seen at half time enda mcginley was giving hurson a touch and shaking his head, anyone know why?

That's his style. After beating Trillick the last day he still had a go at the referee afterwards, shaking his head in a similar manner. Sweetness and light comes to mind...

Going for broke to try and make up some ground...

Are we now in a place where every game and refereeing decision is under the scrutiny of post match video analysis?

The point was disallowed due to a communication between the line official and the referee. The referee has made his decision on this basis and the game concludes.

"Referees decision is final".

Now apparently it's not final and Galbally feel they have a case. I am not offering any opinion on whether that is right or wrong, Galbally feel they have a right to appeal so let that work itself out.

But where does this end? A club thinks a player should have been sent off but he wasn't, the ref sees it and issues a yellow. The player in question kicks the winning score but the subsequent video clearly shows he should have been red carded, the ref made a mistake. What now? Appeal it on the grounds the referee made a mistake?

When does a kick become a black card? Was that the same incident?

Hope to see McShane back in the county set up next year
Absolutely flying at the moment

We are blessed with options in the full forward line, but McShane has that size and athletism about him, sets him apart from many of the other optioms

Stop that. He was playing against the team with the joint worst defensive record in the league and not a single decent man marker.

In the infamous words of Arthur McRory...the next time Tyrone are playing Aghaloo...

On another note.

Why don't they just call it Division 4. Everyone knows what it is.

Division 3 / Division 3A nonsense is fooling no one.

Glenelly should just join with Clann na nGael and be done with it. It'll happen eventually anyway.

The county board will not move on this, they  see the income from Tyrone TV as guaranteed and won't want to lose it. Offering a pass of any kind will impact income.

If they even had the foresight to offer a package for each round as a test to see how it compares.

This weekend we have 8 intermediate ties, test the waters by offering a pass for all games at whatever price and see how the numbers stack up.

I said "most" and Errigal Ciaran are the exception.

Donaghmore won 4 points in the league, you can't say that is anything other than recreational. Yes they may pick up a few more players for a championship game but otherwise it's a gather up.

I would agree with the idea of playing all thirds teams in some sort of qualifying process and the winner goes into the main championship competition.

Derry have a recreational league, there is a model out there. Most of these thirds teams are glorified Dads and Lads outfits.

2 games in 42 hours in a heatwave

👏👏👏👏👏

After a 2 week break when players were encouraged to go off on holidays and relax.

It's genuinely a baffling situation.

But you are arguing clubs should play on without u20 players? Surely then, it would be ludicrous not to arrange a better senior schedule just because of a minor competition?

Play minors on the Friday night and seniors on the Wednesday if it comes to it.

I'm not suggesting that happens every week but it can be done with some sort of thinking.
