Tyrone County Football and Hurling

[southtyronegael]

I think Colm cavanaghs playing career is probably over although he would be a good man to have at training etc to show new/younger lads what is expected of them to play for Tyrone. As for harte, thankfully he is louths problem now.

You mean in a selector type role?

[skeog]

Couldnt see Colm up around Garvaghey anytime soon mentoring young lads.

no, not as selector. I mean part of the panel and actually doing the training with a chance of coming on in a few games. Say what you want about both cavanaghs but they have an exemplary attitude to work and commitment in a Tyrone jersey.

Could southtyronegael have been colm or sean all along

Cavanagh is done as a starter but we do have major problems in midfield. If he would be willing to come back as a 15 minute option at the end to help close games out then he could contribute but I think management are better concerned looking to the future.

If there is a midfielder we should be looking at bringing in to the county setup then that is Paudie McNulty. Any word on why McNulty isn't involved, management decided to go with other options of did he turn down a recall?

Don't really know much regarding the rumours but Cavanagh was one of Harte's first names on the teamsheet up until he quit. Personally I think players expecting public proclamations of gratitude is a bit vain, I think there's a much better look when players go quietly. I actually don't recall James Horan coming out and saying much with regard all the Mayo retirements in the last few weeks. It looks like the usual slabberers like trailer coming out and spreading nonsense to push their agenda.

Cavanagh was a great servant to Tyrone over the years, an example of a player who really worked on his game and turned in from being a much maligned player who bore the brunt of fans frustrations to being one of Tyrone's key men and a real leader. I would say Cavanagh if anything should be very grateful to Harte who stuck by him during those early years when he was lambasted for picking him.

Is mcnulty not 28/29, married, young family, family chip shop business.  Not conducive to county football although the split season certainly makes things a bit easier but still an awful lot to commit to. I imagine he was at least invited to join/trial by the new management. Suppose county football isn't the be all and end all for everyone.

Need to concentrate on Kennedy and kilpatrick in midfield. Two men I think will improve with more exposure to county football. They're the best we've got anyway IMO

Would Richie Donnelly not be the most established of the midfielders?

Richie is a fine footballer but you'd have to worry about his legs in the middle of the field against the likes of Dublin. He's also one not a natural midfielder either. In saying that I'd probably partner him with Kennedy when we resume but I think that says more about our midfield options than anything else.

[God14]

Ritchie is that injury prone, you couldn't really rely on him.
As said earlier on the thread I think Kennedy and Kilpatrick deserve a good run at it in the league. They are the pick of what's available to us at the moment, and both should improve with a run of games

Is Ben Mcdonnell part of the panel?

Colm C is back guys. Has been included in one of the training bubbles i am led to believe

Massive if true and says everything we needed to know about Harte and his reign of terror.

This isn't even a discussion. Colm Cavanagh owes Mickey a lot more than Mickey owes him. This narrative that is being spun is comical.

Cold is a solid addition. Good experience and wise head. Don't think it will be in a starting capacity mind you.

Reign of terror such shite. You like 90% of this group would of roaded colm cavanagh from the squad in them first 5 years and so would other managers as he was rubbish. Since 2013 on he has been excellent and mickey stood by him some would say developed him. As for him coming back into the county panel if true worst thing to happen. Finished at that level. Only role he can play is the role mickey made for him and got him 2 all stars from but he's forgot that.  I hope  ew management's game plan is different and if it is no room for him

Reign of Terror?  When did the reign start?  2003?  Or before?

Anyone listen to Ronan O Neill on TTM interview last night?

Thought it was a good listen. He openly said he wants a run at number 11 this year with Tyrone and feels that is his best position. He said he had been played there in all the trial games by the new managers also. Also said over lockdown he was training twice a day and has lost a stone and a half and is in the best shape he has ever been in.

Reckon he has a chance at making a name for himself in the 11 jersey? Or do you think there's more chance of him being a sub/bit part plyer as per the last few years?
