boylan stayed another 6 yrs after his last all ireland in 99. mickey has stayed 8.

Boylan stayed for 8 years after he won in 1988 and then won another two All Irelands in 1996 and 1999. You'd have got rid of him before he got the chance to win in 96.

we're not even close lad and when Sean goes...

Not even close? We are currently the best team in Ulster and left the Mayo game behind us and they went on to push the dubs right to the wire. I don't think we are that far away.

Not on today's showing

I see Stefan Johansen scored again for Fulham tonight.I am struggling to think of any other player who got such a raw deal at Celtic in any era

Absolutely shocking news.

On another note there feels like it's wrong to be watching live boxing at half 8 in the morning.

All this talk about Mc Kenna. The question is who is the best full forward in Tyrone club football?

Is Mc Gregor on the wind up? Buying a southern Californian boxing license €50 would buy one. I don't think he would win an Irish amateur title at any weight from 54-75 kg. I fear this is a wind up as he's bound to know he's not at the level of any middle ranked welterweight out there.

Can anyone confirm or deny Terry McCann is the new Tattyreagh manager.

Has Mc Hugh and ferguson stepped down? Thought they said they were staying on

Ginola from cookstown has Moortown job....

Strange one that don't even think I mind him managing a youth team for cookstown. Wasn't a bad player read on here his name linked with kildress too. Who's managing cookstown next year?

Rigo v lomenchenko is the talk at a catch weight. Would be very interesting fight one can't miss the other doesn't get hit. Something's gotta give

He was getting battered and had absolutely no answer for what was facing. Easy to criticise someone for not having heart but I imagine it's a hell of a lot easier to decide you don't want any more of it when getting the head chewed up with no idea how you might go about winning the fight.

As I said early it is easy saying it while sitting watching and any man that has to balls to fight for a living deserves respect. It's just he wasn't getting battered, he hadn't a mark on his face, but more of a boxing lesson. He didn't take any really bad punches and certainly wasnt hurt.  I think he realised he was getting outclassed and just gave up to easy for someone who was meant to be a world class fighter. One of Lomavchenko's weaknesses I feel is that he isn't really a heavy puncher and if he is going to go up the weight classes then this might be his one slight flaw. He is amazing to watch though, his speed and movement is phenomenal. Nearly 400 amateur fights and only beat once. Ridiculous.

What would you rather get a kick from a horse or 100 bee stings. Powers nice but speed and accuracy is lethal.

Some moaners on here hi. Tyrone has the biggest readership of the Irishnews outside Belfast. Paddy Heaney said it at clubtyrone thing 2 years ago. He said they will always try to pages with Tyrone stories

true but there is more to Tyrone than Mickey Harte or players talking about Mickey Harte

I imagine its probably very difficult to fill 10 pages with GAA news 6 days a week. If they get a nugget like an interview with Harte, the county manager I imagine they will make the most of it.

What do you want them to do? an 2 page spread interviewing a Dromore corner forward who no one knows outside of tyrone. Meyler was asked about Harte because the paper knows it will get a reaction and more important get people like yourself to read the article and have a moan.

What an idiotic thing to be complaining about, a paper putting articles that relate to Harte 2 days running lol.

When I saw it was about Harte I didnt read it... would be nothing new in it... zzzz


So you are complaining about an article you have never read? There is a word for people like you and it rhymes with Horan!

Mickey is a great man bla bla... is a word for you rhymes with sickbed  :)


Lmao very good

Good start to the pro ranks for Taylor,  a serious operator.

On another note, I see nick Blackwell is back in hospital having surgery on his brain,  he got injured during a sparring session.  Crazy decision from him and those that were there for it too.

Katie was phenomenal as I had expected her to be. She seems to have left all the crap from her last year as an amateur behind her, seems to be back in a really good place. Great to see.

I read that about Blackwell I really hope he is ok and gets on the mend soon this is the other side of boxing, a cruel sport at times too.

Looks like sinclair missing tomorrow he will be missed i thought it was a cynical enough challenge on him by the barca player.

Sinclair will be a big miss surely but Forrest and Roberts on the wings the first leg of the treble should be delivered.

Cookstown not doing too much yo-yoing these days in fairness. Firmly cemented to mid table div 2 this past while and look to be going nowhere fast.

You have to wonder if Rock players get same buzz out of it having been there before, some of them a few times. Still an ulster final i suppose and not something too many of us have achieved.

You'd have to fancy Pomeroy for the intermediate title given they are playing with 3 county panelists at this level.

In Mulligan's book he said it didn't mean the same the second time winning All Ireland club and more or less they shouldn't have been in that division. I thought there was a rule that a team couldnt be back in the competition within five years?

Think you're right there. A Tyrone hurling club got to the All Ireland final and they couldn't enter Ulster for the next 5 years that was junior hurling but I'd assume the rule is association wide.

I would swap either Michael O'Neill (managed twice commendably against the current World Champions this year,as elite as you can get) or Stephen Kenny for Rodgers instantly.Their achievements against the odds far outweigh anything Rodgers has done.But as long as the gullible are content with romping away with a one horse league and failing miserably in Europe,his position is safe.

I don't expect Celtic to win the Champions league but I do expect the team to be competitive and credible in every game they play,and two points out of twelve is embarrassing.

Aye good one #Tonymark2
