Parkinson is grand, the only shit stirring he seems to do is with Carlow and he seems to have a Brollyesque grudge for that Poacher fella.

If they ever went about doing up Ballymote properly it'd be able but the non-vesting issue would probably put paid to that anyway.
Ithcy what are Sligo going to do next year then when Markivich is being done? Like you say Tubber and Enniscrone can't hold a championship game, I'd even be surprised if Tubber was up to a league game.
Also regarding that list from Laoisman, it's brilliant. While from week to week you will see anomalies at the end of the summer it's usually spot on. London being so much lower than NY is probably as a result of losing a load of points from a bad league, something NY can't do so that's not the author of the things fault. Honestly, he'd be as well leaving NY off it altogether apart from using them to judge for the 1 game a year they play.

That incident in the photograph took place on the Kerry 45 if my memory serves me correctly. It certainly wasnt a case of Tyrone bringing large numbers of players back into a defensive shape.
I think your memory is coloured by pat spillanes post game comments more than actually remembering the game itself.
I was at the game and i don't have pay attention to what gobshites on RTE has to say on games. Doesn't matter where the photograph was taken as that was a feature of Tyrone play during that game to unsettle Kerry and it worked a treat.
When i watch a game organization in defence is what i like to see as much as anything as all the successful teams have been organized in defence one time or another. Watching games where the losing sides take a trimming because they are poorly organized in defence is a real pet hate of mine and you then have the nonsense of managers coming out afterwards wondering where it all went wrong..

read my post again.
Ok fair enough though you do say we are capable of beating Mayo or Kerry which I see nothing to indicate that.
Narrow championship defeats to these two teams in the last few years. We are absolutely capable of beating Kerry/Mayo.
It's the hope that kills

Fermanagh are also appealing the suspension dished out to their water boy during the semi final. Let's not be hypocrites here, all counties are as guilty as each other. However the Tyrone appeal is slightly different in that they were not put at any clear disadvantage numerically. I think it is as a result of the ill feeling created from the brawl involving team management. I can't understand why you would want to try and win in this manner.

They don't have quality of player that Tyrone had in 2003 obviously so its either continue to do what they are doing or go back and be the whipping boys of Leinster football.
So what Carlow do isn't a defensive system but what Tyrone did in 2003 was?
What about Dublin now? They hassle and harry over the pitch to try to get the ball turned over as quick as possible. Is that a defensive system they employ?
Leinster is such a stroll for Dublin that they don't need to focus much on defensive sides of things until the All Ireland series and IMO they can make themselves as tough to break down as any team even though some pundits have the narrative that they are all out attacking team.

I wonder will there be the same level of critique for Donegal appealing the red card at the weekend? Will there fk.
This culture of appealing every red card is a blight on the game. McGee left the knee in about 4 times and still they are appealing the decision. Maybe the ref forgot to hole punch his report so Donegal have them on a technicality.
