Beware Omagh-they will be unloading the extra friends, flags  and cuddly toys for the semi final. Heaven help Dromore/Ardboe. Imagine the crescendo and outpourings of fanmania from the St Enda's facebook site if they make the final

Big pressure on the Omagh supporters this week again. They had to bring 3 friends the last day. Cue some slightly embarrassed loners sidling into the main stand. Setting the standard even higher this week as they are asked to bring 3 friends and a flag. Word has it that if they make the semi final it's going to be 3 friends, a flag and a cuddly toy

Have to say the referee had a shocker today. Gave a free in for Dublin for Kerry defender touching the ball on the ground when it should have been a penalty.

I didn't see the game, only heard it on the radio, but did the Kerry defender in question touch the ball in the small rectangle or outside it but in the large rectangle? If it's the former, then it's a penalty, if it's the latter, it's a 13 metre free.

You above all, Fintona, should know if I wrote it should have been a penalty then the incident took place in the small parallelogram!!

Rooney would have been kicking himself had United not got the three points
As for Torres doing the Ronnie Rosenthal impersonation? Hysterical

fair dues to DKB today, two poor teams to be honest as in the grand scale of things, but from what i can see bar the odd older player on each side, two very young teams, so maybe if they can keep senior status for 2 years or so,(i know DKB are safe this year & moortown in a play-off) but if they both can, maybe theres good times ahead....Heard that the row at the end was due to paddy Gervin, by all accounts he's a hard man to like, by my sources anyway, im sure people will disagree with that, but just putting it out there!

If you don't know him personally what was the point in even saying that.

i would say it started because moortown couldnt take their beatin like in the last 5-6 mins they resorted back to their rugby style tactics and when damien crozier hit colm robinson in the face he deserved to walk what was he arguing with ampire about after that and as far as paddy gervin goes i know him personally and he does not deserve some tool come on here spouting drivel about him paddy is a hard working member for derrylaughan right through the youth system and how as a helping hand with the seniors maybe a bit of respect for the man especially as you dont even know him maybe an idea would be to go to your own club and take a leaf out of his book with the work he does would suit u better.

You must be one hell of a fit wing half back. One full stop at the end of that rant. Class act!

Think he got word that Jason Mc Ateer was in Gills and he wanted to have a beer with him

Have to say the referee had a shocker today. Gave a free in for Dublin for Kerry defender touching the ball on the ground when it should have been a penalty. He missed McMenamin's double bounce on the 45m line on front of Dublin goals with 2 mins left. Just what does a player have to do to get lined in an All Ireland Final these days with Ger Brennan doing a mighty fine impersonation of Tadhg Kennelly a couple of years ago. Did the occasion get to McQuillan?

[several Drumragh players coming off injured in a league game as well.]

Back in the late 90's a Fintona player was successfully sued by an opponent who had his jaw broken by him in a tournament in Eskra. I know the Fintona guy in question and it was quite out of character for him, but he learned that there was a price to pay for his actions as the man he struck had to take time off work with loss of earnings. There's something in the back of my mind about a Beragh player taking a court case on in similar circumstances a few years later, not to mention a case of several Drumragh players coming off injured in a league game as well.

By several you actually mean two

This school of thought belongs in the last millennium. This is the 21st century and thuggery and assaults which would lead one to a trip up the courthouse steps if they took place on the street, shouldn't be classed as 'part of the game'.

Looks like it's not just the Omagh players who are under pressure to perform tomorrow night. According to their facebook page the supporters have to bring 3 friends along with them.

Easy to blame the referee but there's not much he can do when two teams are intent on playing as little football as possible. This is a sad indictment of club championship football in Tyrone and there will be very little football played in the remainder of the senior cship. A pure slugfest with the team coming out on top as the one who invariably get away with the most

I see in teamtalk mag Errigal are the favourites for the reserve chmpionship now. A good team some great young players on it but is it warranted several great teams still in with a shout

I've heard it all now- 'great' reserve teams in Tyrone club football

[group stage:]

Well done Stewartstown today winning the Og sport - magnificent achievement.

thanks orangeman, it was brilliant to beat the best of ulster at maghera today 

the results were:

group stage:

harps 5-8 slaughtneil (derry) 0-5
harps 4-2 newry shamrocks (down) 1-2


semi:
harps 1-10 newry shamrocks 2-6 aet.

newry were in semis as best runners up and this game was actually level at the end of extra time as well. both teams were then told that the next score would win. thankfully we got it!

final:
harps 4-11 donaghmoyne (monaghan) 1-6.

na rossa of donegal won the plate section.

does anyone know what teams from tyrone have won the ulster og sport? i remember donaghmore winning it in 1989 but there must be more?

Omagh won it in  2007 and Naomh Mhuire in 2008 and 2009 afaik

Carmen won it in 1986

Was it not 1985 that they won it?

Am hearing that Kileeshil have won the Div 3 league. Brackaville didn't make play-offs as they lost by 7 points at home to Drumragh

[EC/Clonoe - Possibility of being a great game in an otherwise dull league weekend. EC hurting and dangerous and clonoe will be determined to keep winning, clonoe by 3.]

Gonna have a lash at predicting a few results - based on my previous form I certainly wouldnt put money on it though!

Derryloughen/Eglish - Derryloughen as eglish have nothing really to play for and too important for dloughen
Dromore/Donaghmore - Dromore comfortably to keep a good role going
EC/Clonoe - Possibility of being a great game in an otherwise dull league weekend. EC hurting and dangerous and clonoe will be determined to keep winning, clonoe by 3.G'Castle/Ardboe - Repeat of cship and im guessing on a repeat of the result.
KClogher/Moortown - Same as the top fixture with Moortown having most to play for. Fancy the st malachys to win this one.
Moy/Carrickmore - Moy need the points desperately but Carrickmore are in a winning way that they wont want to end. Unfortunate for Moy the way the fixtures have went. Carmen by quite a bit.
Omagh/Coalisland - Total damp squib, both teams would be foolish to show anything before their next big meeting, fancy Omagh to put more emhasis on it so them to win the battle but not necessarily the war.
Trillick/Cookstown - Both these teams could be doing with the 2 points for different reasons. Still fancy Trillick to secure the points with a narrow win.

Ill wait to after sat and have a go at Cship games if I dont embarrass myself completely with these.

Dont think the game is going ahead

Fancy st malachy's to beat killyclogher? The result has already been sorted. I wonder will it be played at all. The loughshore clubs have some 'interesting' history when it comes to results against killyclogher.

Very good- I wonder would you be referring to the virtual game Killyclogher won a few years back
