How would Carmen be a championship team and them not won a championship in 14 years? They will make the semi finals though.

That's our county champions we've just watched tonight I doubt. That defeat will be sore in Dromore for many years to come. They've fallen well back too.

Carrickmore will beat Edendork on yesterday's viewing but it'll be a tight game. Penrose rolled back the years yesterday, still a handful. Derrylaughan and Tattyreagh very weak, were total mismatches. Omagh looked good yesterday and I think they have to be slight favourites v Errigal but it'll be a good game. O'Neill had some nice flashes yesterday but he won't be playing for Tyrone again, just be a good club forward. Was disappointed in Dungannon given their league results, until Kiefer Morgan came on their forward line was really lackluster. They're a good bit away from competing with the big boys yet.


I don't think Kavanagh has played a minute of league football with injury so it's hardly a shock he's not been involved if he's only back training.

Weather conditions awful so that was a factor but two pretty poor games. McShane could have scored much more if he was clinical, was at a different level. In the second game Eglish play a particularly bad brand of football, hard looked at. Ref in second game was shocking and could barely run to keep up with play, he can't be getting any more senior championship games. Canavan and Ethan Jordan with some nice glimpses. Aidan McCrpry for the stick he gets was excellent. McKenna for Errigal with a suspected bad knee injury, bad run of injuries with McCartan and McGirr out too.

County board wouldn't pay him what he wanted so couldn't retain him. It's purely financial. A real lack of foresight on the county boards behalf in my opinion. One that they'll in time regret.

Sure the wee six don't matter anyway. Absolute joke.

Realistically we'll keep losing referees as our treatment of them in Tyrone and in the GAA as a whole is very poor. It's an extremely difficult job where generally management are barking constantly from the sideline and 30 players in some form or another are trying to con the referee in some regard. I've done it myself, everyone has. Whether that's as blatant as exaggerating contact to win a free or calling a sideline ball for your team when you know it's not actually yours. Generally they all try their best, most of the time it probably is substandard. However, because of our treatment of referees you generally will scare off many potential candidates.

Coalisland will be very confident. Will be nothing in it I'd imagine. 3 excellent QF's ahead. The other one should be close but may lack the same quality.

I don't really get why Errigal retaining players and keeping them playing football (regardless of ability level) is being seen as a bad thing. Other big clubs lose players to soccer or transfers to other clubs. Omagh boys going to Drumragh, Tattureagh, Dregish, Drumquin or Coalisland/Clonoe boys going to Brocagh/Derrytresk, etc.

None of this was an issue in other years the Thirds finished near bottom of the league, etc. Knowing the boys on the Thirds they've been lucky this last two years to have got good management in place whereas years previous they struggled to get anyone to take them. Added to the fact older boys have left the senior/reserve panel due to age and not being able to make the required commitment it's left them a good side this year.

Also, there's only ever been one club for the parish of Errigal Ciaran which comprises of 4 TOWNLANDS. It was previously named Ballygawley St Ciarans

Championship runners up and league champions but only have two on the panel. The bias is sickening from Mickey!

I think the final should be in carrickmore. Not only because it's neutral but also because the atmosphere would be electric. Would be a real throwback. I'd say either way both teams won't care too much.

Cassidy is a complete pr1ck! Don't know how the Clonoe players listen to him f@ucking them off constantly every game. Would drive me mad.

If you think we'd play better football under Tally you'd be very wrong. Incredibly negative tactically!

Is that Liz the hurler who put on an exhibition of her talents in Croke Park? Point stands, we don't have the same talent in our forward line as we did in the 00's. Hartes done very well to cover them deficiencies through a system (albeit dire to watch when faced with s team playing similarly). It does need tweaking to be slightly more attacking but we lost by a point (and really shouldn't have only for bad wides) to a team that took Dublin to the pin of their collars twice.

The same tactics that lost just one game all year (by a point) and won an Ulster title. Some crying c@nts on here just get a hard on for complaining about Harte even when he's doing a good job. Be careful what you wish for, look at the state of the likes of Armagh now and think of United post SAF. The man will only be truly appreciated when he's gone I doubt.
