So who are we saying is in this year?

J Clarke
Callum Daly
R McCullagh (all confirmed)


Oisin McCann
Dalaigh Jones
Michael Conroy
Niall McCarney
Conor Cush?

McCarney is an interesting one. Definitely would give us a target man in at full forward. I know he's not playing the highest level at his club but he seems to have been going well this year.

We need different options rather than the same type of players. Guys like Fullerton and Jordan probably deserve a call up solely based on their form but don't really see them giving us anything we don't already have with the Canavans, McCurry, McElhom, McCullagh etc

Is McCarney definitely involved? I hadn't heard that reliably

Think he's fourth from left on the charity fundraiser image posted on Saturday

The fund raiser was organized by a Drumragh teammate.
There were a lot of Drumragh men there

Would Clogher be a small club in terms of playing numbers, membership etc?

4th smallest football club in the county, going by 2024 figures
Divisions if sorted by total membership would be;

The Loughshore is interesting, Are any of Ardboe, Moortown, Derrylaughan, Brocagh or Derrytresk in the same parish ?
Ardboe has more registered youth members than the others put together.
Is it that much bigger than the other catchment areas ?

In the air tonight.. This song takes me back to a a time when Sonny and Crocket were fighting the good fight in Miami, but the main memory was a 12 hour roller skating night for charity and that song felt as if it was on all night!

Against all odds, cracking song, film never lived up to the song though, considering the stars in it

I wish it would rain down, another classic. what an singer

Others of note

Land of confusion

groovy kind of love

Take me home
Don't lose my number
Healing hands

Faughanvale have a new manager sorted

There once was a musical troupe
A pickin' singin' folk group
They sang the mountain ballads
And the folk songs of our land
They were long on musical ability
Folks thought they would go far
But political incompatibility led to their downfall

Well, the one on the right was on the left
And the one in the middle was on the right
And the one on the left was in the middle
And the guy in the rear was a Methodist

This musical aggregation toured the entire nation
Singing the traditional ballads
And the folk songs of our land
They performed with great virtuosity
And soon they were the rage
But political animosity prevailed upon the stage

Well, the one on the right was on the left
And the one in the middle was on the right
And the one on the left was in the middle
And the guy in the rear burned his driver's license

Well the curtain had ascended
A hush fell on the crowd
As thousands there were gathered to hear the folk songs of our land
But they took their politics seriously
And that night at the concert hall
As the audience watched deliriously
They had a free-for-all

Well, the one on the right was on the bottom
And the one in the middle was on the top
And the one on the left got a broken arm
And the guy on his rear, said, "Oh dear"

Now this should be a lesson if you plan to start a folk group
Don't go mixin' politics with the folk songs of our land
Just work on harmony and diction
Play your banjo well
And if you have political convictions keep them to yourself

Now, the one on the left works in a bank
And the one in the middle drives a truck
The one on the right's an all-night deejay
And the guy in the rear got drafted

3. I still miss someone
2. A thing called love
1. One piece at a time

also love "The one on the right is on the left"

The tyrone club football / hurling thread.

A few lads doing a bit of attention seeking.
I wish they would just text each other

Look up his duet with Tracey Chapman on youtube of Fast Car. Like a Hurricane also a great tune

Another weekend of senior championship, Anyone new impressing?

Getting Cathal Donaghy a run at wing forward during the league should be high up on Malachy's agenda. Has all the attributes to push himself into that position ahead of Oguz and Ben McDonnell.
Ruairi McCullagh strikes me as our replacement for McCurry in the not too distant future - very similar players and always rack up big scores.
Joey Clarke another worth a call up - be a good option in the corner or at wing back.

That Tiktokers brother in corner back for lough is decent. Joey clarke a shoe in for a call up.

Would donaghey suit the half forward role at county level? Good player all the same.

Some conveyor belt coming through at youth. Tyrone must have the best youth coaches of anyone in the country to be constantly producing all ireland winners, its crazy to think of it

Would the clubs and schools not be responsible for most of the coaching of young lads,

Or maybe that is what you mean

Is Sean Young still under 20 ?
Odhran Campbell seemed to do well on him last night

G been watching, since the Raiders won in 1984.

Marcus Allen is/was a legend

Jesus Christ any opportunity to have a girn. Focus on the quarters/semis lads it's not all about the county

4 best teams in the semis of that there can be little doubt

Would Lsvey be 5th best ?

What has become of Shay O'Harr this last 12 months. His development has stagnated. He was deemed the best footballer in Ireland under the age of 20 but now looks broken.

I've seen Errigal twice this year and Joe Oguz was immense both times. Looks very physical and driven. He was the same last year in Errigals run, he has really responded to Enda Mcginley.

Yeah he is excellent. His time with the county panel has helped him immensely.
