Only go on what a colleague told me. Your account is fairly biased, sweeping over the booting of a man on the deck and punching someone from behind which are cowardly actions I think in anyone's book?  My account probably has a hint of that too because I heard it from someone from Errigal. But and the big but here is... the end of your statement is a bit of bollock5 really when they won the game after being a point down before the fracas occurred. Couldn't give much of a toss either way, just seemed to be very one sided account on here and it didn't sit well with me so I contributed some of the information being left out. We can all talk about certain clubs etc and their behaviour but let's be honest, in general the behaviour at club level leaves a lot to be desired. I guess it's the parochial nature of our sport and the fact in Division 1 there is a lot of clubs who wouldn't have the most time for each other, especially amongst the top 5-6 clubs.

Heard that an Errigal man connected to the Tyrone boss ran on alright. Also heard Hampsey's younger brother ran on, kicked a man on the ground and sped off out of the pitch. Also the blow that knocked Harte out was as dirty as you'll get, from behind as the dust had settled and cards had been issued. Harte can handle himself as has been said above and thank heavens he can because not a player in club football in Tyrone gets the treatment he does. Hope the suspected broken jaw is just rumours as he's one of the central components if our seniors are to do anything next year. Is it the same in other counties where County men get 'treatment'? For we have to be as bad if not the worst county in Ireland for it.

On Dungannon v Trillick, McNulty is certainly worth a run in the McKenna cup and I'd like to get another look at Quinn. Surely MH could mould such a big strong lad into a real option at FF. Maybe not a starter but an impact sub. Not sure Richie Don will cut it at midfield at inter county. Maybe try him at half forward? Worth a chance anyway, not like we're coming down with talents coming through.

Carmen now have lost their last 4 county finals, tough on their players and support. 5 different winners in the last 5 years also, Tyrone championship could well be the most competitive in Ireland.

Errigal seniors are registered to play in the Kilamacud 7a and their thirds in the St Jude's 7s. Clan na nGael wouldn't move the game.

It'll disappoint me when the Scots bottle it and a 'No Vote' wins. Media stoking it up closer than it is as it makes good TV.

Raised the bar??? They didn't win an Ulster title ffs. Omagh, Fianna and Errigal have all done that in the last 10 years. Good wee team but that comment was way off. There would be worse ideas than bringing Raymond Munroe back. Suits U18 management and has a proven track record.

Just don't put the mortgage on that info about Mark Harte joining the set up boys as you may lose the house! Absolute non-story.

Exactly! But why can't this group get over the line? Just not the quality or is it something psychological?

Conor Gormley referees every game he plays in himself. How it continues to happen where he talks a ref through a game and gets away with fouls and elbows etc. Few refs have the balls to tell him to shut his mouth and send him off. Glad Carmen won as it will make for a better Semi final but its all well and good Carrickmore getting consistently to Semi Finals or Finals but they haven't won the thing since 2005. Haven't got over the line when it absolutely counts!

Dorris hit Harte twice before he retaliated. 100% spot on there! If I was Cassidy I would try something new, could maybe win another county with this group but they're not going to attain the Ulster they so badly desire unfortunately.

If skinno gets it I give up! Don't know whether to laugh or cry. Whole shows sideways.

Honestly knew this team wasn't great but our next crop of lads aren't good enough or near it. Old guard kept the thing respectable. Mickey should probably move on but to be honest the quality isn't there. It shows how far we have fallen that - no offence intended - this Armagh side comfortably beat us. Getting sick of these young lads getting chance after chance and putting in nothing performances. Gormley came on and within 2 minutes a man hanging of him got a elbow thrown back while he was on the ball putting the fella down. That mentality not to be bullied isn't in these lads. They all put in serious training and give up so much for our enjoyment but I think too many really are too happy to be county players and have not a hint of nastiness. Fcuk that! It's about winning. Who isn't on the panel that would make that big a difference? That's the scary thing for me. Conor McKenna going to Oz is a nightmare too if he stays out there. He's the only real top drawer player I see coming through and could be with Donnelly and Harte our driving force in the next 5 years. Well done to Armagh. Enjoy it as you've had to put up with many bad days of late!

I agree on the ref. Worst display of inconsistency I have seen in quite some time. Why bother getting annoyed, it'll never change.

RON has nowhere near the engine to play wing half forward at this level. Perhaps 11 but even then would he be able to track the runs of the likes of Colm Boyle or Karl Lacey. I really like him as a player and at club level he is phenomenal so hope it happens for him. I think corner forward coming out to the D is his best position atm. Emmett McKenna is there for his athleticism. I'll be honest, he's never impressed me but I'm willing to give him the chance as he supposedly is showing up very strongly in training. Richie Donnelly wouldn't have the pace for wing forward. Tbh I think the defenders we have are probably the best we have. They're just not top, top level. Sad to say but its just the truth! Losing McCarron was a big blow in fairness but even then we haven't had a full back flying for a few games back to back since Justy in 08. Not overly confident but think we'll have enough to come through but its quarters at best with this side unless something transforms over the players.

Give 3 names of guys you think would improve the county board Hugh? Who should be Tyrone manager at senior, u21 and minor level? And what is the best 15 in Tyrone. Maybe you are right, I'd love to hear your views. You're shouting has certainly got my attention, you have the stage, impress me!

Rahilly's will win the reserve final tonight by 2-3 points! Only using the one sub is crucial.

Emm... Healyhellraiser... was the best player on the pitch v Down in the replay and against Louth. Neither of them games were on the oul TV so ye probably didn't see it. The biggest problem with Harte being out is we lose our best foot passer of a ball in the side which will add to the problem of getting ball into the full forward line. I'd put PJ Lavery into the half back line or put McGinley there and put PJ or Mark Donnelly half forward. Pace will expose Armagh.
