another low down act by a Tyrone player. The level of thuggery that this one team has introduced to Gaelic games is shameful. Mickey Harte is single handedly turning Gaelic football into a bigger thugfest than those international rules that he keeps blathering about. Bloody hypocrite.

The hypocrisy is something else isn't it!

Why don't we just have a citing commissioner at every match ala rugby and then we can catch everybody who steps over the line ??

I agree, linesmen have no balls to tell the referee what happened for fear of backlash from the crowd.

April Fool's are supposed to be done before noon. Any after, makes you the fool.

The question is whether or not Tyrone will accept punishment if it is deemed necessary by CCCC.  Let the games begin again 

I think Mc Guigan only deserves 4 weeks, but in comparison to Ricey's incident they were both along the same lines so the CCCC doesn't really have any other option than to give him 8 weeks or they will have alot of explaining to do over Ricey's ban.

Also, if he is banned, it shouldn't be a length ban it should be a match ban as if it's 4 weeks he will only miss one match.

Tyrone attacker Tommy McGuigan may be facing a four-week ban following an incident involving Derry's Sean Marty Lockhart during last Saturday's NFL clash at Omagh.

The Central Competitions Control Committee met on Tuesday to review evidence of the incident, and are expected to propose a four-week suspension for the Ardboe clubman, which would rule him out of Sunday week's final round NFL Division 1 game against Mayo. If that happened, McGuigan would have the option of appealing to the Central Hearings Committee.

Oh dear god that'll explain why the Ladies Ulster Council meeting in Kellys tonight was cancelled due to "another urgent booking".  They wouldn't let us in the door but I saw Pat Darcy's car outside! 

Will try to confirm with a reliable source.

I don't know if you are being serious or not, but if you are you've truley been got!!

Not to mention the site is called BCC

Just sent a text to a notable relative to check - if this isn't true then I'm in bother for waking him.  

My dad's heard nothing around Strabane anyway.

You are joking aren't you.

Right enough, i hope they're joking!

[There's a slim chance we could make the final but I doubt if there are too many bothered to be honest.]

Oakleafer Murphy started against Dublin in '07 and was playing superbly only to be replaced by Skinner at half time.  I think Murphy is looking more and more impressive with each game he plays and would certainly have him at CHF.

I do agree however that Bumble should get another chance now against Donegal, he'd be disappointed if he didn't.  We don't need to win this by 5 or 6, if Kerry could manage a 2-3 point win over Galway we would only need the same.  There's a slim chance we could make the final but I doubt if there are too many bothered to be honest.  Cant see it doing us much good.  Like the Galway and Tyrone games, I'd be more interested in a good performance.

What county do you think we are from sideline? to be talking about turning up our noses at a national league title is laughable from a county like ours! And just to remind us, we got beat by kerry, we got beat by Tyrone, we drew with galway.... where are the improvements from this time last year? As i told you before Sideline........ stick to reality!

I don't think its a case of turninour noses up at a National leage final, more to do with keeping out eyes on the prize (ulster) and not getting distracted, it did us no good last year.

Oh sorry forgot to mention, Bumble from Ballinascreen, he should be getting a run out, seen him yesterday against Lavey in Ulster league SF in Screen yesterday, scoring from all angles terrorising the defence, given we were very very poor but you can only play what is in front of you, definitely should get a run out before the end of the league.

Thats true, James Kielt had a poor showing on Sat night with a previously high standard especially against Kerry. Browner is usually handy enough, free miss was one of them things. Defence is relatively good, couple of players fighting for their places Mc Cusker/Mc Cloy for FB, and then theres O Kane, SL Mc Goldrick, Kevin Mc Guckin etc. B Mc Goldrick has proven to be handy in CHB, and double up as a scoring half back which is always useful. The half forward line remains somewhat of a dilemma, I think James Kielt is better suited to the centre and Murphy on the wing (However I think Murphy might actually be better used as an impact sub, as he usually feels he has to prove himself in these instances i.ie Dublin 07) With Lynch back in the fold come championship time the team is anybodys guess. As long as DC doesn't do a Paddy Crozier and puts out a team like that which faced Monaghan in the back door last year, in all the years I have been supporting Derry I think I have yet to see a worse team lineout.

Derry are by no means the finished article and very much still a work-in progress, but I think we can give Ulster a good rattle this year, and anything else is a bonus.

So can Derry beat Donegal by 5+ points to make the league final (provided Kerry beat Galway at home)??

Have we learned from Tyrone?
What changes will Cassidy implement?
Do we really want to be in the league final this year after crashing and burning in last years championship?

i remember a few years a go there was a fierce rivialrary between balinderry and glack. in one such occasion, glack were up by 5 points and balinderry got rattled and started a fite and the game was abandoned. enda muldoon got roasted that day by ur man micheal form glack. then they went for a pint after the game.

Ballinderry must have a habit of that, they started a big riot in Lavey one day, barrackaded the changing rooms so Lavey couldn't get out.
