't backdoor it , be straight about it ffs..
And ffs yourself, maybe you should go back and read the question yourself!
If you bothered your asss to do so, you'd see it was a rhetorical one- the poster already knew the answer; he just wanted to brag about Tyrone's achievements. And the reply was in the same spirit- it pointed out that Tyrone hadn't won anything that really counted. Taking the wind out of Whistup's sail in a manner of speaking.
A bit of banter between two longtime posters who each knew the other's form.
I'd have thought that a dysfunctional baboon with an IQ lower than his asshole wouldn't need anyone to explain that to him.
Then along comes you...
You seem to spend far too much time prowling about this board looking for something to bitch about and using schoolyard language to do so. Maybe you should consider taking up some less stressful pastime to cope with the chip on your shoulder- maybe playing the flute, as opposed to acting it.

Anybody know the reason that Donnie is gone ?
