What happened on the last play for the winner ? Obviously Kilcoo had the kickout from the previous wide and they were still showing the replay and EC turned it over.

Happens with TG4 probably more than it should
Let no-one say the best hurlers belong to the past. They are with us now, and better yet to come

Happy for Errigal. They get a lot of stick within the county because of their success, so there's always extra pressure on them.

Thought Harte was exceptional second half.
I wanna have my kicks before the whole shithouse goes up in flames.

Aye TG4 ballsed that up.  It wasn't even a turnover as you would expect.  The Kilkoo player tried to make a quick pass and gifted the pass straight to an EC player instead.

Didn't appear that way live at the game to be honest. I can vividly remember him getting turned over in contact twice in front of us in the second half alone. He was good but think exceptional is too strong a word

Their relentless commitment to being complete tramps is somewhat...well, not admirable, but something.

Watched that in real time and couldn't believe there wasn't a word  about it. One very clear strike and one fairly clear. Either could or perhaps should have been red.
Are we just ignoring the initial attempt at a tackle by EC No7 from the outset?

Silly me, I forgot the rule that if your teammate is being fouled you're allowed to start boxing lads in the head.

How long can Kilcoo go on for, they seem like part of the furniture at this stage. Must be on the go 12yrs. Sure that team starting to come to the end of that age group and cycle.  Same with the Monaghan team.

That's true, he was. But there was a lot of that going on over 60 minutes. Turnovers and fumbles. I thought he steadied the side when it was needed and chipped in with a crucial score. Exceptional probably too strong. Influential.

I know Darragh Canavan is held to a high standard but thought he still had a decent game, got a good point and set up another 1-02 , out of the 1-08 Errigal got. Was a good battle with the Kilcoo defence

Quote from: Truthsayer on December 08, 2024, 04:54:45 PMThere you go Tyrone club championship the most competitive in the land. Relegated team Clonoe very near bate Errigal, lost in a replay... Typical Kilcoo cynicism lost them that ..
Clonoe probably should've won the first game. Pomeroy could've won the first round when they were chasing the goal. Killyclogher could've forced the game to a replay only for Harte last kick of the game. Trillick only lost by a point too. People can have their own opinions but I don't think any other championship is close in terms of how close the teams
I'm sure Clonoe and Pomeroy men will be pondering what if all week...

Neither Clonoe or Pomeroy would have won the Tyrone championship but on the day anyone in Tyrone could beat the likes of Errigal which is what makes the Tyrone championship special. We seem to be one of the only counties were the championship is based on league divisions which also makes the league football ultra competitive which guarantees 15 league games (with 5 of them started) that are played like championship games which has left the likes of Coalisland and clonoe being relegated to intermediate.

A foul. Which, I'm sure you know happens regularly and shouldn't really require discussion, The reaction, however is more noteworthy.

Errigal have played 15 competitive league games in Tyrone followed by a knockout county championship where they were close a few times to being knocked out and went on to win Ulster.

 I feel sorry for GAA people from other counties where leagues are practically friendly games and championships that gives the bigger clubs a chance to rest players as they can afford to lose a game and still win it.

I'd love to hear opinions from neighbouring GAA counties on why they don't have a similar system. My own club would play a league game on a Friday night with 1000+ attendance, and the talk of the village all week would be about the next league game. A championship game would have a big attendance with many neutrals with it being a knockout game.

5 games are set aside as starred games (without county men) and if the county get far then the league is put on hold to make sure county men get the chance to play club football for their club, which could be the difference for certain clubs staying in senior football or getting relegated.

Our - Armagh - leagues are linked to the championship also but we have the group stages first. Which, while it guarantees teams 3 games, takes a lot of excitement out of it. I'd prefer the Tyrone model if I'm honest

Honestly don't understand why other counties don't take it serious. I suppose there's no reason to if there's no consequence to finishing last. Don't think there's a championship in the county like it. Would rather watch our championship than the likes of Kilcoo or Scotstown or Ballygunner walking through it every year
