And bring yer own fcukin tea this time.

We're well used bringing our own tae and sandwiches to various matches and hanging out the back of the car to consume them.

Those Dubs don't know their born.

Do people search bags in Omagh, Would it be hard to smuggle in a few cans?
Heard them chatting on Newstalk one night and they were saying that whatever chance Tyrone have of beating the Dubs in a semi or final.
There is no way they're gonna beat them twice in the space of a month so Harte would be crazy to go all out and show his "red" hand in this game.

For those who believe, Mickey goes all out to win all games he plays needs to stop taking the man at his word. He's like Jim Gavin in that respect in that what he does is often very different to what he said.
Didn't Jim say last Sat that Roscommon gave them a good challenge.
That's the only hope I have for any team getting Dublin in the semi, is that it will be like the old system where they have come through a few very easy games and are caught cold by a team at a much higher intensity having built up momentum.

Of course all the Dubs want to see teams open up and play a much more expansive style of football like say Cork did but the Dubs will tear most teams apart if you give them that much space and one on one battles. Mannion, O'Callaghan, Costello, Kilkenny and of course Jack the lad would do some damage if left one on one with loads of space in front of them.

Jim Gavin says that about every team no matter if they've beat them by 5 points or 25 points.

Almost a week out and not a single mention of the *Battle of Omagh*TM so far from the media thank God. f**k me but I'm so sick of hearing about that at this stage. Hopefully with this being a dead rubber it'll not be mentioned and the media will be able to finally move on.

Wasn't so much a battle as a pile of Dublin fanny-pad players thinking they're hard men who by roughing up the AI champions on their home turf might act as a springboard to AI success for the Dubs. It didn't work.

Dublin fans want to see open games because they are more enjoyable to watch. Watching Dublin v's Tyrone where they've played defensive hasn't made it too much harder for Dublin to win

Paying defensive against Dublin basically a admission they got better team and players.

A wee Freudian slip there? Just because it's the Dubs? ;)

Playing defensively against dublin is a sign these days that  the opposition team is already beaten before they start and only want to keep the score down. Cork showed that to beat dublin you need to take them on, but didnt have the fitness to keep with then for last 15 min

Donegal have finally ditched their ultra defensive tactics and have shown only themselves and Kerry so far this year look capable of beating dublin.

What?
Cork showed how to beat Dublin... they lost heavily.
Kerry & Donegal have showed fcuk all in relation to Dublin.


+1 (thank you)

Kerry and Donegal showed that with two sh1te defenses and two decent forward lines you can have an entertaining game.
