Tyrone County Football and Hurling

[GaaFanatic123]

Darren McCurry with 0-08 for Edendork. Showing what he is capable of with some freedom.

Maybe Harte should write to the top counties and ask them if they could give him a bit more space like at club level.

Another ignorant comment.. Let's face it Harte failed with McCurry just like he failed a string of other players. Including Coney. Lee Brennan should be glad Harte has been forced to change the system this year. Probably the only players Mickey has turned from been average to superstars is Mark Harte Davy Harte and Peter Harte.

Peter Harte average?? He was one of the best minors in the country and then went on to become one of the best seniors in the country.
On Mark he was a stand out player for Errigal winning Tyrone and Ulsters so deservedly played for Tyrone and to be fair done a job when playing as he was mainly in as a free taker and never missed a free when selected, and on Davey he was one of the best half back in Ireland at one stage!
I think our current Captain Mattie turned from average to a superstar under Harte?
Weather some people like it or not, Harte has been the greatest manager this county has ever had!!

This is absolute nonsense even for this board. He took a core team through minors, u-21 and senior winning every accolade along the way. The amount of players he made into superstars is endless.

So when his players play well its because they were good anyway but when they fail its Hartes fault? Away and listen to yourself. Ive work to do. Slán.

I'm not deluded enough to think this group of players is as good at ten years ago but when they play as they did against Dublin last year yes I blame the manager. "We were slaves to a system" said Sean Cavanagh. Slan yerself : )

or maybe Harte could give his players some freedom to play... as Sean Cavanagh said about last year they were "slaves to a system." We'll see how it develops this summer when they meet the big guns

I'm sure Gavin tell's the Dublin lads go out and have a bit of craic and do as you please. This system stuff and lack of freedom is an easy excuse. A lack of freedom doesn't make you miss important free kicks for example.

some difference the system Tyrone could play 2003 - 2010 and last few years and Im guessing Sean would know

The next time Tyrone are playing Clonoe we should give Darren a shout... Notice he kicked a last minute free to win it yesterday as well, pity he couldn't do the same for Tyrone over the last few years

Should be noted in context, Connor McAliskey missed a last kick free to draw it.

Can we blame Harte for him missing this free?

Sure what do I care about what Mickey Harte thinks?

I'm just saying if men are going to slate a lad for scoring a winning free as an ex Tyrone player for what they perceive as not stepping up when it counts, they should maybe worry more about a current Tyrone player missing frees under the same circumstances in the same game.

Or is that maybe too logical?

You need to turn on your sense of humour.

Lettuce move on lads

On current form how would be your starting 15?
Is Hampsey back on the square now?
Has McNamee dropped down the pecking order?
Has McCarron regained some of his hair sorry I mean form?

Will we have another set of brothers in the team in the McGearys?
Will Richie Donnelly ever be fit for more than two games and show us all his true worth?
Who is our best MF now that we do have some options in that area?
Is Mattie better at CHB or CHF?

Will Tiernan be back for the summer?
Will we have a plan B this year or is that just for Croke Park stewards these days?
What happens if Lee gets injured? Has he passed out his older brother as first choice now? How good can he be?

Will McShane be our answer at FF or is he another Enda McGinley 3rd midfielder?
Will Mark Bradley no longer be our only player up in the FF line surrounded by 3 Monaghan defenders.

Is Frank Burns our new solid CHB to finally replace Seamus McCallan from 1996?

Does anyone know will Dan McNulty ever come back into the county setup
Will any of these questions be answered this summer?

Interesting reading through the U21 final match report which is 3 years ago in 3 weeks time.

I thought Mark Kavanagh certainly would have made it to the senior team from that season.

You really love that quote. 

Full quote was 

""We maybe were a bit of a slave last year to one system," Cavanagh admitted. "It was working for us, though, and we totally believed it was going to be enough to win.But this year, I think every team in Ireland realises that there's going to have to be more systems within a game."

As in no plan B. Not that there shouldn't be a system.

Fuzzman, my opinions only:

1. Hampsey is probably our best man to man defender/footballer.
2. McNamee I think has let his ship sailed. Was exposed when left inside with no protection. Seemed too interested in being at the opening of everything.
3. If there's two 1 McGeary on the team, never mind 2 then we are in bother.
4. I think McCann will be back for some role, think he'll struggle at this stage to break into the starting 15
5. Can't see McShane making the team in either role. Still too raw with decisions even though he has improved vastly.
6a) Burns is playing CHB in all but name. He is doing a Colly Cav role mark (ii), if i was a Dub would I want to see Burns against O'Callaghan? Of course.
6b)Just FYI, since McCallan, we've had Holmes, Gormley, both McMahons and Ricey all play at CHB, so it wasn't as if we were void of options since big Seamy and his outside of the left.

don't see where I advocate playing like headless chickens but a weeeee bit of pushing up on the Dubs wouldn't have gone amiss. Not so far out of context but we'll call a ceasefire to we see how things pan out this August when it's time to play Mayo or Kerry or the Dubs, hopefully things will have changed.

Jaysus lads some dodgy statements in here.

1. How the feck does McNamee attending 'openings' affect his footballing? I'd say he'll still see plenty of game time this year. Needs to cut down on his sledging/aggression imo.

2. Fuzz, I don't think Matty has ever truly played the #11 role. Almost sure we'll see a Harte, Sludden, Donnelly HF line v Monaghan. Likewise, although McShane has been named at #14 in a number of games I'd wager he's only spent around 10 mins actually in that position. I have a feeling Harte might go with Brennan, McAliskey, McShane in FF line with McShane operating further out the field. Mark Bradley was a bit quiet in the league and may find his position under threat and instead be used as an impact sub for last 20mins.

3. Think Conor Gormley (in particular) may have a case for being one of our most solid (perhaps best?) CHBs.

4. Ridiculous statement re the McGeary's. HP was arguably one of our best performers in the league and was on fire that day in Mayo prior to his wipeout. Kieran is fantastic too but finds himself fighting for a position in the most competitive part of our team.
