We're building a bit of a habit of semi-final defeats. 4 in a row now since beating Wexford in 2008?

I wouldn't worry. Monaghan have lost their last 6!
Have Monaghan ever beaten Tyrone then won their next match?

Its only their last 4 actually, we are all evens in that department!

I thought 1930 was their last final?

Didnt make the semis for their last two Ulster wins ;)

ONeill

I wanna have my kicks before the whole shithouse goes up in flames.

I think on a normal year I'd be going for tyrone to put monaghan in their place again in croker but this year there is something different about this Monaghan team.

Id say every neutral will be rooting for Monaghan Tyrone and their antics are hard to stomach.

Although both teams play defensive Monaghan tend to kick pass a lot more which is a little easier on the eye.

When people talk about Tyrone's antics and their defensive football it is a clear sign they haven't a clue. Please name one team in the top 6 that have not been involved in some type of cynical play? Tyrone, Dublin, Monaghan, Kerry, Mayo etc all have been at it. Saying Tyrone are worse than other teams really is laughable.

In the last 8 matches Tyrone have averaged 23 points a game. If this is defensive football then I hope it continues for a very long time. There is an article in Tyrone Life today which says that Tyrone are now the 2nd highest scores in All Ireland SFC. 8 games with a total of 182 points only Mayo in 2017 topped them (215 points in 10 games).

Please use facts and examples rather than the usual nonsense that RTE spout.

when people defend tyrone antics its clear they are from tyrone

List for me examples of these "antics" and how they any different from other counties.

Tyrone still dive way more than any other team. Other teams have individuals who dive, tyrone have it as a team tactic. Tyrone under harte also were the first team to introduce sledging as a tactic. It's now a horrible part of football for a few teams but it thankfully hasn't crept into hurling.

Sledging started in 2003 - another quality Lennyism.
That was never a square ball!!

This is hardly news Lenny

The dark arts academy was sighted and exposed a few ago with a fly on the wall investigation by the antiTyrone brigade after Darren Hughes got himself sent off by pulling T McCanns hair

nrico2006

Slabbering on the pitch has been around long ago. Tyrone players dive no more or less than others.
'To the extreme I rock a mic like a vandal, light up a stage and wax a chump like a candle.'

They are probably on a par now cavanagh is gone to be fair. Tiernan mccann still has the spectacular in him though.

ONeill

Footballers do exaggerate injuries a lot. Didn't like what I saw on Sunday.
I wanna have my kicks before the whole shithouse goes up in flames.

ONeill

On another note, McQuillan made the correct call regarding McHugh and Cavanagh. McHugh offloaded the ball and shouldered right into Cavanagh's head. Colm threw his arms around McHugh. Could have been a black for both or none.

Read it again. I didn't say individual players hadn't sledged before. Just that no team had used it as a team tactic. Harte clearly brought it in and it was very effective for tyrone and put off players like gooch. Horrible for the game though overall now that other teams have copied it.

Funnily enough Lenny, I do actually enjoy your contributions. They never fail to make me laugh.

Fancy the auld draw here. Replay in clones.

No extra time at SF stage.

Is that right?

Not correct...Extra time in all games bar provincial finals, All-Ireland final and round robin games.

So extra time in semi finals.
