Sooner we get rid of Logan & dooher the better.

Why's that ?

You haven't slept for a fortnight waiting to post that response. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Not atal, you lost the run over a victory over a terrible
Donegal side, who once again were well beat today. Crazy if you expect anything different next week away to Mayo, then Kerry (who will have be up a gear or 2 by then)

He is right though

We have better footballers than Derry for example, but they will beat us this year, handily. Why is that?

[An Watcher]

Only seen bits n pieces but galway looked as though they dominated midfield.  That was OK back in the day when we had no big lads.  Now we do have we should be doing better.  Am I being harsh as I didn't see the whole game?

Hampsey was marking Tierney for two marked kickouts in the second half when Kilpatrick, Kennedy and Oguz were all on the field.

Poor result overall. Defending and tackling in general let us down. Kennedy and Con seem too focused on stopping the opposition players from winning the kickout rather than winning it themselves. Amount of fouls they do generally on kick outs is silly.

However in saying the above tyrone had about 3 very good goal chances and didn't take any of them due to poor handling. Same as roscommon game. They could have easily won both those games.

I hope these issus will sort themselves out in the better weather.

I'll bite. Why do you think that? I certainly don't see any evidence of that.

This imo swung the game, galway got 2 or 3 scores off that and it lifted them to see the game out, where Tyrone absolutely butchered 3 point scoring chances with nice build up play (sludden, hampsey and canavan) at the start of the 2nd half which would have i think given them momentum to go ahead. Some of the shot selections was shocking but don't think it was a bad performance as strange as that sounds

This while Kennedy was moved to full forward. Still not sure about Kennedy at this level tbh.

Like when Harte was manager I wouldn't be getting too carried away at this time of year either way. Two years ago when Tyrone won the All Ireland they were poor enough in the league despite making the semi finals. I would still be concerned though as we never got going last year at all and are playing close to our full 15.

The team are getting out worked, out fought and out ran against any kind of decent opposition. In all the defeats this year they have played against the wind in the first half (and are choosing to when get the chance). They are then entering the game with a real negative mindset and trying to slow everything down and waste time in the first half. This is summed up by the constant back passing to Morgan who then holds it for as long as possible. They are afraid to shoot against the wind and happy to go in behind. Then in the second half they are having to chase the game. If they'd been clinical in the first 15 minutes of it in both games they would probably have won the matches. But instead they've had to continue to chase it and then leaving huge gaps at the back.

Compare the way we played against the wind to both Roscommon and Galway. They ran at pace right down the heart of the Tyrone defence scoring far more than we did against it. Our play is so much slower and so predictable with everything going wide and recycled. We also have to show a lot more fight and hunger to win primary possession in the middle. As someone else said we are playing big midfielders but getting cleaned out in the air.

I think he means the players there have the potential to play better than they current are. History would show that most of these plays have a AI already, and have a history of making the AI's semi's on a regular basis. Derry have a bit of work to prove they are better. Especially considering they are in D2.
For what it's worth, I think Tyrone's squad is stronger too. But badly out of form. Something the managers should be concerned with.

Doogan not up to it.

Get Malachy O'Rourke lined up for next year.

[Under Lights]

Get Malachy O'Rourke lined up for next year.

Mark Harte lined up next.

That would be my choice too, but it would be a bit of a shift in policy. I dont believe Tyrone have ever had an outside manager, even if O'Rourke has lived longer in Ballygawley than he ever did in Fermanagh
