I wouldn't be at all surprised if the wee gabshite is back within 6 weeks.

'Please dont block our driveways with ye're horse and carts, ok.'

There you go, I never realised that all those twee postcards we used to buy on holidays down in 'the home of football' were actually of Tyrone people delivering turf to the little people of Kerry ... where did I put me pot of gold, where's me pot of gold...

After that bruising affair last night (Geezer has well and truly stamped his mark on this particular Kildare team), one thing's certain, we need a massive step-up for this one. Although we restricted Kildare to 5 scores, they had twice as many again very scorable opportunities that they squandered, and we won't be let off as forgivingly in this one.

Tyrone will find it hard going against a very strong Kerry outfit.

They can't be that strong if an injury ravaged Donegal beat them.

Did you not see the game - Kerry full back was sent off in 1st half - Kerry were up by two with seconds left - Mc Fadden lobbed a high ball in with last kick and Donegal scored a goal - Donegal couldn't believe it -

Hardly much point in him coming home for a Munster game against either Waterford or Clare now. Tell him he's ok for another few weeks after that.

Shure d'extra training would be handy. He'll probably put on a couple of stone in America.

No doubt he'll still be listed in the program at 10 stone.

I see your obsession with Kerry continues Tyrones own...

Tyrones own · February 04, 2008, 08:01:32 PM

No not at all Mikey, just wanted to draw you and since i succeeded
could you maybe ask someone that was at the game why he was sent off
and get back to me. Honestly, for the good of the game i hope it wasn't that auld cynical stuff,
it's horrible to watch!

Fairly important game for Tyrone here in terms of this years league. A loss and they'd be travelling to Galway for the next game with a potential relegation battle on the cards. A win and I suppose you could start to think about being contenders for the top 2 positions again. After Tyrones performance last week Kerry would have to be strong favourites going into this one. Even though its early in the season Im sure there'll be a high tempo to the game and it is likely to be fairly physical. A decent home support for Kerry's 1st home game can be expected.

Tyrone went down last year with low expectations and managed to get a draw and Im sure a lot of players will be out to prove that theyre better than they looked against Kildare. I cant see any of our big names who missed last week being back (not sure about McMenamin though), although Mugsy is likely to start. If Tyrone's free taking deosnt improve we'll have no chance - need to see an improvement from McCullagh and Id like to see Mulgrew tried with the one's on the other side.

Kerry seemed to dominate the Donegal game and will have another 2 weeks training behind them which should bring them on a little. I presume the Kerry team will be something similar to the last one with Tomas O'Se possibly starting. Kerry dont seem to keen to use Donaghy at full forward during the league so wouldnt be suprised if he operated further out the field.

whinging about Kerry, whinging about Kildares "roughouse" tactics....whinge, whinge. The season is only one weekend old and
the Tymoan bies are already in overdrive.

Seriously, chill out and get a life. its only the national league.
