Great draw for both teams.

Home advantage for Cavan should make this a real 50/50 match up (or is it in Clones??).

Being away form Omagh won't hurt Tyrone either I would say.

For whoever wins this will be perfect preparation for a crack at one of the beaten Provincial finalists.

No point in having walkovers at this stage....

Nope.
If you were any use you'd be playing.

Great draw for Tyrone and the one draw Cavan didn't want. They haven't beaten Tyrone in the championship since the 80s?

This will be hard fought but I can't see anything other than a Tyrone win by 4-6 points. Would have went for a two point win but Cavan are already down two very important men to red cards and possibly more on the way if the suits look into that melee further.

We usually wrap up big McKiernan quite well and no Givney to cause headaches in the FF line. Out of interest, where is he these days?

Weather should still be hot by the weekend and hoping for a good match to boot.

Lads, I'm assuming this can't be a home game for Cavan?

five points

We don't have a venue.

If I was Cavan I'd be pushing for this to be played in Omagh....

Enniskillen again maybe?

Jaysus...hopefully not...prehistoric venue and worse facilities

Athletic grounds would be perfect....

If I was a Cavan man and the game had to be played in a neutral venue, I'd rather play it in a neutral venue where we had won the week before.

I believe Cavan have designated Clones as a home venue when they told HQ that Breffni was out of bounds. If I were them Id be looking for Brewster. That said we have no chance the way Mattie is setting us up. Hard to even get motivated to attend this game such was the pure shit served up on Saturday

There's certain posters on the Tyrone pages that have been calling for Mattie to take over the Tyrone job as he will bring a more expansive style of football.
That was never a square ball!!

Armagh v Clare might obstruct the Athletic grounds.

At least Omagh shouldn't be flooded this week.
If at first you don't succeed, then goto Plan B

Surely it'll be in Clones?
