Carmen never looked like losing against pomeroy, however Pomeroy missed a gilt edge goal chance when the score was 4-3. Pomeroys keeper also hit 3 poor kick outs in a row in the second half and Carmen scored from all 3 of these. In fairness to their keeper he made 2 brilliant saves too. Was surprised how defensive pomeroy were especially with the wind in the first half.

Arsenal as shite as they have been, I still think they will get 4th place above Liverpool.

Dublin are the toughest team in the division.....
Monaghan played the majority of the 2nd half with 13 players and we just about scrapped over the line. Cavan are shite.

Since the anonymous Tyrone player went to the Dublin media about having to pay the £15 to the County Board the wheels have fairly come off Tyrone's league campaign. Have the players downed tools? are they being distracted by the pound coin?

[Can anyone name me an inside forward in the country with the stature of those guys mentioned above who is currently one of the best in the country? The day of the speedy, skillful, small corner forward is not gone. Today it's about the big/strong guys who can their own ball and are deadly in front of the posts - guys like Geaney, McCarron, McManus, McBrearty, Murphy, Comer, Quinlavin etc. I don't think there is any point blaming Harte for the failure of the likes of McCurry, Brennan, O'Neill etc.]

On an alternative note, have we any inside forwards worth their salt in the county that have the stature to make an impact at the top level?

Coney had the potential but had his chances and looks like he's not going to fulfill it. Don't know the ins and outs with McNulty but he surely has to be worth a shot?

The guys we have there - Brennan, Bradley, McCurry, O'Neill are all slight/small guys and when the opposition pack the defences with strong, physical and athletic players then these guys will struggle to make a mark inside.

How do the anti-Harte experts propose we solve Harte's failings in tactics and selections? We're all ears, lads.

Jamie Clarke, James O'Donoghue.....there you go.....next question

O'Donoghue is not that small or slight and in any case, what's he really done since 2014?

Clarke is a class act but the way the game has evolved renders him ineffective. Guys like McCurry, O'Neill, Bradley etc would have lit up the game 10 years ago, not now though.

McCurry would only light a game up if you were 7 points up!!

Complete joke not to close out that game yesterday. 15 wides and 3/4 into keepers hands.

McCurry was awful, he's the type of player when you are winning well would be kicking points from everywhere, however, when the pressure comes on he is a bottler!! The chance he had with a few minutes to go with match level, after Sean Cavanagh broke play up and the break was on summed him up. He didn't know whether to shoot or pass and then done neither played a stupid floated ball in that the keeper punched clear.

Matty Donnelly was very poor yesterday too. Sooner we forget about McShane the better, I don't know what anyone sees in him, never seems to make the correct decision on the ball. Bradley showed some glimpse's of what he can do but spent most of the game too deep.

The amount of hand-passing we do in tight spaces in the forward line is serious, completely overplay the ball.

Think we could with a bit of a shake up for this.

I'd give Donnelly another chance at FF.

1. Morgan
2. Hamspey
3. McNamee
4. McCarron
5. T McCann
6. Burns
7. Meyler
8. C Cavanagh
9. S Cavanagh
10. Sludden
11. C McCann
12. Harte
13. McCurry (O'Neill if McCurry injured)
14. M Donnelly
15. Bradley

Was McCurry injured last week?

Like a bit of a mix up myself. Id go with:
1. N Morgan (rotation)
2. P Hampsey
3. R McNammee
4. HP McGeary
5. T McCann
6. R Brennan
7. K McGeary
8. C Cavanagh
9. F Burns
10. M Donnelly
11. N Sludden
12. P Harte
13. M Bradley
14. S Cavanagh
15. C Meyler (roaming)

Goals will come - Really like the look of that team. Id like to see Munroe given a go at 6.

Ronan O'Neill must have serious dirt on Micky Harte, its worse he is getting yet he still starts. Absolutely awful, shouldn't be near the panel near mind first 15.

Frank Burns bound to be ahead of Mulgrew, but for Pomeroy's run I am sure would have played more. i'd say we will see him get a run of games now.

Do Killyclougher have no underage or have they been missed by accident?

Cappagh

Rony O'Neill starts again.....am I missing something? he's brutal slow in open play and hes not even that tara at the frees.

Mcgeary is out injured for a few months by reports.

I think the problem with Dungannon was that 2 club men were appointed as managers but players wouldn't have it, so the club insisted players would have to pay an outside manager.
Dungannon have had intermediate success in recent years with inside men (slater and Mcrory).

Why are the Patriots disliked so much? Is it just the fact that they have won so much? Or am I missing something here?

They cheat.............a lot

Exactly

Winners WIN and losers they complain alot
Remember the deflated football
Saga
Brady was well aware of it

Ronan O'Neill....the next peter canavan?? Holy f**k
