Tyrone County Football and Hurling

[Thebigdog]

will sweeper system be back sat night. and if so how many. my guess is with that team it wont be 2, mickey taker will have to show the world even if he wont talk to them that hes a student of the game.tyrone will be beat, full backline exposed and big colm, mccrory and mcnamee will be back for kildare monaghan. (full on sweepers back to the fore). a hammering on sat night will only reinforce the negative stuff for the season a bit like roscommon first half last year. no points no goals total fabrication.

Does anyone think that just maybe the style of football we play is because it's the most effective with the squad we have?

I agree with that because Peter Harte and others in this Tyrone team don't like the man to man rough and tumble of proper football. Is there 15 other Gaelic footballers in Tyrone up for the challenge? I think their is! The nephew as we all know won't be dropped.

Although I hate how Mickey has Tyrone playing and I hate how forward play has been replaced by a system which can only be described as anti football. I can not agree with anyone who thinks Peter Harte is not worth his place. I think he is the most talented footballer on the Tyrone team and probably the only one who would make the current Dublin side. You can't blame the nephew for the sins of the Uncle.

Not a chance he would get on the Dublin team.

[Christmas Lights]

Not a chance he would get on the Dublin team.

He's a very very good footballer. I know good footballers and he's one. He'd start wing half forward

lee brennan having a serious game so far in omagh

ground breaking stuff here at healy park. Tyrone are playing with 2 men in the full forward line and kicking it in...

Mickey is a genius again

He just ran through about 3 of them before putting it over the bar.

one  point against 14 man Dublin team in second half... pressure  mounting

[Il Bomber Destro]

Looks to have been a very disappointing second half.

The positive would be that Brennan seemed to do well in the opportunity with five points and our full forward line contributed 1-9 tonight. Worth persisting with these lads for a while, I don't think we can afford to play McAliskey, Brennan and Bradley all at the same time

In the last 3 years our best football came in 2015 and that had Bradley play making with McCurry and McAliskey inside with Sean moving in and out. I don't see any reason we can't go down the same way this year.

Tyrone battled hard but Dublin just seemed at times to be in second year.Time for patience next game in newbridge is a real 4 pointer.

[Carmen Stateside]

Awful stuff second half.  Dublin picked up the pace for ten minutes at start of second half and blew Tyrone away.  13/14 wides was it for Tyrone? Hardly good enough.

What do you do with Sludden then?

If you play Bradley, Sludden, Brennan and McAliskey in the same forward line it would probably be the smallest forward line in the country. It will hardly cut it with the dynamic and physically imposing defences of Mayo and Dublin.

a little bit of perspective here please this time last year we drew with dubs in croker and come summer embarrassed us this year they beat us in our back garden with a depleted team what the f..k will they do to us come August September.

Without Colm Cavanagh sweeping we look really bad under the high ball, the first goal came from high ball launched in on the edge of the square and McManamon also hit the ball as a result of a long ball launched in.

We played some really nice football in that first half. Brennan and McAliskey were very sharp.
