McKenna Cup 2024

[nrico2006]

Harte started 7 or 8 established county players and brought on a few more ,  Probably the same as Down .

Mickey Harte called on 11 of the all-ireland winning side according to RTE, of Down's 15+ yesterday about 9 played championship football last year (open to correction)

[lfdown2]

yes apologies it wasnt 11 that i can see, it was just the 10 that played at some stage in both games,

look dont get me wrong i think we all know that its little more than a friendly and tyrone were only back from the states, it wasnt the biggest of achievements but for you to get so worked up about it, well if it was the other way round i wouldnt be worrying to much!

This guy had a very good game yesterday, kept Ryan mellon well busy, hit 2 clinking points as well.  Looks like a championship player to me.  what club is he from?

Took some abuse from Down posters last year, did he have a good league for Shamrocks or why the change?

He didn't really take abuse, the management did, and it was more due to the fact he had only just got back from america, and was drafted straight into the panel without playing much for the club or anything, just seemed a bit desperate from the management...

Mickey OUT!

I would urge Tyrone fan s not to panic. 

Too late!

[charlie linkbox]

Can someone tell me whether the Monaghan vs. Down game is at 7.30pm or 8pm tomorrow night?

The Ulster GAA website says 7.30pm but the Monaghan one says 8pm.

7.30pm seems more likely I would have thought.

[Sandy Hill]

I would urge Tyrone fan s not to panic. 

I would urge Armagh fans not to get excited.

Mickey OUT!

rrhf, of course it is time to panic.....we are bottom of section B.....we have the worst scoring average in the whole competition....ricey, dooher, mccullagh, gormley and mcguigan have all retired.....sean cavanagh no longer wants to play midfield or attack....we are fecked altogether.....the end is nigh.

All Wednesday games have a 7.30pm throw-in.  I am hearing reports that Tyrone may not be fielding for reasons already stated.

Newry Shamrocks, went to Blackburn to play soccer when he was younger, didn't work out, was in america for a while as well, then back last year...

Aye right thats why he was so good then, he was playing on his home patch, distinct advantage over everyone else 

He went over to University in Daytona, Florida on a soccer scholarship and played semi-professional there for 4 years.  He graduated last summer and came home.
