Brutal conditions, weatherwise and underfoot at this time of year.

Crazy to be playing so many games - and then some are cancelled and then others go ahead, when they should be cancelled.  Crazy stuff.

Then a lot of low scoring games in a mudbath - crazy stuff altogether.

Come summer, it's the opposite: 1 game then waiting a few weeks for another game.

God love them but  we are so bad its scary . Kerry streets ahead , relegation is the deserving outcome .

It's ok! We've been a good to great team for a decade! Unlike Dublin, It could not go on forever!

Due to complete failure to steward properly, I'd say Tyrone will lose home advantage, at least for the game v Donegal, possibly more if Croke Park have the cojones.
Mainstreet check in with screenexile for the Tyrone fixtures.

On the Tyrone/Dublin incident there will no doubt be some debate on the admissibility of the mobile phone footage. If it is ruled inadmissible then GAA need to seriously get on top of that issue.

The footage would appear to land Hampsey and the lad in the red top in hot water. But who is what other footage exists or whether there was any officials near hand. Presumably if there were any officials within eyeshot of this the the players would have been sent off.

A simple rule that 1 team has to stay on the pitch until the other team and entourage have entirely vacated the tunnel/communal area needs to be rigorously enforced.

The guy who shouts out the gypsy comment clearly needs to seek counselling.

These incidents need to be eradicated. The idea that they are part of the game or the spectacle is plain bollocks. Players agreeing to play the game do not consent to this and it should not be presumed that they do.

Comer out for Galway today. Hamstring.

Had to laugh at O'Se and O'Rourke second guessing what was going on in the shemozzle yet speculating that Dublin love beating Tyrone so there must be dirt between them. Also some ridiculous statement was made about the Dublin players being trapped against a fence lol.

The Hampsey black was for an incident leading up to the tunnel punch-up not caught on camera. He was strolling about the tunnel entrance nonchalantly 'accidentaly' body checking Dublin players running in. The linesman brought this to the ref's attention straight away as the more malicious fighting was going on down the tunnel.

So Hampsey started it?!

Most definitely!!! Not sure what the black card was for?? Deliberate body collide??

There is something really priceless about the mindset of the bitter Derry wans.

Most definitely he says, without even a single shred of evidence to support his rambling nonsense.

Being anti-Tyrone means more to you Derry lads than backing your own county which is very, very sad.

Yes ... I made it up in my head.

Or maybe I was at the game sitting RIGHT ABOVE the tunnel watching Hampsey waiting for the Dubs coming off. He threw the shoulder into one Dublin lad and he just ran on them a few came and when he threw his weight around again it all kicked off but blah blah poor Tyrone!

They were the better team to light but won't count for much in Croke Park come the end of the year the Dubs are hardly too bothered.

Sean Cavanagh reckons Tyrone are to Ulster what Kerry are to Munster or Dublin to Leinster... Tyrone would need to realise there was football before 2003 ::) ::)

Ahhh the old "We had her before yuns" line that Derry wans love to cling to  ;D

Nothing to do with Derry but for Cavanagh to portray Tyrone as the dominant force in Ulster comparing to Dublin and Kerry when Cavan have 39 Ulster's against Tyrones 15 was a particularly hilarious delusion of grandeur!!

Poor stuff in Ballyshannon, even with the conditions. Donegal should be taking better advantage of the wind and Wylie's sin binning.

0-3 to 0-0 after 25

J70

1-5 to 0-2 at half time in Ballyshannon.

Monaghan will have the wind in the second half.

McManus doesn't look fit at all, although the wet, slippy conditions are making it hard to gather any ball that goes in to any forward.

The Ward goal and a couple of fine points from Langan at the end made it a much better scoreline for Donegal.

Second half was far better but Kerry weren't as pushed either . Aos is just the most incredible individual that has ever played for Mayo , he was immense in second half. 

Transition is hard to stomach for us ejits who react with impulse and impatience  . Relegation is a disaster imo cause it will mean we are playing weaker opposition during transition for at least a year when you want these lads playing the top flight in year two of the rebuild. It is what it is though , nowt can be done now .
Walk-in down mchale rd , sun out, summers day , game day . That's all .

galwayman

Meath 1-3 to a point up on our lads.
Obviously we are playing against a strong wind and it's early in the game yet but I feared we would lose this one.
McDaid and Comer didn't start replaces by O Donnell and DArcy - strange you'd replace a scoring threat like Comer with a non-scoring workhorse in DArcy though.

No it wasn't, Cavan have won 1 Ulster in the last 40 years. Tyrone have won 13.

Derry can enjoy the Tier 2 Championship this year in any case.
GAA FUNDING CHEATS CHEAT US ALL

J70

2-12 to 0-8 in Ballyshannon.

Up to five points now with a much superior points difference to Mayo. Point from last two games SHOULD do it.

Black cards ended the game as a contest. Not sure Monaghan were at leaving McBrearty all alone for Beggan to drag him down 25 yards out.
