Seemed to be a genuine bitterness and hatred in the crowd today at the match. An awful lot of booing refereeing decisions at the match today and the camera caught a Kerry fan giving the fingers to Tyrone supporters after the match, the media have helped create this monster and I genuinely fear that some of these games will result in someone getting hurt. Witness Kerry v Mayo semi final last year and the Mayo fan attempting to attack the ref.

He was only trying to get across the pitch to the burger van.
If you were any use you'd be playing.

This is still a coming Kerry team, nobody had say they were great, and will be about for a number of years, Donaghy and Cooper lose in the coming year will be big but they been here before with previous greats. Having 2 serious minor teams to pick from will bring through the needed players in the next 5yrs epsecially the amount of great forwards coming through

Tyrone fans have a massive element of their support who like to boo decisions, cheer opposition wides/cards and generally behave like soccer loving reprobates. I picked up on it at the QF v Monaghan and also last year in February in the McKenna Cup in Omagh so it's not like it can be blamed on the bandwagon. Kerry obviously have a few of their own louts who also add to the occasion!

Kerry fans don't take defeat to well. But in fairness they are gracious in victory (some fans aren't). But in defeat they are a different animal (to quote Paudi).  The media have nothing to do with it.

Glad Kerry won today, not because i hate Tyrone. Because if we beat Dublin, I want to play them in the final. We have their number and I want a shot at them.

Yeah, my Mayo cousin was just on to me and he reckons ye will make bits of them in the final.

I'd agree with that. Tyrone have a fair element of this type of support. Kerry too are very bad losers and have an air of entitlement about them.

Could easily have won that game. Missed frees and McCrory's contribution killed us. Deegan didn't help.

But I'd say Kerry marginally the better side. Fine game.

Agree with that. Those 2 black card decisions were wrong. Having said that he showed guts to black card o'se early, so he obviously felt he was right on the other two.

The penalty I'm not sure about. I think the lad went down too easy but Kerry looked like they had grabbed him a couple of times. A 50-50 one I'd say.

The tackle on Cooper surely was a red card too.

Ye have their number? Funny way of showing it 😄 if you mean you think ye have finally cracked the Kerry puzzle I might agree with you. I don't think Kerry beats either Dublin or Mayo in the final.

Knowledgeable Lad/Lady that cousin of yours!  ;)

The same Tyrone lads that still go on about the fair shoulder that Canavan got off big John Mac in '96 won't say a word about McNabb's attempted decapitation of the Gooch today.
