Tyrone refused to give Armagh one as it totally galled them that Armagh beat them to the All-Ireland - both points statement of facts.

You talk some nonsense sir.

I think it's gas the last few years the relationship between most of the Mayo and Tyrone fans and the lack of respect for each other.

Really Fuzzman? I know I don't read too much Tyrone related threads, but I have nothing but respect for you lot. Then again I don't know many Tyrone people to have no respect for them either. Looking forward to this game to be honest. If Tyrone do win, I imagine they will be favourites for the final.

We're not a bad bunch really. Humble country people like yourselves.

Was reading that the tickets for the final aren't necessarily in the traditional season ticket seats. Where have you Mayo wans been placed for finals? Btw this is all theoretical and in no way a belief that we are already in the final of course!
Just think it's a bit of a kick in the stones if for the final you get shafted.

The good news is that if ye beat the Dubs and Kerry beat Mayo there will be a plethora of Season tickets seats available that would be taken up by Dublin and Mayo who have the Largest amount. Last year I got 309 for the final and 301 for the replayed final right under the hill. Enjoyed the tirade of abuse that was dished down to us from the Boys in Blue up high. God did that bunch not like us and let us know rightly after the final whistle. They were more interested in abusing leaving Mayo fans than enjoying their moment of glory with the team or maybe that was what they considered their moment of glory?

I was gutted for ye watching it at home. Cant even imagine what it was like with them beside you. 
On another note, the tyrone v dublin ones were to be allocated by 1pm but still no sign, is this standard? Ive never been on to print them right away when theyre allocated so dont know.

Does anyone have a link to that podcast? I wouldnt mind a listen.

I think weve been more less where we should be

Grand thanks!

Did Tiernan play in the Sigerson Cup final or was that his brother?

Brother, he's a pharmacist

Works in Dublin too. God love him for the next few weeks...

He did say that down there no one really knows about hus sporting background and that it is rarely talked about.

(That may change over the next couple of weeks though)

Rugby, both men's & women's, would be the biggest sport in the city.

I'm not sure he works in the city.

He definitely does,

[maybe it will be a draw.]

Why are people bring league form into it???
Monaghan almost beat Dublin in the league and Donegal drew with them........they are a different kettle of fish at this time of the year......hopefully Tyrone are a different team from the league also. The reality is nobody knows how these teams will match up and that's why it makes it for such an interesting game. Tyrone might win but they might get hammered, maybe it will be a draw.....hopefully it lives up to its billing and is a fantastic sporting occasion.

Dont even start that chat!

I have the BT Sports package, and it comes with that.

Ah I see. Don't have that. Thinking of switching to bt internet to get those channels.

How do your get this channel? Is it a separate subscription? Don't have it in sky.

One thing I noticed about him the other day. In injury time at the end of the game Ronan o neill played a poor ball to him that would have gave him a goal chance. The ball slipped and he was furious with o neill.

Tyrone were 18 points up at the time.

Plámásing of the highest order. You'd know Brogan has Kerry blood in his veins. Mickey Harte has not done it in a while now! And when I say it I mean knocked a serious team off their Perch. This is the type of article that can set you up for a fall.

He hasn't done it in a while indeed but all the while has rebuilding a team to challenge again. The fate of Armagh, Derry, Down, Meath, Cork etc would highlight the job he has done to keep Tyrone competitive when at times we just didn't have the quality to replace what was leaving. He still seems to freak out the Dubs and Kerry. They hold him in exceptionally high esteem and almost expect him to pull a rabbit out of the hat in big games.

The thing that Dublin will face, which they don't face very often, is a team absolutely ravenous to have a go at them. Most teams, especially in Leinster are beaten before a ball is kicked, Tyrone 100% believe they are going to win this game, Mickey, in my view has built a gamelan which he 100% believes will beat them. I have a feeling Dublin will adapt their game to play Tyrone, which would be a mistake and I feel that will be due to the respect they have for a team managed by Mickey.

Do they? Where do they get this belief from? Did they believe they'd beat an average Mayo side last year? Paddy Power have Tyrone at 5/2! Hardly the odds of a team to be afraid of?

I'd say the confidence comes form how Dublin struggled with their system in the two league outings since it was introduced. 1-9 and 0-10 is not what Dublin are used to registering and while it's only league, there's currently no team who defend and frustrate teams to the level Tyrone do right now.

If you're throwing the Mayo thing in from last year, they lost by a point to a side who drew and lost the replay to Dublin by 1 point. Tyrone know they badly underperformed that day yet they still had chances to rescue the game with 14 men. The year before that they cut Kerry through the middle time and time again but in the end pissed away numerous goal chances which should have won them the game.

Tyrone's confidence stems from a huge belief in the system they employ and a belief they are every bit as good as Kerry and Mayo who have tested Dublin.

The way you talk about last year would make someone think Mayo played Tyrone off the pitch and hammered them.

Did Tyrone win either of those games in which Dublin scored 1-9 or 0-10?
Have Tyrone beaten Kerry or Mayo when it counts recently?

I don't know what county you're from Tonto but this is the depressing defeatist attitude that seems to prevail, certainly in Leinster when teams play the likes of Dublin and all over Ireland when teams play Kerry. Ah sure, we didn't beat them last year, we've no chance this year. Thankfully, under Mickey Harte, Tyrone teams, if nothing else, don't have that inferiority complex.

It doesn't matter a jot when you are actually inferior, though.

You really think this Tyrone team is inferior to Dublin?? Do all middle of the road counties think this? Is this why Dublin/Kerry get a free run every year??? 

I truly believe this Tyrone team are good enough, this is the best setup to come together since the hayday of the 00s. We threw away a 6 point lead in the league but the ship has tightened up significantly since that.
Isolate those Dublin forwards and put them under pressure when shooting and they are... meh. Watch the Monaghan game back to see, time and time again there was no hand being put on Mannion, Andrews etc. Tyrone wont give away scoreable frees by the bucketload in the way Monaghan did either, so thats Rock curtailed.

Im telling you, Tyrone are equal partners in this, not there to make up numbers.

They drew with them in the league. And have improved immeasurably since that. Is that not proof enough they can beat Dublin?

Coldrick is the referee...

Gough will probably get the final now

Joe McQuillan I'd say.

Thought Mcquillan was sidelined for big games now

If you think there is wrongdoing, give all evidence to the police. Mob justice has no place in a civilised society. For starters, theres a higher chance theyve got the wrong person than if its the cops investigating it.
