Jesus, i really hope he's retired.  if he hasnt, then when he does, we'll have to go through all this sh1t again!!!

If you don't like it-don't read it. If the Armagh ones want to let off a bit of steam then they are wholly entitled to.

I have kept my councel on this for a long time but the evening of the Tyrone Vs Dublin game last year I had a car to go through MOT. Sitting in the test centre in Armagh I seen a woman step out of car in the tattiest Dublin jersey you have ever seen. She didnt have an Armagh accent and was just a bitter sickening Armagh supporter. A far cry for the hundreds if not thousands that journeyed into Armagh city to see the home coming in 2002. If it hadn't of been Jordan they used as a scapegoat then it would have been the referee, if it wasn't the referee then it would have been something else. Just like they used Big Joe as the scapegoat in 2005. Face it Orchard fans, you were not as good as what you thought you were.

Neither do I, considering he was training like a man posessed and is fantastic nick. I think a lot to do with it is Mellon's retirement. These two men were playing on the same sides since no age. Maybe the thought of going to Omagh/Cookstown has lost its appeal. Who Knows?


But i can confirm it is over.

Lads, it is true. Harte is playing mind games and behind the scene talks are trying to get him back but it is definitely over for the greatest number 7 that I personally have ever seen.

Armagh posters-get over it. Marsden let you/s down and you have only him or Big Joe to blame for your solitary fortunate lonely all ireland.

2003-Marsden hit Philip Jordan but its Jordans fault.
2004-
2005-
2006-

Remember the pin point (satelitte guided quite possibly) pass into Mulligan who in turn feeded Canavan for the goal in 2005?

Great memories Philly.

Great pic O'Neill-but the thing that will stick in my mind so vividly is his reaction after the 2005 all-ireland semi in a game where he didnt have his best day at the office and was replace with 5 to go. Boy, he looked like he enjoyed that victory more than any other.

Great timing by Philly too, by holding out so long the starred games were already assigned. We will now have him available against the teams who have 3/4 county players. (Dromore, Omagh etc.)

As an Armagh man i have admired several Tyrone players; Peter Canavan, Eugene McKenna, Fay Devlin, Sean Cavanagh. I recognise that phillip Jordan was a ver good player but he does not have my admiration. probably like many Armagh supporters when i think of him i think of him falling like a ronaldo's sister in 2003 final after he was the one who made a tear for Diarmuid Marsden. Seeing a grown man rolling on the ground holding his face after hardly being touched was embarrassing.
No matter what he did in the years following that i could not look at him without scowling. Hope he continuesto have a good club career and is prob a nice lad, but for me what sticks out is him diving it made me sick and still does.

will be a miss for Tyrone.

Marsden assaulted him-disgraceful antics from him. Who did Marsden think he was-Neil Lennon? Same breeding i suppose.

Talking about dives-a bit rich from the orchard "faithful"-what about O'Rourke's 5.5 after being flicked by Mulligans boot in 05 or his older brother doing the peek a boo act when lying down in the build up to the penalty.

To the Armagh faithful-dont throw those stones you bitter bitter men.

Defenders never get the recognition they deserve. Fact is Jordan could have played from 2-15. He was that good that he was never considered being dropped/rotated/played out of position.

The number 7 has his IMO will take something very special to fill it.

Jordan has been IMO the reason for the success. A go to player if ever there was one. Cool on the ball, great vision, an engine to die for and to top it of he is as level headed with no airs nor graces.

He was meant to retire in 08 and stayed on to attempt the two in a row. Again in 09 he was meant to pull the plug but was persuaded top stay on. 2010 was gutting for all but I think it hit Jordan more than anyone can imagine. Im looking forward to seeing him with the club in every game although the posts mentioning a possible medical decision for his withdrawal is very worrying.

more good news :)

There's a great reception for Philip Jordan as the Moy man enters the fray in place of Damian McCaul for his first taste of intercounty football in 2011. It's great to have the three times All-Star back in action today

4 times, just to clarify.

Great to see the team performing so well, february football does not suit our thoroughbreds-September much better.

Welcome Fat Head, I shall enjoy winding you up in the future. Its good to get a second opinion from Kildress of someone who was at the game and now we have two sides to the argument so people can make their own judgement. I shall be keeping my counsel on mine as Omagh Gael/s have threathened to take a high court injunction against Final Whistle if he comments on the tones disciplinary record again. The Omagh St.Enda's 16th player must be getting some challange games of their own in but I do hope we are not waiting to winter to see the tail end in the chamionship because some club appeals. Now I have heard of physios and psychologists and dieticians but Omagh are really setting a trend. Not only are they coached and managed by two "volunteers" but they have a legal team that would rival the moriarty tribunal.

(Edit-before anyone says otherwise I know we won't be involved in the tail end of the championship and therefore won;t affect me!)

Sometimes I get offered a Tyre Slick or a Mini Valet. Screen Wash in my tank sometimes comes complimentary. Depends on what one you go to I suppose. Where is this car wash that you speak so mystically about?

By the way Final whistle, Moy havent many fans around Tyrone either. 
Was one of the Moy lads father not going around slapping people in the crowd last year?

No definitely not last year. In previous years you probably have a point but anger management classes and a dose of valium in his pre match stew has resulted in more love than hate coming from that paticular gentleman.

Would Carmen not have form with violence in the stand stateside? Regarding the biting at the Tones lads, I truely get on really well with every Kildress person I know. I say the same things to their faces as I say on here. I enjoy the craic and the seem to too. If it is a case that other posters believe that Radda/N.D/I are being anything less than WUMs on this subject well then I apologise and in future will say nothing but nice stuff about all.

F*ck it-I hope the Tones do the double this year!

Matter closed.

Maybe for a first hand (same country) account we should wait for the other thug (Radda Bouy Yee).

Although your opinion is greatly appreciated New Devil, your account of whatever took place is at least second or third source although HBO are considering screening live Kildress matches as a replacement to the now vacant super bantamweight division. Producers are hoping for action packed displays against the likes of Newtownstewart and Galbally.

X rated viewing supposedly-not suitable for young children. When it does go live state side New Devil I will await your opinion with baited breath.
