I've also backed him up until now but no longer can, yesterday's result was embarrassing. At least if he admitted the recent performances are not good enough for a man united team, but he hasn't, he continues to say the opposite. I firmly believe we've made little or no progress from the moyes era and for that reason, he isn't up to the job and has to go. The only reason we're still in the top four is the fact Chelsea Liverpool, Chelsea and Tottenham recently have been very poor.

4th mightn't be enough. Premier League in danger of losing a place if either arsenal or Chelsea get knocked out tomorrow.

4th will be enough this season. However if the Italians do move ahead of the English in the co-efficient rankings on completion of this seasons European competitions, it will come into effect the following year, season 2017/2018.

I agree with a previous poster, nominees are obviously selected based on how successful their club has been that season, which usually requires a championship run where they have had a number of games that are well publicised in papers, radio, internet etc.

Alex ferguson, arsene wenger, David moyes and Harry rednapp.

I've heard from a good source Colm McCullagh may be in line for the dromore job. Word is they'd prefer to have an inside manager. Him along with ricey (if he decides to retire) would be a formidable duo.

And your basing that assessment on??

My assessment that they would be a formidable duo?? If thats what your questioning, the fact both are all Ireland winners with tyrone, have won club championships and league titles with Dromore and would be widely respected by the players and supporters. I also believe Ricey is heavily involved in coaching their underage teams. If that enough Thastheball?? Before you start I realise good players don't always make good managers. There are as many examples of good players being very successful managers ie. Oisin mcconville and john mcentee!

Is there any reason why Dan McNulty hasn't been called up?

Can be very slack and can be very hit or miss, which is not what a senior intercounty team needs.
There would be more value bringing Kyle Coney back in than persisting with Dan McNulty.

Persisting?? He is only 21 and has barely had a kick with the senior team, how is this persisting with him? It's a coaches job to make him more hit than miss, we shouldn't expect the finished article at such a young age. But he has plenty of potential.

I agree, think McNulty has great potential. I don't see the value in recalling Kyle Coney and 'persisting' with him. He's had a few chances and hasn't produced the goods on a regular basis.

What's the thoughts on Hugh Pat McGeary?

How has he been playing at club level? Wouldn't really have earmarked him as a future county senior when I saw him play underage for the county.

Haven't seen a lot of him but what I have seen I was very impressed. Didn't give John McCullagh a kick in the championship last year. Very physically strong and loads of pace.

Johnny Munroe was under 21 in 2014, therefore he is one year older than all these lads you are talking about. Mc nabb, mc Namee, colly cavanagh etc didn't reach their potential until mid 20s

Irrespective of what age he is or when he'll reach his potential I don't think he's capable of playing county football, in my informed opinion.

I heard Johnny Munroe from Carrickmore has been called up to the senior panel after the league final on Sunday.
Any word on anyone else getting called up?

Don't think he's strong enough or good enough for county football.

I think he is good enough

For someone to think that johnny munroe is not good enough or strong enough to play county football is ridiculous.  You havent seen him play much this year? Carrickmores best player by a long way (i know some of the smart assed knowledgeable people in this might say 'that wouldnt be hard').  I would have him on may team everyday day of the week over Aidan McCrory.

Your looking through your carrickmore tinted glasses. I don't think it's ridiculous to say he's not good enough. As the previous poster stated, there's quite a few men who are more worthy of a call up. He never stood out as a future tyrone senior whilst playing for minors or u21s.

Would you consider any of you're Greencastle men worthy of a Tyrone trial at the minute? That is if you can get them out of Eddie McCullaghs!

No I don't consider any of our men good enough at the moment and never have I made the suggestion! Carrickmore men are taking great offence at my opinion on Monroe. Like it or not, there's at least 6/7 men in the county who I believe are ahead of Monroe.

Dont think anybody is taking offence but just stating how highly rated he is within the club and that he is certainly deserving of a place in the county squad. Having watched Johnny and other established county stars down the years within our club, i think he has the potential to be as good any of the lads that have wore the county jersey from our club. This is my opinion. Can you name the 6/7 men you reckon are ahead of him as a matter of interest?

Its understandable your going to defend your club colleague but it doesn't mean that your right. Everybody's entitled to have an opinion and that's mine. I would count Michael Cassidy, Ruairi Mullan, Kieran McGeary, Dwayne Quinn, Padraig Hampsey, Ruairi Kelly and Niall Sludden all ahead of him for a spot in the defence.

Can i asked on what basis are you basing your opinion on that these fellas are ahead of Johnny? I am not doubting that these lads are good footballers but after watching a lot of club football this year and seeing most of these lads play I rate johnny better than most if not all.  I know you think i am looking at this through rose tinted glasses but believe me, this is not an opinion just based on my club loyalties.

I'm not the only one that thinks these 7 lads are capable of playing county football, there's a broad consensus that they should and will be called up. Four of the lads I mentioned starred in defence on the Tyrone U21 All Ireland winning side this year. Ruairi Kelly was a used substitute on the same side and has put in some great performances for Trillick at full back on their way to an Ulster semi final. Both Quinn and Sludden have played on O'Neill cup winning sides recently and are considered by many as mainstays of their respective team. I must admit I've only seen Monroe play twice this year but on both occasions he didn't stand out as county standard. If we're going to be serious about challenging for an All Ireland I'm afraid Monroe is not the answer.

And i am not the only one who things Johnny deserves his chance and these people are basing their opinion on more watching him in more than 2 games!!   I am not saying that johnny is ready to come in and get a starting slot straight away.  His potential is huge and with a bit more experience and strength and conditional coaching he could be an automatic starter in a few years.  He is also a main stay on the carrickmore team.  (At least he ticks one box of your selection criteria)

Automatic starter in a few years? A previous poster has already confirmed he's either 22 or 23 years old. So what you're saying is he'll be ready for county football by the time he hits 26/27 years of age. Can we wait that long? Surely it would make more sense to concentrate on developing the lads that are just out of U21 football with an All Ireland medal to boot. Maybe he'll prove me wrong but I'm doubtful.
