Ulster Senior football championship 2024

If Monaghan can constantly put it up to Tyrone than why can't Cavan.

We've a awful inferiority complex when it comes to Tyrone beaten before we hit the field.

Let's hope it's changed under this management.

As that Tyrone side can be vulnerable.

Our contemporary record against Tyrone in Ulster SFC is absolutely deplorable. What few draws we managed when catching them on the hop the first day were routinely followed by chastening hammerings in the replays. You'd think the underage successes would have changed the mindset but nope. No victory in SFC over Tyrone since 1983! If we pull it off this year there'll be some surge of self belief.

Is Tyrone/ Cavan in Omagh?

Is Tyrone/ Cavan in Omagh?

No, Breffni. Cavan were away today, so they get home next day out. Tyrone would have been at home if Monaghan won

It's reported Darren Hughes is home out of hospital tonight and there's nothing broken in his leg. An MRI in the coming days will determine the extent of ligament damage.

Saw that from Cahair O'Kane. Could be one of those ones where you might have been better breaking your leg. I blew my knee 10 years ago and surgeon said a bone break would have been easier to fix

Doesn't send a great message to the rest of the squad when Beggan can just swan back in, with no training, and start.

And it was obvious too. All well and good kicking for months in practice, and running reps in the US, but clear he was short of match play compared to others out there. He looked goosed multiple times 2nd half late on and got caught once, and even some of his placed kicks were off target when he was blowing a bit and fatigued

If 14 odd years of unbroken and exemplary service doesn't build enough points to do this, then I'm at a loss to understand the "gaa mindset".

I would love to see teams launching kickouts out on top of the opposition goalkeeper when he comes out to stand on one side of the pitch during kickouts it's a great platform to attack and go for goal if they opposition don't win it as there is 65m of open field to drive into.

Agree. Not sure why this isnt done. There is no risk to the team with the kickout but there is a potential for a huge reward

Probably because you will be outnumbered under the ball if you do that?

[Applesisapples]

Sure the lucks been hanging out of the penalty Kick Champs (X2), why change anything? just go full of the bull until it goes pear shaped and then think about it.

Any examples of when other Ulster teams didn't go all out to win Ulster and as a direct result they won an AI?

In the second year if the current competition?

Tyrone had a fair degree of ambivalence to the USFC in noughties. But I'm sure that's the response you were waiting for to refute it.

Harte and the players?

"A couple of years we were of the mindset that we were going to win the All-Ireland and were beaten in the first round. It didn't do us any harm. We went on to win it from there twice."

A quote from Sean Cavanagh today funny enough.

Cavanagh is becoming the new Joe Brolly.

[imtommygunn]

Brolly is more palatable and that is saying something...

[tbrick18]

Well dunno where that came from but up Cavan. Beggan mom, what are they smoking in BBC?

Ridiculous decision, they were dying to give it to Beggan simply due to the fact that he got an NFL trial.

Personally thought Beggan should have done better for that first goal in injury time.
