Jez, Spillane just would not let O'Hara or Whealan talk about the GPS that Tyrone were using. Poor form! It was one of those if you can't argue just shout him down! And as for the Blanket rant about Limerick..... jez!  :-[
I didn't see the program, wtf is this GPS thing you mention?

Conor Gromley has one on his ankle so he doesn't break bail  :-X
;D
So it's not that Mickey needs the technology to find out where his players are on the pitch?

If memory serves me right the highlights failed to show SoN's and Matty Donnelly's peaches of scores from the left wing in the first half. Instead we got Spillane talking over the other two boys for 30secs not even allowing them to rebuke his verbal diarrhea.

Is the GPS the reason why one of the Tyrone lads was wearing a sports bra or do they all wear them anyway.

I didn't watch the Sunday Witch Hunt this weekend.

But I am disappointed to see reports that a footballer I have long admired, called for the resignation of another footballer I used to admire when he played, from the armchair of the weekly Sunday Rant. He may have been correct in everything he said, but National TV is not the place to knife a man.

True but he only responded to a question he was asked.

I don't doubt that Walsh has royally fcuked up and that Eamon O'Hara wasn't 100% right in what he was saying. I just don't think the Sunday Game was the place to air those grievances.

If O'Hara had went to town like that on Micky Harte or another high profile manager he would be out of a job today.

I would agree.

There are bound to be other forums to air this in.

I know reading some of the crap in the Irish News about boys who are off the panel coming out and complaining about the antrim manager is embarassing.

Though the other journalists, like Des Cahill, are putting boys in this position.

Syferus

There is as a total a disconnect as I have ever seen between the reception by people this actually effects and those looking in on a Sunday night.

Thought O'Hara's response was measured & obviously truthful, didn't think it was vindictive.

I doubt that. Mickey Harte doesn't even talk to RTE.

Seanie, I respect your opinions on this site and if you and the other genuine Sligo contributors say something is seriously wrong then I will believe it.

I also have tremendous respect what O'Hara has done for his county. His gravitas within the game is undisputed and that is why he quickly went from retirement to being a pundit on TSG.

O'Hara may have made the right call, but it is not the place to do it. Even the Cork strikers and the Mayo car pushers didn't have such a public platform to campaign from, and yet I am fairly sure (certain in the case of Mayo) that they regretted the very public and thus personal nature of their statements.

In a couple of years, if not months, when the heat has gone out of the moment I suspect he will have regrets.
