the anti-football excuse doesnt wash here.

i just meant that with celtic's current form being awful combined with rangers formation for the game it was going to be a poor match and it was.

didnt get to see yesterdays match but by all accounts it was brutal. no surprise really with the celts not playing well for months now and the huns reverting to their anti football formation.

PS I see in the space of two years Le Guen has transformed PSG from relegation candidates in France to league title contenders.

I always thought that if le guen was given more time he would have turned the huns around, but it was curtains for him once he dropped big bad Barry.

Look lads there;s only one way to prove whether the actions of players and/or managers crossed the line. And that is, whether or not the game was shown on the BBC/UTV news.

The words "marred" and "scuffle" will no doubt be popular this eveing.

Battle Of Omagh Part II no doubt (Part III if they count Clonoe v Dromore)

[McMenamin's goolie grabbing was funny]

McMenamin's goolie grabbing was funny. But the bawling in someone's face isnt. It's pure incitment and he should be yellow carded for it.

How is that funny?

Ricey: What do you mean I'm funny?
Orior: It's funny, you know. It's a good story, it's funny, you're a funny guy.
Ricey: what do you mean, you mean the way I talk? What?
Orior: It's just, you know. You're just funny, it's... funny, the way you tell the story and everything.
Ricey: [it becomes quiet] Funny how? What's funny about it?
Sidelinekick: Ricey no, You got it all wrong.
Ricey: Oh, oh, Sidelinekick. He's a big boy, he knows what he said. What did ya say? Funny how?
Orior: Jus...
Ricey: What?
Orior: Just... ya know... you're funny.
Ricey: You mean, let me understand this cause, ya know maybe it's me, I'm a little fucked up maybe, but I'm funny how, I mean funny like I'm a clown, I amuse you? I make you laugh, I'm here to fuckin' amuse you? What do you mean funny, funny how? How am I funny?
Orior: Just... you know, how you tell the story, what?
Ricey: No, no, I don't know, you said it. How do I know? You said I'm funny. How the f**k am I funny, what the f**k is so funny about me? Tell me, tell me what's funny!
Orior: [long pause] Get the f**k out of here, Ricey!
Ricey: [everyone laughs] Ya motherfucker! I almost had him, I almost had him. Ya stuttering p***k ya. Sidelinekick, was he shaking? I wonder about you sometimes, Orior. You may fold under questioning.

brilliant!

i thought the tyrone programme was a good publication and well worth £2. mickey harte said a few words, there were features on the centenary year in 1984, a hardworking trillick clubman got a bit of recognition, newcomers to the tyrone squad, scor, ladies football etc...

Are they handing out free *'s in Kerry today?  Starting to read like a yobbish soccer website, the amount of vitriol flying around about Ricey.  He gets in players faces, there have always been those types of players, Galvin being one.  That's part of the game.  Get over it.  

you would think reading this thread that every other county team had 15 saints playing for them. teams are successful in sport because they have the right mix. a ricey/galvin type player is part of the mix.

programmes in omagh were £2/€2 had 24 pages and only about 4 or 5 of these pages were for ads. they should have produced more programmes for todays match as i heard quite a few complaning that they were sold out early on.

[How long before Harney matures enough to get a chance? 2-3 years? Is he getting the starting spot with the u-21s this year?]

He made two brilliant saves today, which kept Tyrone in the game until the very end

Will have to look back at the tape but I think he cost us at least 1 goal and his kickouts resulted in 4-5 kerry points. His 2 saves were good, but very close range, don't know if he knew much about them.

the uuj sigerson keeper greg kelly will likely be the u-21 keeper this year.

i've no problem with ricey. he gets stuck in and annoys the sh*t out of the opposition - that's what he does and he does it well. it would be worse if he lay down and hid.

and you've zero class also condoning that type of garbage in gaelic games

ricey isnt there to be best mates with the opposing players. he gets stuck in and gives 100%.

thought swift and cassidy played well and if curran can get the kickouts sorted is a good option for keeper. thought mccullough had a shocker - missed 2 easy frees, also kicked a bad wide near the end, he continually gave the ball away and even messed up the last attack and then he had verbals with O'Connor.

[Definitely the most important game for Tyrone was 2002 against Sligo without it nothing might have happened since.]

What about the games in 02 with Armagh or Ulster Final 05?

absolutely. everything changed after this game.

would rather see mc gee in febuary than september no harm to him past his best.

Really helpful comment at this stage of the season...

Also recall many people saying the exact same thing about "Dooher" at this stage last year...

surely everyone is entitled to their opinion - whether it is right or wrong?

tinkers moving in next door

heard the teamtalk allstars banquet has been cancelled. anyone else heard this?
