Any truth that Gavin Devlin hopped the fence to join in the field fight? If true surely there has to be some sort of repercussions against him, poor conduct for our senior assistant manager.

Game was lost on the line , very simple

How exactly?

Team from last night:
S Fox - Killyclogher
C McCann - Fintona
M McKernan - Coalisland
S Hamill - Donaghmore
C Byrne - Eglish
F Burns - Pomeroy
M O'Neill - Ardboe
C McShane - Owen Roes
R Loughran - Carrickmore
M Flanagan - Omagh
M Kavanagh - Errigal
DD Mulgrew - Ardboe
L Brennan - Trillick
R Coleman - Moy
S Fox - Greencastle

Subs used: D Gallagher - Trillick, R McGlone - Aghaloo, S O'Donnell - Trillick, B McDonnell - Errigal

McKernan (2 Years), O'Neill, Mulgrew (2 Years), Brennan, Colman (2 Years) all still available next year along with plenty of the unused subs - Peter Teague, Padraig McGirr, Eoghain Murray; and those not part of the 24 - James Darcy, Johnny Harkin.
So a good foundation of a team to work on for next year.

Monaghan relieved Tyrone of the Ulster U21 title with a brilliant 0-13 to 0-11 victory secured in swirling wind and pouring rain at the Athletic Grounds.

Disappointing result last night for the lads. Personally i felt they didnt take enough advantage of their dominance in the first half and only going in a point up was not reflective of their excellent first half performance. Defensively Tyrone gave away some soft free kicks which kept Monaghan in touch. Was disappointed by the performance of the bigger players on the team - Burns, McShane, Mulgrew and Kavanagh.
Was impressed with a Hamill and McKernan in the full back line and by Fox and Brennan in the forward line. Brennan is something special, the sideline point was spectacular, but unfortunately was the only scoring threat tyrone carried.

2008 Final: TYRONE: T Harney; F McQuaid, G Teague, R Tierney (0-02); S MacRory, P Harte (0-01, 0-01 pen), R McNabb (0-01); N McKenna (0-02), R Keenan; C Gervin (0-01), D McNulty, M Donnelly (0-02); K Coney (0-05), P McNeice (0-03, 0-03f), C O'Neill (1-03, 0-02f).
Subs used: S Warnock for Teague (25-29 mins, blood sub), M Rogers for Keenan (47), K Mossey for MacRory (48), S Warnock for McNulty (49), B McGarvey for Tierney (78).

2010 Final: TYRONE: C Spiers; S McGarrity, C Clarke, HP McGeary; N Sludden (0-1), M Donaghy (0-1), E Deeney (0-1); H Óg Conlon (1-0), C Grugan (0-2); R Donnelly, T Canavan (0-1 free), R Devlin; S Tierney, J McCullagh (0-4), R Ó Néill (0-2, 0-1 free).
Subs: P McNulty for Donaghy (40), L Girvan for Devlin (48), D Donnelly for Tierney (54).

Out of the two minor winning teams we have brought through Peter Harte, Ronan McNabb, Mattie Donnelly, Niall McKenna, HP McGeary, Niall Sludden, Richie Donnelly, Ronan O'Neill, Conor Clarke and Padraig McNulty onto the current senior panel and all are set to play key parts in the coming year with the exception maybe of Clarke and McKenna.
10 Minors through to seniors with 8 of those being key players within the squad isnt the worst of returns.

Forgot McCurry was an unused sub on the 2010 team which is another.

Must be in final year of minors to pay adult football.

Does that apply for U21 football as well?

No I think all 17 and 18 year olds eligible

Correct under 17s and over are eligible for under 21s.
Its the only football this age group gets other than minors this year which is a disgrace, especially if they exit the minor competitions early.

AGREED. Throw in the fact that U21's are regarded with distain by the county board and clubs alike as every year we see it wedged in somewhere to get it out of the wya with lots of clubs even pulling teams from it all together

And come points during the season teams wont be fit to field reserve teams and them probably with some under 17s leaning over the wire watching on. Bit of a joke really for smaller clubs.

Conor McKenna sore loss from that panel. Genuine AI material if he was still available.

6 OF LAST YEARS DEFENCE ARE AWAY, WHATS YOUR POINT?

1- Sean Fox
2- Shea Hamill
3- Peter Teague
4- Darren Devlin
5- Colm Bryne
6- Sean Loughran
7- Eoghan Murray
8- Cathal McShane
9- Frank Burns
10- Pauric McAnenly
11- Mark Kavanagh
12 - DD Mulgrew
13- Sean Fox
14- Ryan Loughran
15- Lee Brennan

DD apparently not playing but not 100% sure of this. If not Daire Gallagher or Ben McDonnell will probably take his place.

Carrickmore huh?

Carrickmore will find it tough enough against Greencastle. Not the team they once were.

You've picked up what I'm saying wrong. There would be 11 starred games, with 2 points for a win here. There would be 11 non starred games, with 3 points for a win in those games. Teams wouldn't get a different number of points. It would make the non starred games slightly more important but certainly not enough to make the starred ones meaningless.

LOL I'm pretty sure they were beat in Div 2 U21 final in 2015 by the guts of 10points....by Edendork possibly?

Won 4 under 21 championships in last 7 years and beaten in two finals in the same time.

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.

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.
