I see they have a fundraiser currently on going, must be to fund there next appeal.

Trying to make up the costs of the current appeal!!

Great knowing now that when you want to break the rules all you have to do is not record games...

Tyrone county board getting a lot of criticism, Coverage was brilliant tbf and its a service we never has years ago but now everyone wants to complain about it, if you dont want tit then jst done buy it and tough shit, go to the game or follow it online..But yes u16 should have been free.

And the point no one is getting Tyrone have a holiday to Florida to pay for in December to pay for including huge spending money which was requested by the players for every players and couple, so ease off them a bit, they literally are throwing out hundreds of thousands here and the Gaa HQ did not give as much towards it as they usually do

Agreed. Although, their league position of last isn't a true reflection of their team. I'd say they're better than Galbally, Eglish , derrylaughan etc

Id disagree, they have played 4 games now including the championship, how many games have they won?

From reading the paper this morn I was surprised to see that Packie McConnell never won an All Star not to mention never even been nominated for one.  Crazy considering the save that basically won them the All ireland in 08. 

He only played the final that year. John Devine had a bereavement so didn't play.

On another note, what do people make of Paddy Tally going to work with Kerry?

Is Tally based in Galbally or Belfast?

You'd need to be getting 50k+ a year to make that in anyways tolerable with the amount of commuting and work involved. It would be a minimum 10 hr round trip to go down to Kerry and back.

Must be serious money involved for Tally to take it? Is he going to pack the lecturing in for a year? You'd imagine he will have to.

Could be lecturing from home maybe?

Brilliant move for him, would be great to get him back to a Tyrone set up again, a legend in the county!

Hearing Mattie Donnelly heading to Ulster Clinic for a knee scan, obv the knee isnt right and likly some damage done and be very surprised if he if back for the next game but then again I woudnt be surprised if this man lined out for his club in 2 weeks, cud be thrown into edge of the square

Some decent & strange results last night -
Errigal hammering Fianna, by a big scoreline
Dromore drawing in lough shore. Have DKB got new management in place yet. That could be the reason, new voice always gets a bounce
Omagh defeating high flying Moy, or at least they were high flying
Pomeroy losing heavily in Donaghmore who had 14 men for a lot of the game and were missing men due to isolation.
Eglish keep their winning run going
Carmen going strong, not easy to win in the Clarke's

Season on hold if Tyrone win today and results will get back to normal on the return of the county lads - some clubs need a big finish to the season to stay up

Donaghmore men were full out bar Niall Mckenna who's injured. They're a very good team who are only going to get better. We're now in big trouble. Looking like relegation for us unless we win 6 out of our last 8 games.

Donaghmore have a man on the county panel also who wudnt have been playing. Hit with Covid last wk also, I wud be very surprised if they werent missing 1 or 2 with this also

There's been a bit of discussion in recent days and weeks about the quality of footballer in Tyrone and about players currently outside the county panel not there. So what would a best XV of players currently not on the county panel look like, obviously guys like Colm Cavanagh who has ended his county career I wouldn't include and the likes of Kane and McNally are probably too old now to make an effective contribution at intercounty level

Mine would be:

1. Grimes (Killyclogher)
2. E Murray (Tattyreagh)
3. Teague (Dromore)
4. C Shields (Clogher)
5. C Byrne (Eglish)
6. J Munroe (Carrickmore)
7. McKearney (Dungannon)
8. Nugent (Galbally)
9. McNulty (Dungannon)
10. M Walsh (Dungannon)
11. P Donaghy (Dungannon)
12. R Sludden (Dromore)
13. L Brennan (Trillick)
14. R Coleman (Moy)
15. C McAliskey (Clonoe)

We do seem to have some really good inside forward options throughout the county - the likes of Quinn, Jordan and Conroy were u20 this, Sean Og McAleer last year and then others like Danny McNulty and possibly a few more not entering my head at present.

I've probably missed a few obvious choices but I think you arguabl say that the FF line there and the midfield were better options than what started against Donegal last weekend.

Good discussion this but the best player in Tyrone club football is Mackers!!!

The thing about getting rid of Harte, is there an outstanding candidate available? I don't really see anything inside the county at present that I would look as a marked improvement on Harte. I think a lot of our underage teams in recent years have underachieved and no club manager has been able to do back to backs in Tyrone to make them a viable candidate.

Canavan has that x factor but he has a nice little gig going as it is and I really don't think he'd be interested. He hasn't really managed anyone of note since Fermanagh anyway?

Would we hire an outsider? Malachy O'Rourke did a great job with Monaghan and I think he'd do well with Tyrone but I don't see him bringing the swashbuckling football some seem to think we should be playing. I couldn't see McGuinness taking the job or the Tyrone Co Board affording him but I think he could work wonders with this bunch of players.
Anything to be said for Fergal Logan and his team from the U21 All Ireland winners of 2015 of Canavan and Dooher, even adding someone like Collie Holmes as well?
Majority of that panel have been brought through (potentially could even get Brennan, McNulty, Mullan back involved) and are being backboned by the last 2 U20 teams as well as still having the last few years of Mattie, McNammee and Harte, a new voice could make a big difference to what will still be an impressive panel in 2021.

Harte has done Tyrone enormous service. I think overall he deserves credit for how he has kept Tyrone at the top table in that last decade despite not winning an AI but I think we are now back reaching a talent level that should have us pushing for an AI and things seem to have gone a little stale.

When we have a full contingent available we have a team now capable of winning an All Ireland with McKenna back.

Logan is an option but has he managed anyone since stepping away from the u21s. Would Canavan leave his Sky gig to take up a role?

Midfield is a concern but as someone said earlier, I'd rather we went with actual midfielders than moving forwards and defenders out there. Kilpatrick and Kennedy are raw and unproven but as well let them at it and see how they get on. I'd worry about R Donnelly's pace in midfield but he's a very good footballer and won't get pushed about so I think we should go with him and one of Kennedy/Kilpatrick if they are available.

Our defensive shape is a big worry, we don't seem to have any player tasked with shoring up the middle of the defence, if teams run at us we part like the red sea. We need a designated 6, some players that's going to hold that central channel and organise the defence and make sure teams can't just run through us.

I think the panel needs a bit of upheavel at this point. Too many players there who have had enough time to prove themselves like Ronan O'Neill and Conall McCann, nothing against the lads but they haven't been good enough and it's time to give new players the chance.

Should any of the u20s start next week? Would Canavan be worth a 20 minute cameo?

Niall Morgan
Liam Rafferty Ronan McNamee Padraig Hampsey/Rory Brennan
Michael Cassidy Hampsey/Brennan Frank Burns
Richie Donnelly Conn Kilpatrick
Mattie Donnelly Mark Bradley Kieran McGeary
Darren McCurry Conor McKenna Peter Harte

Probably too ambitious to see Tyrone lining up like that but shows the potential of an excellent team is there. Bradley and McCurry have played their best football for Tyrone coming from the half forward line so having them two play off Peter Harte and Conor McKenna as the vocal points has plenty of potential. Certainly a lot better than pushing defenders and midfielders into make shift forwards.
Think Hampsey and Brennan are our only real options at 6, would probably prefer Brennan at 6 with Hamspey man marking.
Looking at the Tyrone bench yesterday and it looks very stale. Makes me think they should call up the Tyrone U20's (Lorcan Quinn, Antoin Fox, Murnaghan, Canavan, Tiernan Quinn, Ethan Jordan, Oguz) to the panel and have the likes of Conor Quinn involved in the match day panel over Aidan McCrory for example, bit of freshness if nothing else.

Good team, crucial we bring 1 or 2 DGN men in!
Have them in around the panel even, they are born winners this year and will only raise the training quality, McKerney and Donaghy deserve to be there and Paudi if he wants to go back!!

As for McKenna, he has to stay close to goal imo, you cud see out at 11 he wasn't getting involved and linkn up although with his brain this will come, just not this season as he needs games, he touched the ball 13 times the whole 70 mins and yet scored 1-2 and set up 1-1 I think, play him inside close to goals because he will win ball and turn and burn his man!

Anyone see the clown on Facebook writing about extra curricular incidents in games in Tyrone?

Acting as if he's the high courts prosecutor.

Don't know what he's trying to achieve.

Isnt it obvious what he's tryin to achieve, he's tryin to make people accountable and promote awareness on all the disgraceful incidents that are happening in Gaa games ie in recent times all the broken jaws that have happened in the past few week!!

I seen someone write that you get more of a suspension for pushing a ref than breaking some ones jaw with a dirty punch

1.   Niall Morgan Edendork
2.   Ricey Dromore
3.   Cormac McAnallen Eglish

5.   Peter Harte Errigal
6.   Block Gormley Carrickmore

12.   Brian Dooher Clann Na Gael
13.   Peter Canavan Killyclogher Hurlers
14.   Frank McGuigan Ardboe
15.   Iggy Jones Dungannon

Players of note:
Had to drop Philly Jordan which meant I had to play Petey in there who I consider a weaker player but Impossible to leave out Sean Cavanagh on any team, on his day for he was the best in Ireland and will go down as one of the best ever! Anyone that's leaves him out hasn't a clue and needs their head checked!
Toss of a coin between Dooher and Stevie but went with Dooher because I hada fill the half forward line and the fact Dooher was the leader of the team that won the All Irelands and don't think I ever saw him play poorly!
I think Mattie has to make it also,2 all stars, Captained us to All Ireland final! He's one of few men who cud have possibly gotten on some of the winning teams in the 2000's! Another discussion another day perhaps on what current players wud have gotten on some of them teams that won the All Ireland!
Iggy Jones – Don't know much about himas in never saw him play but from what I hear he cant be left out

Two from Errigal? Suppose it's a big enough parish  ;D
However, if you're including Iggy Jones having never saw him play you'd have to include Frankie Donnelly as well.

Aww shit, dam this is hard, updated there now sure :P

Not much talk of the fixtures given the outrage at how long it took for them to be released.  Few interesting first round fixtures in D1;

Round 1      
Killyclogher   v   Dromore
Ardboe   v   Dungannon
Loughmacrory   v   Pomeroy
Donaghmore   v   Omagh
An Charraig Mhor   v   Galbally
Errigal Ciaran   v   Clonoe
Coalisland   v   Derrylaughan
Moy   v   Trillick

Killyclogher   v   Dromore
Ardboe   v   Dungannon
Loughmacrory   v   Pomeroy
Donaghmore   v   Omagh
An Charraig Mhor   v   Galbally
Errigal Ciaran   v   Clonoe
Coalisland   v   Derrylaughan
Moy   v   Trillick

Predictions for the opener

the Trillick hater returns, I saw someone commenting on this before and you denied your anti Trillick, so I had a look at some of your previous comments, let me run you through them:

1.You tipped Dromore to beat them and said Trillick wudnt be close to them..
2.Errigal bate them in the league and you said its a sign of thing to come if they meet again in the championship
3.Said to put money on clonoe to beat them in quarters and wud be a massive upset if trillick win..
4. said to lump money on fianna come semi final stage as they where too fast and too strong for Trillick..
5. said Trillick filled with hot air..
6. said Trillick is overrated and no one is far off them..
7. Immediately tipped Galbally to beat them..
8. Tipping Moy to beat them 1st league game..

Maybe tip 7 & 8 cud turn out to be right but your previous history doesn't bide too well.

I wish you all the best against Omagh this year young friend..

Wow some researching back through the pages to write that up  :P

It was good reading, he has quite the opinion on a lot of clubs and topics

Ant big performances from the U20's at the wkend?
How'd baby Jesus play??
Will Jordan be fit to make a mark at club level and maybe even be a future County player?
