Art McCrory RIP
Some man for one man.

Massive loss to Tyrone GAA, A giant of a man that give so much to Tyrone GAA. Lots of love to big Art. RIP.

News from the hill:
Dooher and Logan another 3 year term with the Seniors.
Paul Devlin another 3 year term with the U20s.
Gerry Donnelly another 3 year term with the U17s.

Did Gerry Donnelly not resign at the end of last year? Are we that stuck for coaches he must have been asked to stay on. 

RTE saying they're getting to stay on.

County Board probably have made the decision that's been leaked. The nodding dogs in the county committee will just vote it through unchallenged.

I think if they move on, a Plan B would be needed.

Who is Plan B?

There is no plan B, the sensible approach is to agree a rolling extension and not another 3 year term and start to forward plan. But sense isn't easy found.

Paul Devlin is plan B

If that's the case, I'll stick with what we have.

Any decision made on the fate of the current managment team

Club delegates are meeting tomorrow, I expect a decision will be taken then. Or whatever decision the county board has already made is rubber stamped.

If it was a Fintona club member that was responsible then it's Fintona that will carry the can!! It might be unfair on the wider membership but that's the way the world works.

The thug shouldn't be allowed through any GAA gates again, and hopefully will receive a custodial sentence.

Hearing shocking reports coming out of cookstown tonight. U16 championship game.

What is wrong with people?

I was in no way attaching any blame to cookstown here, just the incident happened in Cookstown. What lunatic carries a knife? Never mind taking it to a youth football match. Credit to those who tried to stop him. 

I pray nobody has any major injuries.

Unbelievable poor tonight. Peter Harte decision making on the ball was awful, turned over a few times when easy scores could have been registered. Is he not allowed to shoot?

The defense in non existent. Hampsey looks lost completely, there is no drive or passion left. Very concerning watching Tyrone capitulating as soon as they are put under pressure

Wonder what they will do with the youngsters as well. Won't play u12 and u11.5

There will be a big change for the tots.

Well done to the County committee last night. It was absolutely the right vote. Just a bit of unknown till it sorts itself out. Short term pain for long term gains!

well I'm saying 15s as it was set in stone in terms of a start date and teams fully preparing for

keeping it may cause less disruption and allow most other even ages to come in..maybe throw in a 14 championship later in year ?

just suggesting

Nothing has been set in stone. Clubs have known this vote has been coming for weeks. It's actually shame on the county board for allowing it to carry on so long without taking the clubs in to have the vote to make plans.

They have been dragging their heels, creating this delay. Maybe there is no appetite for in in Garvaghy or the fact there is no CCC chairperson in place has left them without a decision maker. This delay falls on Sludden

Central Council only confirmed this age grade policy the weekend before last? 9 days ago.

Nobody expected them to allow counties to change before 2024. It's no fault of anyone in Tyrone and you'll see a similar discussion is taking place in all counties

Agree but it's Tyrone who have been pushing for this a number of years (without success) when this change was granted then an emergency meeting should have been called to set the wheels in motion. Armagh have voted this through yesterday, so it's not to difficult if the will is there.

Tyrone have already shown the will is there with the fight they have brought to past Congress's wether the will to implement is there will be seen, or do we let another year go past.

can an accomdation be made.. plough on with the u15s as teams have been out since Xmas and it was due start in 3 weeks, change rest..so maybe u12-15-16-18 ??

You couldn't play u16 and u15 makes zero sense. If it's u16 the u15 panel is boosted by a few additions to take into the league/championship campaign.

Would be brilliant so see an u12 league back. And hopefully more club retention of players having u18s this year. No point wasting a year. Get it done.

Tyrone should follow Armagh tonight and vote to implement the even age groups immediately!! There maybe slight inconvenience but that will allow more boys to play football!! It's a no brainier. If there's a slight inconvenience then so be it.

We should be bringing u18/16/14/12 immediately. Why wait till 2024

Get it done
