No interviews with the Derry Post in future lol

Mark Sidebottom.

Thought James Keilt was poor last night saw Colm C run past him and he couldn't have gave a crap.

Somebody locked the Tyrone v Derry thread before I could go on and wind up screenexile and the rest of the inbreds 

Is the admin from Derry?

Might be following game is Spurs match.

If a TV is an MPEG4 type it should receive RTE without having to get any other device.

Guardiola to City  . . . United look to be relegated to noisy neighbours for the foreseeable future!!!!

This is old news, he was always heading to City.

Goes back to my question then who is going to replace LVG, do they give it to Giggs and say have a go because there are no major candidates available?

They would be silly not to go for Jose.
I hope they don't as I fear he would be a fantastic success at United.
Hold onto LVG would be my advice!

The hierarchy of the club dont seem too keen on Jose for one reason or another.

MM is right he isnt coming into anything like the teams he had at Barca or Bayern and even buying this will take a bit of time. I think Klopp even has found out that coming with an idea of a system isnt always a guarantee of success. Longer term Klopp might be but I would say Pep will have paid attention to this.

There's been quite a few reports recently that Fergie has very little sway with the Glazers these days and completely trust Woodward  on everything. If LVG is sacked then I'm expecting Mourinho to come in, I just don't see why he wouldn't go for Mourinho as its likely Fergie & Gill who would be against his appointment previously. A defeat tomorrow and there has to be a strong chance LVG would go although given the way we're playing the next defeat is only a few games away. Woodward seems intent on keeping LVG until any chance of top 4 has gone which is ridiculous.

Yeah there definitely seems to be a case of stand by your man by Woodward at all costs, and not that I have any real sympathy toward him but no candidate bar Maureen is standing out. If there are another couple of defeats in the next month or so LVG will go and Giggs will manage to the end of the season, LVG will be doing well to see the summer regardless.

If Mourinho was to come to UTD who would he keep and sell?

Good enough team.

[The Tyrone minors were cleared of the allegations]

Calling players cowards is slightly different from your hate filled comment regarding the issues that McCarron has had to deal with over the last year or so? That has ZERO place on this board. Mc Carrons private life shouldn't be brought up here?

It wasn't exactly private now was it.  Plus you've given ten times as much airtime as my initial jibe.

Calling people cowards should have no place on a GAA discussion forum either.

Typical Tyrone attitude, I'll throw out all the insults I like, but I reserve the right to get very offended when someone insults me.

Exactly, if this was a player from another county tyrone posters would be all over it with none too subtle digs and insulting comments. Its the same on the pitch, if he had to play against tyrone they would target him hard with hate filled comments from the first minute to the last. Its just as well for him he doesnt have to come up against tyrone.

Just to clarify? Has any Tyrone poster ever brought the private life of a player into the discussion regarding a match? You seem fairly confident about this, so I'm sure you wouldn't mind putting up a few examples. McCarron isn't the only player who has had to deal with personal problems so I'm sure there must be loads of evidence on here of Tyrone lads making subtle digs and insulting comments for you to choose from.

A Tyrone poster called a few Derry players by name and basically said they were all cowards.  Now, if you walked up to a guy in a bar and called him a coward, you'd be very likely to get a slap in the mouth.  Why?  Because it's an insult.  Now, you posters have to make your choice.  Either you have no insults at all, or anything goes.  I'm cool with either.  What's not cool is you guys getting all 'holier than thou' because someone gave one of your guys a dig, right after one of your own posters has done the exact same.  If McCarron was a Derry player, you guys would have a field day.  It's your way.  That was proven by the actions of your minors towards young Carroll in Donegal.

Ive looked back through the thread. I'm genuinely being serious here, I can't find the 'coward' comment that upset you so much that you thought it appropriate to bring insults about a players private life into the discussion as retaliation? Can you repost it so we know what your talking about?

Your poster named players, made some remark about them not being manly enough and then proceeded to describe them as 'lying down con men'. I took that as meaning cowardly (forgive me, but I think it was a fair summation of the comment).  However, by any barometer, it would pass the test of being an insult.  And as for the 'bit of craic' there was far more humour in my comment than in most of the others. (IMO of course). But if you can excuse these comments as being a 'bit of craic' then fair enough, sure I'll say that's what I was at too and we'll all get along grand.

You're a fuckwit.

The Tyrone minors were cleared of the allegations labelled against them in a report where the findings were accepted by both parties. Yet you still find it necessary to throw mud at them?

God help you if Derry ever become a force again where their actions will be under the microscope simply because they're a team from the O6 who have the establishment counties running scared. The misrepresentation and slurring of Tyrone for any incident they have been involved in is getting ridiculous at this stage.

If I was Derry I'd be more worried about the fact that your side engaged in the dark arts on Saturday night, instigating two melees in the closing stages of the game, diving to get a Tyrone player sent off, kicking the ball away to thwart a kickout and yet still couldn't see it out against 13 men.

You got your just desserts.

Teamtalkmag reported that tyrone were cleared of the allegations but a few days later it became clear that they hadn't reported the facts of the report or the spirit of the report. The report said that it was very likely that the donegal player in question was sledged repeatedly by tyrone players although not about the death of his father. This sledging seems to be completely endemic in tyrone football but thankfully in most other counties it hasn't become the same sockening issue.

So that's why Derry lost on Saturday night, because you think Tyrone minors didn't get cleared of what happened/didn't happen in a game last may?

We've nothing against Cavan, have we? 2005 was a long time ago.

There's talk of Gerry Kineevy coming out of retirement to ref it for the craic.

Sam number 4 then. He handed them the first 2.

Thanks for all the help Gerry.

But then weight that up against getting two injuries to very key players for Derry which could be very damaging long term, Lynn in particular. Bigger fish to fry further down the line but certainly good preparation for the league. I think Derry and Tyrone will both finish in the top 2 in the league.

I think Derry and Tyrone will top Div 2. Another meeting of them in Croke Park few weeks before the championship is what everyone really needs.

Let Longford beat them in the Championship?

Was the final not live on BBC on the red button last year?

It was, just after some irish league soccer match Ir ecall. Eoin Donnelly is some operator, if only tyrone had him!

In reality none of these derry matches matter but I suppose its better to keep the winning trend going or do you give the losing team the psychological edge come championship, its hard to know but I imagine the championship game when it comes along to be a 1 - 0 borefest as they will know each other that well!

1 - 0 to Derry as they have home advantage? lol

Dire Straits - Brothers in arms
