Donegal score a penalty, 2-8 to 1-3. Commentary team seemed very doubtful about penalty award.

Devenney probably took an extra step or two in the buildup, but it was a definite foul.

Any comments on Tyrone performance? Were they terrible or were Donegal that good? any positives?

FT Donegal 2-11 Tyrone 1-8.

I didnt see the penalty incident J70 but the fact that the very pro-Donegal Radio Highland commentary team didnt think it was a penalty was interesting Didnt sound like Tyrone were at the races anyway though.

Disappointing defeat and leaves us with a bit of work to do to secure a place in Division 1 for next season. Sounded like the midfield of Donnelly and Kelvin Hughes struggled to make any real impact there tonighst. On the positive side Dooher got a full game under his belt and got a good point at the end.
A lot of people were saying a couple of weeks back how hard it was going to be for Mickey to pick a panel....should be bit easier after the last couple of games.

Nice revenge for the McKenna Cup defeat, but Tyrone were missing Kavanagh, Mulligan and McGuigan. Good performances all over the field, particularly in the second quarter when the match was won. Very encouraging when you can bring on the likes of Toye, Doherty and Leon Thompson as subs, with men like Michael Hegarty and Eamon McGee left in reserve. The return of Devenney and McFadden has been vital though, and the two of them were excellent tonight.

Kerry up next, with Limerick and Fermanagh to follow. Division 1 status secured. Happy days (for now anyway!).

I saw it on the Setanta coverage. No doubt in my mind. At least two defenders brought him down just as he was about to lay it off. The ref was a couple of yards away.

And yes, Tyrone were awful!

Is the Kerry game home or away to Donegal?

Kerry and Fermanagh are home games for Donegal. Limerick is away.

Donegal are defintely dark horses for ulster this year. back to back league defeats for Tyrone. when was the last time this happened?

[Goats Do Shave]

You would expect the Donegal men to win against Fermanagh & Limerick! Kerry will be tough, but Donegal will have home advantage...so possibly a white wash of the division this year!!??

Some turn around from the performances agaisnt Armagh & Tyrone in the McKenna cup!!!!!

Definitely the most promising Donegal squad in many years. Its a shame Tyrone and Armagh are not in the other side of the draw.
