Tyrone County Football and Hurling

can it be done playing the way we do now?

can it be done playing the way we do now?

Not the way we played in the last few league games but last year I genuinely thought we had developed a balance between attack and defence in the early stages of the championship but we didn't bring that to the bigger games and seemingly have not evolved the attacking aspect of the game plan this year as I was expecting. However, we were only a kick if the ball from an AI final.

The question is can it be done playing an attacking style? I don't think we have the scoring forwards for a gun fight v Kerry or Dublin.

Are we happy to forsake a game plan that has kept us reasonably competitive relative to other big counties to go against the grain, come up with a different style, risk a few years in the wilderness and hope that we make it back?

[southtyronegael]

dont forget we only played well against the div 2 teams last year. we stuggled  last year and this year against the better teams which shows the limitations of our gameplan. and why would we not be able to go toe to toe with the other big counties?

IMO there is not many on here that are involved with their club or even played for them.

I think a good summer for Tyrone perhaps All Ireland Semi final...with a wee bit more attacking brand off football...not gung ho attack as i dont think we have the players...will get Mickey another year at the helm....

I think its very important that the personal attacks on players stop on this forum. If you have a gripe with Mickey then that's fine, he's the manager, he has put himself in the position for that kind of publicity. But to constantly name Aidan McCrory here in such a negative manner is wrong. Aidan is training as hard as any of the rest of the players it is not his fault that Mickey is picking him. You will not get as hard a worker for club and county so it is only fair to him and his friends and family that his name not be dragged through the mud as the reason for boys quitting the panel.End of rant

Agree with this whilst McCrory is not my favourite player he does whatever is asked off him. He would have give me a good roasting in my day I'd say and I would say the majority on talking here wouldn't have got a kick either!

[Helpline]

Have to agree with the majority of the recent posts here, the players are't the problem with the Tyrone county team at the minute its the team structure, style of play and the negative attitude filtering down into the young fella's mindsets. Need to let our good skillful bunch of lads we currently have develop naturally and not constantly restrict there natural ability. For example why in the league did we have small forwards going up to collect short kick-outs from the keeper and getting mauled before they hit the opponents 45m line. Don't remember Mugsey or wee Peter having to play this way.I can see another frustrating year coming up.

Sean have you ever played football at any decent level?
You always seem able to criticise everyone who doesn't agree with you on here. Don't seem like much of a team player to me

[southtyronegael]

So people who haven't played football at a high level don't know football? I happen to know men who never kicked a ball but their football knowledge is second to none. I'm one of them.lol
