No away supporters in so it should be hell for them. Especially important to start with intensity to get the crowd rocking.
Then nick an early goal.

Do you know why?Quote from: clarshack on April 21, 2024, 05:13:27 PMAnother example of Tyrone being refereed differently again. How can one be a yellow card and the other black?
Did you see the whole incident or just what we seen on the telly?
I only seen what the telly showed, as did most? My thinking is the the Tyrone man pulled him to the ground and what we seen was the grabbing each about on TV
In this case the black card should have been to the cavan player. You see Paudie on his hands and knees with the cavan player standingover him preventing him from getting up. Thats a black card for impending a player. Paudie then struggles to get up and when he does he drags him down.
Both were at it and both deserved a yellow.
Quote from: thewobbler on March 31, 2024, 08:27:48 PMThe biggest problem with Gaelic football is the endless recycling of the ball around midfield areas.
The second biggest problem is that even when we are served up an absolute classic of a match, the majority of comments are about the refereeing.
Lane had neither a good nor a bad game today, certainly not one worthy of lengthy conjecture. He could have awarded a 13m instead of a penalty, nobody would have complained. He could have black carded Shane McGuigan, with 3 mins remaining, and you could see from McGuigan's eyes that he was expecting one. He could have went easier on Fenton but on balance he refereed that passage of play correctly, including the red card. He made a blooper for Dublin's equaliser no doubt. But balance that up with the fact that he facilitated a brilliant, brilliant game of sport.
Leave him alone.
Leave refs alone.

The league only matters in D2 because of the Sam MaguireQuote from: seafoid on March 12, 2024, 08:41:46 PMQuote from: Blowitupref on March 12, 2024, 08:39:31 PMThere would be less matches. Currently D1 games are meaningless.Quote from: seafoid on March 12, 2024, 07:39:44 PMMichael Foley in the Sunday Times said that the current system is not the final system and that eventually it will be the provincials first with the League and championship combined
An opinion piece by a journalist or be a good journalist. For that to happen it needs to be voted in by congress and the current system changed. Provincial championship under that system would become pre-season competitions with 2nd string teams in action and small crowds in attendance.
Don't think they are meaingless. First and foremost every team wants to retain their Div 1 status. Don't believe the theory that no team wants to reach the final, once in it a national title is there to be won.
Quote from: Wildweasel74 on March 07, 2024, 03:39:24 PMI remember Faughanvale win 3 out 4 intermediate championships in the 90's ,they weren't biting at the bullet to go onto senior like Glemullin, as they knew what happen to them.

Heard he was in the crowd with his kids at the Derry v Dublin game.
Don't see the issue, man should be allowed to get on with his life rather than every time he leaves the house it being reported
Oh no issue at all, not what I was getting at. I just thought it was interesting that he'd go to a Derry game and I personally wonder does he still have aspirations there.
100% should be able to get on with things, I've said from the start of the whole episode that no-body should be judged based on someone elses social media posts.

Quote from: J70 on February 27, 2024, 05:31:16 PMQuote from: thewobbler on February 27, 2024, 10:12:11 AMDerryman forever, it's not a cheap shot at all.
This board goes back forever and a day.
Look at threads on rule changes from the early noughties and it's Donegal ones saying there's nothing wrong with the game. Look at the late noughties threads and it's all Dublin ones telling us that we should get better at football instead of trying to change the rules. The past few years it's Derry wans telling us that football is as good to watch now as it ever was.
With all due respect, I don't think people from your county are currently objective about the state of Gaelic Football. This isn't a criticism of Derry btw... you folks didn't create this mess and it's absolute credit that instead of whinging about it, you've caught up.
But football is shite. Absolute shite. That's our sport and it's absolute shite.
We were, but in our defense, it wasn't an obvious certainty (at least to me early on!) that the game would evolve in the manner in did following Jim's lead. I think back to our thrilling semis against Cork and Dublin, when they played open and allowed us to annihilate them on the break. By the 2016 Ulster Final, the writing was on the wall for me (that was like a pair of slow, giant sumo wrestlers going at it, rescued for Tyrone in injury time by three worldie points) and its only gotten worse. When we held the ball for the last 90 seconds of normal time in the 2022 Ulster Final, instead of trying to go for the winning score, I was pretty much done.
I read Jarlath's interview on GAA.ie and his plans for a root and branch look at how the game is played. Hope he succeeds, because I'm finding it hard to even watch Donegal these days. Aside from the freak of nature that is David Clifford, how many GAA stars could be considered among the top sports people in the country? As Burns alludes to when talking about skillful forwards being basically rendered obsolete, without his physique to go with his incredible skillset, would even Clifford be up there?

A fist only rule needs bringing in. A player will be blown up if he palmed the ball in open play , so why are they allowed to palm the ball into the net?
I said...

Automatic custodial sentence.
Fines starting at £1000 for verbal abuse and upwards
If you're on any sort of benefits you automatically lose them.
Should carry a very high punishment. Absolutely no call for it.
Force them to go out and get a job, that will fairly put the frighteners on them.
Really worry for society at times, for every pair of scum bags that get together and have wains they are raising people with the same morals and sense of entitlement when it comes to benefits, housing and relationship with work or lack of.
Quote from: clarshack on December 02, 2023, 07:19:14 PMQuote from: Rawhide on December 02, 2023, 05:56:55 PMBrolly, a guy who gave away his kidney, does literally copious amounts of charity gigs, goes to club events up and down the country for nothing, and we have gaels slating because he has a opinion that some of you don't like or agree with. The whole essence of being a barister is strongly putting across your opinion. And that's the bit that gets under your skin. The difference between brolly and McGregor is night and day.
His charity work or whatever doesn't excuse his outrageous outbursts over the year's especially the one towards Sean Cavanagh 10 years ago. He should have been booted from RTE at that point. Did Sean Cavanagh go running to solicitors?
Quote from: DuffleKing on December 02, 2023, 05:23:57 PMThe usual from Brolly. Abuse and denegrade people and everyone should take it as a joke. When he gets it back, then running for the solicitor.
Absolutely no fan of McGregor but unlike ordinary folk, the threat of being sued won't cow him in any way. Like most bullies in these types of scenarios, the legal threat will end up nonsense.
