Tyrone County Football and Hurling

[southtyronegael]

Fan of Mickey but his comments about Sky being superior to all other stations is bullshit.Maybe he is looking for the gig himself.

for a change actually agree with Harte on this one. Rte coverage wouldn't put a patch on sky analysis of games. I'd be more worried about why Harte feels he has to have his say on everything instead of concentrating on the next game.

[square_ball]

It's very simple - he was asked a question in a press conference and he answered it. You'd think going by some you lads he just rings up a newspaper and gives his view on things.

Plus he is right sky sports analysis is so far ahead of rte it's not even funny.

[trueblue1234]

Harte on about RTE again... is sad that hatred he has. Not doing him any good...

I don't think Harte is on about it anymore. He just hasn't changed his stance on it. I've no issue with that. Course I'm the sort to hold a grudge myself!! 

[Redhand Santa]

It sounded like he was basically asked if he supported Jim Gavin's stance. In his response he said he didn't particularly like the rte coverage with boys out to make a name for themselves whereas sky had better analysis. No idea how anyone could take offence at that. Plenty of people would agree with it.

MH was asked a question, answered it and elaborated on it.

Can anyone disagree with what he said? Was it incorrect? Are TSG better analysts than SS analysts?
I think not

[WT4E]

I think it is what is driving him, the thought of a banquet snub but if he gets there will find it a hollow victory and wake up next day still angry. Will never be enough; needs to let it go. The SKY crew are boring and its  a rip-off

100% Agree

Wheres the christian values in this? - forgive and forget!

Its fair to forgive but I don't think forget is an option.  That will always be a shadow lurking.  Tyrone players are obviously behind micky either through support or fear but they tow the party line and refuse to speak with RTE until they retire from inter-county football and RTE didn't continue to use Jordan, McGuigan or Ricey as main contributors.

Jordan does a (usually excellent) weekly column for RTE that he'd be doing fairly well out of.

The only people who consider RTE better than SKY are dinosaurs who take some moral high ground on the GAA selling out to sky or those who don't have access to SKY.

Sky presenters (apart from senan Connell) provide excellent view on the modern game. RTE is a pantomime!

[BennyHarp]

For all his RTE rhetoric Harte still watches it obviously : )   aye terrible dinasours against children and older people denied access to our games... Harte is vying for a spot there on Sky with Murdock

There are some crazy people on this forum.  How does anyone's mind work in such a way so they arrive at the conclusion that if Harte thinks Peter Canavan and Jimmy McGuinness give better analysis of games than Joe Brolly and Pat Spillane = Harte wants to deny access to our games to children and old people.

By the way, i also enjoyed your analysis that the only reason Mickey has devoted the majority of his life to Tyrone GAA is so he can snub RTE at the winners banquet. Top class!

Denied access to our games, what a load of crap. You can go to any game you want and pay a fee to get in, no one is stopping you, your children or your dinosaurs.

The more games shown the better. I don't care what harte said or what he is planning but he is 100% correct about the sky coverage

[longballin]

There are a lot of people can't afford SKY and is not viable to drag a load of children or elderly to a pub...

What about those who were denied access to the Meath v Sligo game at the weekend?

[BennyHarp]

As eye rolly as your nonsense about kids and older people. What did people do before games where on TV?
