Tyrone / Re: Tyrone County Football and Hurling

McGuinness would be a great choice, obviously. But I don't think realistic. Malachy O'Rourke would have been another but looks like he's out of the picture too.

I actually think Tyrone would go outside, if someone outstanding came along depending on the circumstances etc. It would make sense really since the nature of our club competition means nobody ever gets the chance to put together that CV that would really be needed to get the public on board inside Tyrone. Maybe an outsider is actually needed. Someone like Stephen Rochford has all the credentials and the finger on the pulse of the county game being with Donegal currently.

The current underage managers do nothing for me, would be very underwhelming. Tyrone need a lift. That also includes a Mark Harte/Gavin Devlin ticket and Peter Canavan himself - who won't get involved now the son is there anyway.

FWIW I think Harte is with Tyrone until he's had enough, which doesn't look like being anytime soon. He'll argue with McShane and McKenna next year he has the firepower for first time in a number of years to go for it. Does he deserve that chance....?

What a year for errigal ciaran.

Asses handed to them by dungannon who they looked down their noses at.

Now their 2nd most famous celebrity Micky the Dictator gets the proverbial managers' guillotine in the morning

Not sure what Conway is on, but he would do well to try and slip in the background and not draw attention to himself after last night.

Its a pity Malachy O rourke took the Glen job. Could have been a decent replacement. Ah well, we'll have to make do with Banty i suppose...

I would imagine we can take that then as Gospel Mickey is staying.

McKenna was well shackled today too. Donegal were ready for him.

Lads need a bit of help from the techies here. Not actually for myself...but hopefully someone can help with past experience.

New TV purchased, picks up all RTE channels including HD and +1 (more than my own actual tv). Picks up TV Guide, what is on etc. RTE worked fine on the prior TV it was just a bit small.

But when you go to watch it says "Video not supported". We are in the North here. No RTE issue prior whatsoever to this.

Basic digital and analogue scan performed, no boxes involved.

Anyone any ideas?

Have to disagree on this one Angelo, McKernan isn't even on Brennan level as a marker or even physically. It might be one of the Pomeroy boys who get much abuse on here for the job.

I could only see Murphy ragdolling McKernan. There will be large parts of the game Murphy drifts around unmarked anyway I suppose, it will be when he makes his little 5 minute spells into 14 presumably McNamee will be switching to him.

The biggest concern I would say was until Salah's blatent dive, there wasn't a shot on target.

Surely he's in no position to play having not trained all week.
Would mckenna on Murphy be out of the question. He'd have the legs on Murphy when we would be on the attack. Presumably we will have 14 inside our own half anyway at all times

We need to have Donegal worrying about McKenna rather than sacrificing him for Murphy.

I really think it would be a huge risk to start Hampsey. I think McKernan might be the best man,  give him the responsibility to follow him. He has the legs on Murphy out the pitch so it suits us if he goes out there.

McNamee is sure to pick up McBrearty.

Michael Murphy would throw McKernan around like a child for fun. Complete physical mismatch.

Last couple of minutes of this interview means I hope Chisora gets knocks out tomorrow night

I think Chisora wins pretty handy (in light of my Lomachenko prediction a few weekends ago).

You'll get your wish now  ;)

;D (That wasn't a serious comment).

A boy was saying yesterday gyms are adhering well to things until students come in and nothing is getting cleaned down at all. (belfast city centre). I would say it should be same as anything and if people aren't sticking to rules they should be turfed out.

That would be fair enough common sense approach to everything, including bars / resturants.

There is a lot in this. Seems somewhat strange it's been recorded as a Covid case.

Rushmere shopping centre has been packed this week. No point closing the schools when everyone is going about their business.

Is this a serious point?

What do you want them to do? People are allowed to go to shops.

If they are all wearing masks (even the makeshift ones that offer little to no protection) they are doing no harm.

It's a very serious point. The children that I teach aren't allowed in school but they're allowed to go to the shopping centre and walk around the shops. Surely you see how stupid that is.

They still aren't doing anything wrong, as long as they do the mask and sanitisation. I don't see what the problem is. Christ almighty they are kids.

Your problem is a legislative one. They are allowed into shops. There's nothing stupid about it, just because you don't like it doesn't mean they are in the wrong.
