well lets sit back and watch ireland do a mayo!

that's as good a one has ive heard in a while.

car starter is makes a whizzing/whirling sound sometimes and doesn't turn over. then I try it again and it starts ok. it is getting more frequent now maybe once a day. any ideas. diesel car

Correct.conor mckenna is in oz and sean hackett is available unfortnatley.thats a mighty impressive squad we have at the minute. Savage workrate from 2-15 and a grt bench. Hopefully we can keep this bunch level headed

Yeah agree hes a not a top manager and mightn be. Time will tell. Any team he has went to has improved from him being there thats for sure.Fermgael you better not boo him tomorrow night, he only took about 120g of yous over 2yrs   

All im sayin fermgael is if tyrone player couldnt play his best football for canavan there would be somrthing wrong with him. Hes a walking legend down here. Good luck in the year ahead. Tipping yous to get to the ulster final

Yeah thats the supporters. The players thought othetwise. Sure if the tyrone supporters had there way harte a 3 time all ireland winner would be gone. What did paudie o shea say about supportets

D mccusker,tomas corrigan. BIG UNIT. Eoin donnelly
Clucker, mccabe.the list is endless as half the team walked during oneill time
Fermanagh were in disaray before he came and hes deserves credit for wat he done.

Yeah that  slaughneil match. Football is easy managed from the stands. Dont agree that he left
a mess behind him and few foundations. Why did so many players think so highly
of him then. The fact that players left after he quit is hardly his fault.james sherry work
commitments, mccabe soccer.id say look at the players
he brought through

on canavan. bennys right. he took errigal to the league a few times and def laid the foundations for errigal.daisy wouldn't play for him and that was the one player extra that they needed. the island beat them in dungannon the year they won it in the first round and errigal had 16/17 wides that day.i think errigal were beat by the eventual winners everytime under canavan. with Fermanagh again laid the founds, (ryan mccluskey said they had never experienced as high a level of management) but again a player wouldn't play for him in seamie quiqley.(headcase anyway). they nearly got promoted out div3 but just missed out narrowly. brought a championship to cavan gaels who hadn't won one in quite a few years. id say hes a good manager. the only thing that blackened his name was the massive money he had to get to go to Fermanagh and gaels. suppose if there foolish enough to hand it over that's there problem. Pete McGrath by all accounts is more or less just getting basic mileage allowance and would be a grt manager. look how long hes in the game. Fermangh would give any ulster team a game of it on there day and would be dangerous on the easy side of the usfc            MAN MARKER  id say you probably played in the reserves again errigal then yous had a few injuries and you were threw onto pick up canavan. (manager knew what he was doing and decided to put some manners on this young cub man marker).He made you sick with sidesteps and the ultimate humiliation u were subbed of again.   After that game u were christened the man marker. That's the only logical reason I can think of as why you don't like the wee  genius.

yeah forgot about a few. some squad we have. is big dan over his injuries. never really seen much of hampsey play only once or twice, meylers a good player. is a grugan u 21? Again we seem to be producing a smaller type player. Not much you can do about that. just play the hand ure dealt really. I will be watchin the line closlely to see how big a say wee peter has. Logan has worked with this group at underage so he should know the players inside out. nothing better than a midweek championship match

Would the simple answer  to better football not be to go 13 a side

Spare a thought for all the club forwards in Tyrone. At the minute they are all vying to 2 spots on the county team. Reduce football to 13 aside and they could become truely extinct!

Id say ure joking numb nuts. You would def have more space to kick the ball into. It would help reserve football as well as a majority of teams struggle as the season goes on to fulfil fixtures. reserve football in tyrone is already 13 aside in div 2/3 if the teams are struggling for numbers.

There are some exceptions but a lot of the time rte only show highlights of games that have been on Setanta or tg4 at the weekend and don't bother with the league. So I don't think them not sending cameras was anything to do with Harte but more there indifference to the gaa from October to May.

Positives and negatives from yesterday. Thought we put in a really good first half and worked hard and as a team throughout. We did run totally out of steam with 15 to go. The game plan on that omagh pitch obviously had a big impact. It is only match and no one would want to team to peak yet so hopefully there will be a bit more in the tank come championship.

The two areas that require most work are scoring and breaking ball. We're missing to many frees and dropping to many short from open play. We really need cavanagh Donnelly and Harte go start getting more on the score board. Mcaliskey was excellent in the first half yesterday but doesn't have the engine for the current game plan. He either needs to be excused of tracking back so far out the pitch or used as an impact sub with 30 to go.

Breaking ball from kickouts has to be a priority and has been an issue for at least 3 years. We aren't getting in positions to win breaking ball. Teams push up on our kickouts and we end up kicking to an isolated player with 3 or 4 opposition around them. We need to get back to basics and get more men around the ball.

Overall plenty to work on but I do think we're going to right road and our a lot further ahead with a settled team and plan.

How did morgan play. Few reckon mickey oneill should get a go. Were the frees missed long way out. Didn't get but to match cork indeed lead for most of the game would indicate we not far of the top table. next 3 games I suppose will tell us more. Looking forward to wed night. Fermanagh normally not upto much but this is the same group that won the mcrory a few years ago. They could be dangerous but id like to think wed be tuned into that. il have a stab at the team.Only a guess.

The issue isn't the handpass which is why I'd be slow to support restricting it (though it may prove to be the only workable solution) but the fact we've cottoned on to how you can stifle teams better than you. I am a bit concerned for the game at this stage. For the first time ever, I'm not particularly looking forward to the championship, the Ulster championship will most likely be all but unwatchable and with the possible exception of Connacht there's little else to get enthused about.

If teams, like Tyrone and Donegal, drop 15 men into their own 45 then their opponents have no option but to keep men back and we will witness versions of the infamous Dublin Donegal semi right throughout the summer. The depressing thing though is that this system has been found out and all it will result in is brutal games but with the result for the inferior team most likely the same.

I actually think both hurling and football have regressed as spectator sports, football because teams are playing turgid defensive tactics and hurling because the ball is too light and scoring is now childs play for any half competent hurler, Corks 36 odd points against Dublin last week was a joke.

on one hand you give out about football been to defensive then hurling having to many scores.

[Noel feilly is rubbish]

Shows the importance of a good jockey.if ruby was on conti he prob would have dot him in the
first 4. Noel feilly is rubbish.amazing the amount of horses that led from the front in big races and won. Gold cup,champ hurdle world hurdle

Indeed.

There are a lot of poor jockeys plying their trade at a fairly high level in the UK. Fehily is certainly not one of them.

Yeah im prob comparing him to the way ruby walsh would have rode him which is unfair, plus I wanted him to win. coneygree v silvi conti v Vautor/Douvan/Jackadam at king George next year would be some race. They will prob only run coneygree the same way best mate was run.
