All Ireland u21 football championship 2015

[Rossfan]

By the way lads, it would seem that the gentleman who took ill at half-time has sadly passed away.

Sorry to hear that. RIP.
Meanwhile it seems because the cynical Tyrones are amateurs we're not supposed to criticise them, especially if we're from Roscommon.
Pity to see it at U21 level but there you go .......

[rrhf]

So proud of those Tyrone lads.  Commiserations to tipp who played their part in a truly absorbing contest.  Been at a lot if under 21 finals and enjoyed that more than any.

Some of the stuff that is being said about the Tyrone team and tactics are incredible.

Well done Tyrone.

Conditions were brutal bad.

[GlenMan]

Well done Tyrone, they won doing what Tyrone teams have been doing for the past dozen years so the rest of the country cant say we did not know what was coming, Tipp were no angels either but they have a lot to learn if they are going to take Tyrone on at that game, so to give Tyrone their full dues WHAT A GREAT CYNICAL CHEATING DIRTY FOOTBALLING TEAM THEY ARE. These young men are a credit to their families community parish club and county, ye should all be proud of the way ye prepared these young men to represent ye, CONGRATS.

Don't have a hissy fit! No cheating done. Yes they are a credit to the County and Club's. Tipperary were fouling across the field because they couldn't match Tyrone's pace. And after 65 minutes of football, Tipp still hadn't responded to the short kick out.

That Irish times report lol:

"Roscommon v Tyrone Tyrone's Ulster title was long overdue, their first in eight seasons after a run of five titles in seven years. Their star names are on the sideline, with Peter Canavan and Brian Dooher backing up Fergal Logan, as well as S&C coach Peter Donnelly who has now won five Ulster titles in a row with Cavan and Tyrone. They look to have their work cut out here against a Rossies side dripping with talent, however. Enda Smith and Diarmuid Murtagh are the obvious stand-outs with Cathal Daly and Ultan Harney throwing into the pot as well. Should be theirs to lose. Verdict: Roscommon"

Well done Tyrone! When some begrudgers and some sour grapes appear you know you are doing well. Well done Feargal. Also big shout for Tipperary who deserve credit too

[Throw ball]

I hope the reports on the spectator are wrong. Really puts football into perspective.

As for the match it is a pity the weather robbed us of any chance of a proper game of football. On saying that Tyrone's training facilities at Garvaghy - up in the hills- obviously gave them an advantage dealing with tough windy conditions. Added to this the streams of water would obviously be more suited to a team used to diving.

On the game itself I did not think there was much between the teams with Tyrone coming through because they were a bit cuter. I pointed out before how many black and red cards they had got in the Ulster championship and their ruthlessness was needed to get them over the line today. On saying that their corner back who was sent off today appears to be one of their more level headed players. McShane is obviously a very good player and seems to be in a mould suited to their senior team. O'Riordan from Tipp though is a player I wish was from Armagh.

As for the stamp. I saw it a few times and could not decide if it was deliberate or not. The player gets the benefit of the doubt.

Cathal Daly was Archbishop of Armagh 20 odd years ago. I wonder was he related to Conor Daly?

[omagh_gael]

Roscommon lad (no 6?) in semi firing elbows and Tipp man tonight doing McShane. Tipp foul count 50 mins in was 16 and Tyrone 11. Imagine a team upping the cynical stakes in last ten mins of the biggest game of their career, you'd never see that in other sports would you? Thon poor gassuns down the country are shocking unlucky, ah shure there's always next year.

You should be ashamed of that post.

These young men are proud to represent their county as are the other players from their respective counties. Thankfully most other posters on this Board can voice their opinions without insulting the players or their families. Maybe you should back away from the keyboard for a while and sober up.

[time ticking away]

That football from Tyrone today was truly horrible stuff to watch, if that's a sign of the style of play this management team favour then their senior team would do well to steer clear cos it makes Mickey Hartes tactics appear almost cavalier. Shocking performance by the ref also who raped Tipp with some decisions that were crucial in such a tight game. The team with the better players lost.

Some people don't know what to be at ...
You criticise the management and then go on to say that the team with the better players lost. If the team with the worst players win then the management must be excellent. Fool.
Also the under 21s play a much better tactical game than the seniors do in my opinion, they actually play forwards at no.10 and no.12 and when they turn the ball over in their defence they then break at pace. Mickey could learn a lot fron the under 21 management

Raméis. They were the better team today just like they were the better team against us. They were able to break at pace and also were able to create goal chances and scored a bloody good one to turn the game in their favour. Those lads dug deep to get that victory today and should be congratulated and not the verbal equivalent of being spat at. Let's not turn into a county of Pat Spillanes.

[Itchy]

A county of Pat Spillanes.... Scary.

[AZOffaly]

Congrats to Tyrone. It was tight and could have gone either way, but the goal was obviously the crucial score. This Tipp team have great heart though and I wasn't surprised they were right in it at the death, and had the opportunities for a draw or even to win. A replay would probably have been the fairest result as you could see both teams were struggling with the conditions, and Tipp carrying the ball was a bit ropey when It was as slick as it seemed last night.

Tipp will rue a couple of bad decisions and poor mistakes, including missed frees, but that's life and that's football. Important to learn from it, and I'm 100% sure they will. Tipp are going to be around for the long haul, trying to break into that top echelons and this is only a step on the way.

Well done again Tyrone, some fine players on that team.

GiveBallaghBack undoubtedly has never kicked a competitive ball in his life. It takes a certain level of spinelessness to make a post like his most recent contribution. His family and parish are undoubtedly proud of his anonymous cowardice.

Whatever about Tyrone & their tactics, at least they put serious work in, gave everything for the cause & were out there for all to see.

You on the other hand are a disgrace to your county, club, family & most of all to yourself for a post like that.

The very definition of a troll.
