County board have disgraced themselves twice in the last week. Firstly sacking John Hurson by text because he,s involved in humanitarian work for the Palestinians of Gaza and his face no longer fits. Secondly appealing the result of the U20 semi final, embarrassing behavior, so much for 'Gaelic Tyrone'.

Agreed

Correct, Goals

 

Exactly OG, not sure how they came up with 8 weeks

Maybe had previous offence?

Didn't know the rules accounted for "previous" ??

Can the CCC use these videos doing the rounds to punish players? For example whatever happened to the man that hit mark carson?

Player was suspended for 8 weeks.

Light sentence compared with the sentence Mark Carson is having to go through.

How is he?   What was the injury to the eye?

Didn't post on the game yesturday as I was trying to think it over really.

Postives - Tyrone won, Ritchie Donnelly done rightly - without being superb. Ronan O'Neill answered his critics the best way possible and I thought that McShane stepped up, obviously when it really mattered. Paudie McNulty done well too, I thought it was harsh to take him off actually and I wouldn't have been too positive about him prior. Tyrone also kicked the ball plenty, showing a willingness to get it forward for once. This game will have done Tyrone no harm, they got the fright of their lives yesturday and to be honest - probably should be out of the AI Series with important players now to return. Didn't get punished ultimately by some dreadful finishing - Matty Donnellly missed one towards the end that had me thinking to myself this team is out.

Negatives - Are Tyrone running on empty already? Is Colm Cavanagh unfit or is he finished? I think it's a fair question - he's beginning to be targeted. Meath showed Tyrone absolutely no respect whatsoever (suppose why should they) - teams know we are there to be dumped out - we need another favourable draw next round-I think it would be better to avoid Monaghan/Tipp and losers of Down/Donegal. Discipline/Tackling as mentioned prior was brutal. Thought Meath were tactically better - bringing on the speedsters at the end of the game (normal time) should have had us out and I'd say the ref maybe helped Tyrone over the line.

Still think Tyrone will get to the Super 8's, but that's all she rode for the county unless they stumble across the formula over the next few games.

Was at the game and it's funny how 2 supporters see the same match!
McNulty was very poor in my eyes as was McShane , if you take out the equalising point
Matty was average, although his workrate has improved and Richard was trying hard; a good target man I think.
C Cav isn't 100 fit but boy does he try!  T McCann deserved the red in my eyes, elbow to the ribs was milked obviously in front of the linesman.
Agree about the tackling, but that referee was brutal, against Tyrone in the first half, and basically against logic after that.
Burns is quality, maybe his tackling could be better and a new no.11?
Anyone else think that putting Matty to CHB and Burns to CHF at beginning of extra time was strange-a gamble??  I think it was a good one,  obviously RONeill coming on was better, but he should have been on sooner.

Will be surprised if RON is on the bus home..........

Liverpool midfielder Ovie Ejaria has joined Rangers on a season-long loan after signing a new contract at Anfield

Any more withdrawals from the squad?

Is the flying of the Palestine flag at gaa matches more of a northern thing?

Plenty on show today in Omagh. Didn't see any at the rest of the games.

The Nationalists in the North express their solidarity with a oppressed minority in Palestine.

The Unionists, predictibly enough, express their solidarity with the Israeli occupiers.

Personally, I dont know if inside the ground is the right venue for such demonstrations.

Didn't have an opinion either way until I heard who the boys that brought the flags were. The closest most of them would come to solidarity with the Palestinian people is when they eat their daily Doner kebab bought with a DLA cheque. Most of them couldn't pick out Palestine on a map if they tried.

Pathetic post

Ruairi Sludden has been drafted into the panel accoridng to my source. Skeet has picked up an injury as has Hampsey.
