You're consistently second or third best team in the country. I don't  think there has been that much luck in it. Donegal tend to peak earlier but are definitely on the up. If mcbrearty is missing then he is possibly as big a loss as mcshane though I do think that injury has hurt his pace.

Some amount of crying by Tyrone people on here about a game that has nothing to do with them

Youse just leave the O'Byrne Cup out of this. It's one of Longford's only chance of a bit of craic.

Scrap what ye like in Ulster.

The O'Byrne Cup should be renamed the Midlands SFC.
Play the game and play it fairly
Play the game like Dermot Earley.

Don't know about other pre season competitions but there have been done great battles in the McKenna Cup in the past few years and it has been a good testing ground for the mettle of new players.

Not really but challenge games gives you chance to play on your own times agreed between the teams and you can play teams from other provinces although you wouldnt want to be travelling far this time year.

Would the challenge matches be closed to spectators, pay at the gate-first come first served or all ticket?

you don't get to charge a tenner into challenge games. This is the problem, Ulster council don't want to give up the cash they squeeze out of this Mickey mouse 'competition.'

Bonner must have really got inside Tyrone heads, Ronan McNamee has now made a statement as well as Harte. What's going on? Do Tyrone think this has devalued their treasured McKenna Cup titles?

Bonner embarrassed himself and his county. He has made himself look like a big baby.
