I clicked on page 1 of this thread by mistake and got a great surprise when reading the university squads from 2006. Some great names.

Although I might not use Orange's tone I do feel a county board official should know better than to make such a comment on social media. At a time when club players have been banned for airing their views - in different counties - a board official should be more careful. As for the actual comments themselves. I do not think McKeever will lose much sleep.

Another unlikely name to go into McKeevers black book. A Tyrone county board official this time, is he a club mate of Cavanaghs? It's a snide sarcastic remark and McKeever will not be deterred in targeting Cavanagh, the size of that man you would think he would be fit to stand up for himself.

G Ticklemister wished i didnt look at pg1 its like a whos whos of where did players of great potential go, where the Hell did Joe Ireland and James Colgan go to?

Ahhh this Tyrone/Armagh slabberin is a great blast from the past. Nostalgic.

We missed you Armagh. We had to drop a level but sure isn't it great. Apple-munchin, diesel-launderin, buckfast-swillin hoors.

But Mr McKeever, what have we done to annoy you? Remember ye pulled the jumper off Canavan in '05? 
I wanna have my kicks before the whole shithouse goes up in flames.

couldn't decide, confused on players who were going to be great like Colgan to Justin McMahon who turned out good,  you can fill in the gaps, i refused to move men about like Vernon and let them fight it out for the position they were playing in at the time which was midfield. I gave McKernan, the 2 McMahons, G O`Kane, Probably J O`Kane, J Loughrey, J Bradley, M Lynch, 2 McGourty and fill in a  few other round them, you have a better time filling out a "why the hell did them not made it big" team instead

Wind Turbine would be a big earner for Tyrone GAA

A wind turbine to be built at Tyrone's training complex at Garvaghey Centre will contribute £80,000 per annum to the running costs of the complex.

The electricity generated will be used to power the centre, with the excess to be sold off to the national grid.

Delays in the project have caused frustration, but Garvaghey Management Group chairman Raymond McKeown is hoping it will soon be back on track.

"From an early stage in the development of Garvaghey, much of the thought was around sustainability of the centre when it was built.

"The pioneers came up with the idea of a wind turbine both saving us in electricity bills as well as being able to sell electricity to the grid and contribute to the inevitable net deficit," he detailed in his annual report



January 4th 2015

A major investigation has been launched after an 80-metre wind turbine worth almost half a million pounds collapsed on a mountainside in Tyrone.

No one was injured when the structure unexpectedly buckled and hit the ground, scattering debris across a wide area. It was one of eight on the Screggagh wind farm near Fintona in Co Tyrone.

I'd say McKeever will probably get the blame for this as well. Probably pulled it down with his bare arms.

McKeever is just living up to the great line of teak tough man markers from the true spiritual capital of Ireland.
He follows in the footsteps of many brawn over beauty type players where getting the ball only comes 2nd. Canavan was his first love for a few years and how it sums up the Armagh psyche that he and most Armagh fans were proud as punch that he got sent off in 2005.
Stevie ONeill was a harder but for Killer McKeever to handle and paid the ultimate price giving away the winning free in the 2005 semi. I'm sure it was another dive though. Poor Armagh have suffered a lot due to diving and could probably have overtaken Cavan in All-Irelands had it not been for diving.

So Cavanagh is his latest fancy man and Sean's temperament means he won't fall for the get me sent off shit that so many try with him.

At least McKeever is popular down the country in Laois and now Dublin. A Colourful character who will bring spice to every game who likes to make space for others around him by leaving the playing field early and often tries to take one or two others with him for an early shower.
Does anyone have stats on his red cards.
