Tyrone County Football and Hurling

[TF15]

The same tactics that lost just one game all year (by a point) and won an Ulster title. Some crying c@nts on here just get a hard on for complaining about Harte even when he's doing a good job. Be careful what you wish for, look at the state of the likes of Armagh now and think of United post SAF. The man will only be truly appreciated when he's gone I doubt.

we won a heap of meaningless games against against div 2 teams and lost the only one that really mattered so cop on. and i think ul find thats why teams fell away like meath post boylan and kerry post mick o dwyer is because those men stayed too long. same with man utd prob but i dont care much for english soccer.

Was the Ulster final meaningless? Were Donegal a Div 2 side? Your attitude to Mickey Harte would strongly suggest that you are heavily influenced by English soccer. When did the GAA become an organisation where we castigate our managers on social media and lead campaigns for them to be sacked? Very much an imported soccer mentality if you ask me.

It's been the best 13 years on record for Tyrone. Regardless of what we think the numbers stack up. After that it's down to personality.
There is nothing to compare Hartes reign to during Hartes reign. You use an example of managers who started 20 years before Harte started while in the mean time there has been a feast of Counties that refreshed their management regularly and achieved nothing. Harte's case is unique.

Is that Liz the hurler who put on an exhibition of her talents in Croke Park? Point stands, we don't have the same talent in our forward line as we did in the 00's. Hartes done very well to cover them deficiencies through a system (albeit dire to watch when faced with s team playing similarly). It does need tweaking to be slightly more attacking but we lost by a point (and really shouldn't have only for bad wides) to a team that took Dublin to the pin of their collars twice.

id say we can disregard the 3 posts above this because they make very little sense. straw clutching and confusing.

2003 to 2010 best ever... little to get excited about since then.

2010 was an All-Ireland that got away from Tyrone along with this year.

Did we win any All Irelands pre Harte? Are you happy to go back to those days?
