Dublin v Tyrone

[ONeill]

There's bound to be some way we can delay the throw in for 5 hours so O'Neill can start.

Are there still any tickets left or is it all a sell out??

[realredhandfan]

What about a sit down protest during the sawdoctors. lads Ive found my pub in London I believe Im drinking in a place called Covent Garden - an Irish pub with setanta.  Lets hope that Tyrone do the business and forkinknife gets to the skylon for 7 00PM. Have a good un.

I'l be watching from The Heritage Bar in Yonkers New york!! Cant feckin wait!

I could be wrong but heard that in terms of attendance  the dublin tyrone match will the biggest sporting advent in the world during the weekend,even more than the superbowl on sunday night which will have a crowd of 75,000!!

If this is true its amazing that the league match, which is only the second tier competition in football can attract such a crowd given its the first round and not even a final!
I know the major attraction is because its underlights but even still!!

Not necessarily the biggest sporting crowd. It'll be a very close call anyway, Twickenham is also sold out AFAIK and it has a capacity of 82,000 while Croker has an extra 500. We'll have to wait for official confirmation before we can decide it It's still no mean feat for a national league game though!

[lynchbhoy]

looking forward to it lads

what time are we singing GSTQ (as practice for the rugby)

Lynchboy you generally don't sing a different nations anthem 

a lot wont be singing a different nations anthem
(I dont even mean tyrone here!)

sure half of them rugby boyos wouldnt either know the difference or would be quite adept of happy to sing it anyway

its a nice wee ditty and tune to it though

Will anyone be recording the game on DVD and could send me a copy?  If so I'll swap it for any of my Tyrone DVDs which go back to the 1986 ulster game v Cavan! PM me if you'd be happy to do a swap!  cheers

Croke's lights are ready to shine,
The Saw Doctors are doing fine,
Will Mugsy explode?
Show Dublin the road?
Or will Brogan catch fire, the swine!

[never kickt a ball]

As for the game on Saurday I will wait to see what team Tyrone put out before making any predictions. Tyrone posters on here dont seem to be aware of the fact that Tyrones team on Saturday night will apparently be drawn from their McKenna cup panel - some of the potential teams have included Justin McMahon.

TYRONE: P McConnell; R McMenamin, C McGinley, M McGee; D Harte, D Carlin, M Penrose; M Murphy, S Cavanagh; R Mulgrew, O Mulligan, C Cavanagh; R Mellon, C Donnelly, E McGinley.

Subs: J Curran, B Boggs, P Donnelly, C Gormley, N Gormley, Kelvin Hughes, Kevin Hughes, C McCarron, D McCaul, C McCullagh, T McGuigan, Justin McMahon, P Quinn, P Rouse, D Treanor.

With much fanfare and expectant delights
Tyrone and the Dubs come to turn on the lights
There'll be plenty to talk about and little aggro
As there's no Dooher or the bould Whelo

But what'll we do to raise a right cheer
As all the capital's fans will stay on the beer
With the Sawdoctors singing to themselves alone
There'll be lights on but nobody home

At 15 minutes gone there's to be a mighty rush
Up to the turnstiles like cattle to a crush
As they mill in and push on through
The Hill will belt out You boys in blue

Expectations as the match starts to flow
The ground will light up and sway as they go
T'will all hinge on a bit of flash
As Mugsy feigns left and gives it a lash

Its all over now and Croker is left black
And next comes O'Driscoll and the foreign attack
But what's to be feared of t'is only a game
Sure they only killed Hogan and its only a name
