"It's not just the removal of the helmet though, it's if you've to stop the play to allow a physio on at all."

If I have to stop play.

Though if a physio comes on and can administer a spray while play continues I'm happy with that, should I have to blow the whistle and the player requires assistance they have to go off, now seeing as it was my first real go at it, I waved the player on rather than waiting for a break, he was genuinely hurt from a tackle from the other team, its a bit unfair surely to disadvantage them twice? 

But is that not wrong, going by them new rules?

Completely

Bitta common sense needs to be applied and while I'm not against following it to the letter, sometimes it's actually counterproductive and not serving the reason why it's introduced

Omens are okay... Tyrone won 2001 All Ireland minor final in Breffini Park beating Dublin in a replay... Joe McMahon was playing and on backroom team now so knows the ground well... h'up

Keane right about Haaland

A stopped clock is right twice in the day. He also said Liverpool would win the League!

They might yet. I fancy Chelsea to beat City this weekend in the cup and trigger a pep implosion. 2 points behind with 18 to play for. It's still on.

Let's hope so.

I'm sure we are all still here lurking. Delighted with our 2nd half against Mayo. 3 years in a row beating them. I think the group format hugely benefitted us. Team should be stronger than last time we played Galway and I felt we handed them 2 goals the last day whilst missing a few more of our own. I also feel psychologically Galway having to face us instead of being in the final would be annoying for them.

When Letrim went 1-13 to 1-7 up against us, it would hard to see where we are now.

Fair play to our lads for finding a way.

It's gets worse for Tyrone as it now transpires that in the history of Ulster GAA, Tyrone have NEVER beaten Cavan in Breffni Park.

Can't see the record being broken this weekend as Tyrone misery continues.

Does that mean they can't do anything in an Ireland with 2 different jurisdictions operating?

It means a united Ireland is a central tenet of GAA aspiration and should remain that way.

A shame for Liverpool that it's an FA Cup game and not a Premier League game City have this weekend.
It may be still on for you but City have been there and done it, i'd expect them to win all remaining League games once they get last night out of their system and as I said lucky for them they are playing in the Cup this weekend rather than Premier League.
