McKenna Cup 2024

[ONeill]

How about a few predictions?

Armagh 2-17 Tyrone 0-9

Not joking but yes.

Apparently Armagh have been training 4 times a day 7 days a week and are being fed some kind of animal feed.

Armagh 5-12 Tyrone 0-3

[Fuzzman]

Hard times for Fuzzman.
Two seasons ago shocked at how well Mickey got his team to overachieve getting to the AI semifinal playing crab football. Play it short out from the back and slow crab like sideways short passing up the field leaving our forwards starved of possession.
Strangely I watched my beloved Everton manager do the same last year and again probably over achieved.
Now both persist and are stubborn not to change despite fans uproar.
Maybe its cos I've 4 young kids, maybe it's cos I live miles away in Dublin but for the first time in my life I've zero interest in Tyrone's new season and am dreading the league campaign especially.
Sorry for the doom and gloom but it's what I foresee this year.
Hope I'm wrong but I reckon we're in for another year of negative, defensive, possession style football where forwards get frustrated time and time again. The open attack minded GSA Football that I grew up to love has been ruined by one st all costs shire, that even Kerry now have had to lower themselves to as it wins games.

Jesus Fuzzman, chill the beans. We haven't even kicked a ball yet.

Lol, u getting the cry in early?  Cant see any of that forward line being there come May, and Campbell wont be doing midfield either, not many of that back line will feature either. Very experimental team but hope few new boys get experience of playing against the masters of the Mckenna Cup! Doubt it will be very entertaining,  packed defences and a crap referee, but at least Jamies not playing for mcquillan to book! Tyrone to retain the prestigious competition for the 45th time ir watever! 

[yellowcard]

Why does Harte treat this competition as though it is championship every year? Seems to field his strongest team every year when available, is he letting the students play for their college this year?

[ballela-angel]

Are any of McKenna games being streamed, either audio or video?

Obviously as you know everything - you'll know that Noel Mooney is reffing the game and not Joe McQuillan.

Armagh TV streamed a good few last year so it is a valid question
