Barton was made to look like a fool in that incident and has been lucky that not much more has been made of his shameful behaviour.

You could imagine the outcry from the Derry wans if Mickey Harte ran into a melee and pushed an opposition player!!

Sure he doesn't need to do that when he has Horse for the job!

There has been far too much made of most of the incidents recently and we can all be guilty of stirring the pot. Regarding the McCann/Rodgers incident, I have no doubt he went in to empty Rodgers as he was wide open for it, but at the same time it wasn't malicious either.

The Horse is a changed man,has been very calm on the line this year

Very good OakLeaf Gael but still you only comment on the McCann incident and don't mention the Barton episode. You wans are all the same - totally blinkered !!

Mikhailov, I made my comments on the Barton incident at the time in the McKenna Cup thread that he shouldn't have done what he done but that it was no surprise to me. What is to be gained by a manager being up around the endline of the pitch at any stage of a match never mind the middle of a row? It was stupid and he will pay the price for it.

Good to see Tyrone well represented in the UUJ St Marys game today. Frank Burns and Co Grugan both kicking points from play and playing well in a UUJ team packed with established county players. When you consider those two aren't even on the Tyrone panel at the minute its a real testament to the talent we have in the county

Matter of time before Frank Burns is on the senior panel. I for one wouldn't be waiting until under 21s are over I would have him in now.

I agree Frank  get in there asap

Better leave Burns where he is at the minute as u21 will starting shortly and all the players currently in the senior setup will be heading off with them such as Brennan, Fox, McShane and Mulgrew.

Any word on the u21 panel for this year?

We should be pretty strong from 8-15 with McShane, Burns, Kavanagh, McGlone and Brennan added to guys like Daire Gallagher and Mulgrew still all underage but I think I'm right in saying that all our defenders from last year are overage this year?

Is Ruairi Kelly still u21? Surprised he didn't get a senior call up after his year with Trillick.

SHAMROCK CUP U21 TOURNAMENT. .

Tyrone 1-14, Monaghan 0-11.

A sharper, more incisive Tyrone proved too strong in most departments for Monaghan in this tough, hard-hitting and at times niggly contest in Cloghan on Friday evening last the 5th of February, the game switched to the Monaghan venue as Garvaghey was unavailable. Tyrone's ability to defend in numbers, break quickly and recycle the ball effectively left them always holding an edge  with Pat Clarke the referee kept on his toes throughout.
Things did boil over somewhat towards the end of the first half at which stage both sides were reduced to 14 players when the referee, after consulting with his umpires,  dismissed Monaghan's Michael Murnaghan and Tyrone's Fintan McClure on straight red cards following an incident in the Monaghan goalmouth. Tyrone led at half-time by 0-9 to 0-4, Mark Kavanagh and Padraig McAnenley accounting for the bulk of those scores.
In the second-half Monaghan continued to strive for openings and did put some good moves together but they found scores hard to come by against a massed Tyrone defence and at times too, the final ball in was not of the quality required. Just three points separated the sides going into the final 10 minutes but a goal by Sean Fox with four minutes of normal time remaining and a further two points from frees by Mark Kavanagh wrapped it up for the holders. Monaghan finished the game with 13 players following the dismissal of James Mealiff on a second yellow card midway through the second half.

Under 21s recorded another big win today, scoring 7 goals in the process while missing a fair few of their senior players as well. All looking very positive so far.

[omagh_gael]

Who were they playing?

Peter Donnelly has handed in his resignation. It was confirmed in minutes sent out by the county secretary to the clubs. WTF is going on up there?
