Yes huge questions marks over Canavan's coaching and tactical awareness. Very negative boring gameplan and poor decisions during games. Players were treated really well but performances on pitch were poor. Pete McGrath has unexpectedly for many really improved Fermanagh and is getting great credit.

No Fermanagh supporter I know would let Canavan back near a Fermanagh team again if he did the job for nothing. I think that says it all. Tyrone U21s should beat Fermanagh out the gate.

A similar management strategy was tried 2 years ago with the u21s!!  Didn't Philip Jordan and Brian Dooher help Raymond Munroe.  That didn't work out to well but perhaps Donnelly may be more open minded than what Munroe is rumoured to be.

Similar thing tried with u21s yes but my guy feeling is this is a better strategy. Ricey and Brian have more coaching experience and reports suggest they will be taking charge in 2016.

Your naivety is laughable NDA. You reckon the county board has a strategy? They aren't even aware that these men were being asked. Papering over the cracks.

You seem to know a lot. Maybe too much? My guess is your a dissenting voice in county board circles that was kept out of the loop then.
I'm no county board fan but this for a change is a first class piece of work.

Very positive to hear Ricey and Brian McGuigan are being groomed as future county managers. Unusually well thought out approach for Tyrone County Board rather than usual haphazard stuff. These 2 boys have a lot to offer. Great news for Tyrone football.

NDA it sounds like you might pull your sponsorship of teamtalkmag website.

Lol no I will continue with same deal. They have my support.

At the end of the day Teamtalk is an entirely independent effort from a few individuals. If they want to include a gossip column sure why not? Id hazard a guess that the desire for website hits, and/or to be the first to break the news got the better of them & they spoke too soon. No harm done though as it was clearly stipulated in their article that it was an unconfirmed rumour

I think Teamtalk in general are very good, recently though since Tyrone defeat I think they have been a bit too tabloid in their approach. Can see Mickey Harte taking exception and wouldn't really blame him.

Surely Harte wouldn't want another fallout with another media outlet?

Hopefully not. Teamtalk I think need to take a bit more care and stay away from gossip and agendas.

Are you serious? Lets leave the official propaganda machine to the county board website & leave teamtalk the way it is... Christ!

Teamtalk published a rumour that had absolutely no basis in reality. They were probably misled by someone with an agenda against Mickey Harte. So yes I am serious they need to be careful what they publish and should have done more research before putting on website.

Mark Harte story not true. Bit of a kick in the teeth for the credibility of Teamtalk.

They did state them as rumours though- gossip column as such.

Can see Teamtalk getting the RTE treatment. Thought that show they did after Tyrone defeat had an agenda.

IMO Teamtalk shouldn't publish rumours or gossip just report on games and facts.

Seemed a little to suspect. Wonder why the county board hasn't denied it yet.

County Board PRO has officially denied it

Is Eoin McCusker fit to play for Dromore this weekend?

Omagh v Ardboe Final. And I fancy Omagh to win as I believe they have the strongest team. Doesn't always work like that of course as other contenders may have an advantage in terms of championship know how.
Trillick for Inter and Rock for Junior.

Lot of informed talk that Peter Donnelly is joining Tyrone set up and will be announced soon. Would be a very positive development.
Regarding club football big numbers of reserve games not being played with teams conceding and not fielding. Also seen a lot of U16 teams not fielding on Monday evening. Does this reflect an apathy from players and clubs?
Standard of club football is quite poor in Tyrone and has dropped in recent years IMO.
