Tyrone Club Football and Hurling

[square_ball]

A poor weekends football overall. Weather conditions today didn't allow for good games which is fair enough but there wasn't much to write home about in the previous 3 days. Trillick/Loughmacrory at least provided a bit of excitement. 

Edendork the pick of the performances. Errigal still the team to beat in senior. You'd still have to fancy Clonoe pretty strongly for intermediate.

What is the QF draw for Intermediate?

[square_ball]

1. Clonoe v Aghyaran
2. Clogher v Kildress/Moy
3. Derrylaughan/Stewartstown v Gortin
4. Pomeroy v Owen Roes

I think semi final is 1v2 & 3v4

Edit for having Tatts instead of Aghyaran

Carmen in decline despite the heavy outlay on outside manager/coach, Omagh worse with an even bigger expenditure on manager and coach from outside.Must be a long time since Carmen surrendered so meekly.

Totally agree & unacceptable for a panel of that quality to surrender so meekly as you put it.. I don't think in the grand scheme of things Edendork are a 7/8 point better team than us but it was men against boys on Saturday. Its going to be hard now to keep boys at it for the Semi finals of the league. The big question the club has to answer in the off season is who will be appointed for next season, no doubt the rumour mill will be in full flow for every club come Novemeber.

Should we expect times and venues to be released tonight even with two games still to play after tonight in intermediate ?

Carrickmore, Omagh and Killyclogher be three teams on the look out for new management set ups. Three awful first round displays from them.

Big problem facing Carrickmore at the moment and in the future is the make up of their squad. They seem overloaded with defenders, wing back type players and are trying to shoe horn them all in and ending up with square pegs in round holes. Also they need Fullerton and McGarrity to develop consistency to become top club level forwards in order for Carrickmore to be genuine contenders for Championships.

is sunday night a bad time to have games

is sunday night a bad time to have games

Only thing worse than a Sunday game is a Sunday evening game. Poor Gortin and Strabane waiting until 8:15 on a Sunday evening for a game is brutal.

i would say players would probably prefer playing  really early on saturday like 11am or 12pm than sunday night

Something about a game that late on a Sunday evening that I really hated as a player. I would even prefer to be Stewartstown/Derrylaughan and playing on a Monday evening than that slot on a Sunday.

Any reason for there to be no venue yet for Coalisland v Ardboe? Maybe waiting to see what kind of shape Edendork is after that game yesterday. Not sure what other venue they can use. Pomeroy maybe?

Edendork is an extremely poor venue for a championship game.
2 small turnstiles that create long queues, no stand or anywhere to shelter from the elements, parking is poor and often dangerous, no toilets or shop facilities, no bins anywhere, the pitch is a complete bog, water lying on top of it and cuts up badly.

[Goals_Will_Come]

Pomeroy must be the worst set up in the county. Massively outdated facilities. Grass not being cut is another problem it has as a venue.

Maybe they are in discussions for the Athletic grounds.
Is the new Dungannon pitch not yet available?
