Tyrone Club Football and Hurling

Fionn's posts have been down for a very long time lads. I had noticed he had gone quiet well over 3/4 months ago and couldn't find them. Bogball you're on the wind up here, not great timing tbh...

I have not deleted anything by poster Fionntamhnach.

The poster did delete a lot of his posts in late Dec 2022 and the last activity of that username is logged as 27 Dec 2022 at approx 3:15pm.

Apologies.... bogball winding up on a bad night for wind ups.

Whilst not condoning the actions or anything like that I believe there was no knife involved as earlier reported. Believe the weapon was an umbrella.

Are you on the wind up? How does anyone confuse the two ....

Some rumours going about
I've heard knife, pocketknife, Stanley knife and now an umbrella

Fintona and TCB have real mess on their hands.

From the photos of the victim's injury it looks like it was his lower leg that sustained the damage. My initial reaction to seeing that, and from knowing a bit about the guilty party, was that maybe it was an umbrella used and not a knife?

Now, that doesn't condone the incident one bit at all and I'm not trying to - it should never have happened - but I'd sincerely like to think that no one would carry any form of knife to a football match (or carry one at all!).

Folks I know Fionn and his family, this is totally shocking and my heart goes out to his own family who have went through a lot in the past few years. Regarding Fionn this is totally out of character but I know that he does have his own problems so maybe better to say as little as possible about this. A proper thinking Fionn would never do something like this in a million years

I think that works for us all.  Well said.

Fintona had invested hugely in this team, their first great team for more than a generation. Some of the decisions last night were apparently controversial. Emotions have to be controlled though.

Strange the semi wasn't at a neutral ground. There were no issues at other Carrickmore-Errigal semi.

There was however issues two weeks ago between Loughmacory and Ardboe in the same U16 competition that involved players, coaches and supporters in a mass brawl and an incident of an adult putting his hands on an U16 player.

Two people injured. Assuming the referee and the other man who tried to protect him.

[TyroneClubs]

An awful situation no doubt but with a full round of games tonight is there any word on what the refs are thinking?

Couldn't blame them if they did strike but someone bound to be in the know by this stage

[rrhf]

I hi k it would be a stronger statement to ref the games and take the respect and support that 99 percent of people have for them. It's a chance to acknowledge them.

[square_ball]

I'd imagine 99% do have respect for referees but once that whistle blows and for 60 minutes it goes completely out the window and he's out to ride your club.

Seen messages doing the rounds supposedly from a Fintona person claiming the referee fixed the game for Cookstown. Fixed an u16 game for crying out loud.

To even have that mindset after what had happened is scary and only further highlights the scale of the problem the GAA is facing regarding referees in general. The result of that game last night became irrelevant as soon as someone decided to enter the pitch and attempt to harm the ref.
