Good to see Mickey call that vile **** Whelan out.

To compare those 2 situations as if they were similar just shows how much harte has really lost it. It's lucky he has peter Donnelly there at the moment and he has them playing better than at anytime in the last 7 or 8 years.

This is about pumping his anti RTE agenda again...

It will get very awkward at the winner's banquet in September if Michael Lyster wants in to do the traditional interviews.

Is there something going on in Mayo?

Apparently it was not in Johnny Cooper's nature to do this.

We should all lay off Aidan O'Shea.

But Tiernan McCann should apologise.

Whelan is an excellent pundit. Very enjoyable to listen to and very fair. He went slightly over the top last year with mccanns disgraceful and disgusting play acting but he learned from that this year. There is real ambiguity about the oshea "dive" given the pictures circulating on twitter which seem to show a trip by the Fermanagh defender. Harte seems to take every opportunity he can get to bad mouth rte. He should really get over the non promotion of brian carty.

Whelan was shown up as a hypocrite last year, he was more than willing to go to town on Tyrone last year but when his own county turned out a display of thuggery he was there downplaying the incidents and his own players.

As a player he was a thug and as a pundit he is a two faced hypocrite who is willing to push the agenda of his bosses over the fair and balanced display his role should require.

I suppose you are form the same school as Whelan though given your refusal to condemn Enda Lynn's playacting last year that saw a Down man incorrectly red carded.

As for Mickey Harte, I think he has reacted with great dignity and principle after the Free State broadcaster thought it would be funny to mock his daughter's death.

If there was such an anti Tyrone agenda on rte how come this year they have received nothing but praise? The simple fact is for years under harte tyrone were the most cynical team around and masters of the dark arts. Since peter donnelly has come in tyyrone are playing a much more attractive style and they are rightly getting credit. The only agenda is an anti rte agenda from tyrone people. Hartes good friend carty didn't get promoted and harte needs to get over that.

True but don't lump all Tyrone people in that, many can see through it.

Harte wrote a letter to RTE and RTE's response was to leak the letter and commission a skit about him with an extremely insensitive dig about his recently bereaved daughter. Anyone with any moral fibre will see that Harte and the wider Tyrone GAA community is justified in their stance with RTE.

The simple fact is that there have been other teams every bit as cynical and masters at the dark arts as Tyrone in the past few years that have got off without as much as a whisper.

Dublin have had a couple of biting allegations, gouging, behind closed doors mass brawls, two of their players up in court for assaults, guys like Cooper and McMahon regularly acting the maggot. No mud has stuck there, there is no log book being collected on Dublin's unsavoury incidents.

In fact some of the stuff which has been used as a stick to beat Tyrone has been completely erroneous, the lies spread and spread about the two minors last year, the rubbish spouted about our u21s last years. No apologies have been forthcoming about that, have they?

I don't care what they say about Tyrone, I just only care that other counties are held to the same strict scrutiny we are, which as you and I both know is not the case.

Ah boo hoo. We can donate some Kleenex if you need it

Whelan is an excellent pundit. Not afraid to offer an opinion and he himself would admit that he was a bit harsh on McCann last year.

[theticklemister]

Lynn clearly got fingers in the eye. He went down on wan knee to recover the hit.

He did not intentionally get the fella the line. Poor decision by referee.


Tyrone supporters are a bunch of bastards.

Is it possible to like a team and hate their supporters. I am starting to warm to the players; but no chance the supporters, although rrhf, O'Neill and the strabane lads are funny feckers.

Never heard anything from him to suggest that. But maybe your a spokesman for his interior monologue?

[seafoid]

I hope to see a Tyrone Lives Matter march on the streets soon.

It would be more likely to be a Tyrone Feelings Matter march

Lynn intentionally dived, call a spade a spade.

You obviously feel so strongly about this that it's probably time for you to show solidarity with harte and boycott rte also. It's clearly upsetting you too much to watch it.

[seafoid]

Why can't Harte and RTE bury the hatchet?
Or does being the injured party drive Throne on, Millwall style ?

Harte will never give in but his players and other members of the management team should be allowed to speak to rte after and even before games. They are shooting themselves in the foot with this team and management boycott.

Bomber you have lost it son. Madness to call Ciaran Whelan a thug. Bloody good player!

Not many modern day midfielders would score a goal like the one he got against Armagh in 02.

Totally agree and he is developing into the best pundit on tv. Articulate, fair and intelligent in his opinions. Much better than Tomas ose, dessie dolan and brian Mcguigan. If sky continue their coverage for a few more years I can see them trying to poach him.
