But sure according to you, teams were using the same tactics as what he brought into the game up until these new changes were implemented. Hardly left behind.
Derry was always a bad fit. For both sides. Louth improved under his watch, Offaly will too. He's still a good manager. That hasn't changed.

Agreed.. Find it astonishing that a Tyrone man would continously slag the man off, 3 AI's ffs #brollylite I suppose

The Trap

Best manager since 2000
Mickey Harte took tyrone from 0 to 3 all irelands in 5 years playing superb football. 2005 final was one of the best games ever.

Captain Obvious

No Tyrone man with a ounce of common sense would slag off Mickey Harte. Zero Senior All Ireland titles won before he changed that and made household names out of players. Even the last AI title was the team that Harte built.   The chap on here needs to change his username to bullshitsayer

Lets be honest mickey went off the boil after 2011. He managed one of the best tyrone teams ever, he was innovative. After 2011 he became obsessed with proving everyone wrong that a defensive based system was beneficial.

He stuck to a flawed system which resulted in mark Bradley being left up the field alone being marked by 3 dublin men in 2018 final.

If you say the 2021 team was mickeys then you have to say the 2003 team was Arthurs.

Mickey was a great man in the 00s but failed to adapt

Yet he's still winning league titles wherever he goes. He might have taken too long to adapt but to say he still hasn't is silly in my opinion

Aye league titles is about where he's at compared to those days. All managers go past their sell by dates.. it happens... Cody.. Mick O'Dwyer said he should have quit earlier. Harte is 70! The game at top level has passed him by. Not denying his achievements back in '00s were brilliant.

At which point does it pass you by? Are 70 year olds unable to grow with the game or does their brain not allow them to keep up with new demands/developments?
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought.

I don't know when it passes you by but it does as you get older... tell me the managers up the years that maintained at the highest level. You don't be as sharp, same as sports that don't require physical fitness... darts, snooker... show me examples that disprove that.

Would say Larry Brown in 04 was up there when his Pistons won. Bruce Arians and Bill Belichick would both be mid to late 60s when they won the super bowl. What age would Fergie have been in 2012? Late 60s too?

thebigfullforward

Right so what's the rule there then? Armagh U20 got punished for doing the exact same thing Kerry did there. Both players walked back with didn't they? So why was one of them called and the other wasn't?

Truthsayer

That Cork-Kerry game nails the myth that new rules have ruined the game. Brilliant- Pure drama!

Is this what people really want? Utter incompetence from teams and referees glorified because it's dramatic? Lowest common denominator for idiots.

That game ended up close. The football played was, by and large, disgracefully bad.

Yeah, people like to be entertained.
