Ah that's incredibly sad. An inspirational guy, seemed full of life in the BBC podcast. Hard to get the head around how quickly it has taken him. RIP Jody and huge condolences to his family and all involved with Trillick GAA.
That was never a square ball!!

RIP Jody Gormley.

His podcast with Niblock and McConville was a hard watch, but his bravery shone through what can have only been a tough time for him and his family.

Quote from: GlenMan on December 08, 2024, 02:33:13 PMI see Conor sally is going to drag the county through an ulster appeals process (an no doubt DRA).

Seems he returned his nomination form after the deadline but still thinks he should be allowed to stand.

Shameful stuff. Happy to do this to our county, because of his late return, and still wants to be elected???

Sally is a good man. Right man for the job.

Seems petty in the extreme to try and block the nomination, politically motivated nonsense

Good news. Sally was successful and won his appeal...
More good news, Benny Hurl won his vote tonight - a landslide.

It would have been a great start to the week for all involved with Tyrone GAA - past, present and future, if the legend that is Jodie Gormley hadn't had passed away so quickly. A true legend of the GAA and an even better person.

Errigal Ciaran beat Kilcoo last weekend to be crowned Ulster champions for the first time since 2002. 
The Tyrone champions have taken the scenic route to glory, as their county final was postponed due to a storm, which meant that they had to play it just a week before the Ulster championship began. 
Due to the fact that Errigal were drawn to compete in the preliminary round of the provincial competition, it means that they have played more games at that level, than anyone else in Ulster. 
You would think after such a long season, and an All-Ireland semi-final just around the corner from Christmas waiting for them, that the Ballygawley men could put the feet up and relax for a little while. 

However, the blue and white jerseys will be out in force again this Sunday as they play Carrickmore in a league semi-final play-off. 
Because of the way that the divisional structures work in the Red Hand county, the play-offs to compete in the league final take place when all of the qualified teams are no longer competing in the championship. However, the blue and white jerseys will be out in force again this Sunday as they play Carrickmore in a league semi-final play-off.

Normally this isn't too much of an issue, as Errigal are actually the only Tyrone team to win Ulster in the county's history, and it's been 22 years since they last achieved that. 
The fixtures need to be filled nonetheless, and this Sunday Enda McGinley will line his players out once again, against a team who have not played a competitive match in 11 weeks.
Speaking at Tyrone's annual convention last Tuesday, county chairman Martin Sludden did raise the issue.
"Play-offs, whether it be for promotion, relegation or play-offs for Div 1 league are proving difficult to get played whilst teams are still in the club championship.
"I thank the clubs for their patience during this period, especially the clubs who are waiting to play.
"I welcome the motions this evening from Dromore and Carrickmore. Hopefully this will generate discussion within our clubs to seek a better way forward."
Last year, county champions Trillick made it to the semi-final stages of Ulster after beating Crossmaglen in the quarter-finals, and didn't finish their league campaign until the 10th of December, beating Carrickmore in the Division One final.
It was a historic double for the club, and with the run that Errigal are on at the moment, they might just do the same, although there is no denying that they have bigger days out to prepare for in the immediate future.

was a decision made on the Division 3 split at the convention?

I see there is a planning proposal submitted for a swimming pool and ancillary facilities at the Derrylaughan GAA grounds. not sure if this is associated with the club itself. But if so then the Barry's are going above and beyond.

Have Errigal had much to say on the matter? I suppose they'll be looking a few matches over the coming weeks anyway so might be good to get a competitive one like this under their belt.

Already happening. Going by the convention one of Dromore's two recommendations for Senior and Intermediate or another variation will come into effect. CCC to meet with clubs in January but some restructure or reformat will be coming.
