Tyrone Club Football and Hurling

[pressupking]

Very strange indeed. I read on Derry board that Magherafelt had to pull out of the U21's due to Ulster and according to my source this happened Slaughtneil for a few years as well. Can't understand how a competition started before the senior leagues started has not been finished long before now. Galbally should do the honourable thing and either pull out or put in a team to fulfil the fixture. They have a strong panel and arguably could win their semi final without their so called main men. Their reserves won the league as well so plenty of players available

To say they will win the U21s without their main players is ridiculous. They have invested a lot of time into their players and are entitled to ask for a competition to be held up when they represent Tyrone from Ulster. This is coming from a Carrickmore supporter and we sit waiting patiently on the min the semi final waiting to roll over with or without their main players.

Spot on Roddy, why should Galbally be punished for their success!!

Well Said Roddy.

I see Ballyhale U21 are playing in championship today V James Stephens and their seniors have Leinster Club Final next week.

No messing about with the stick men.   Seems footballers are pre-madonnas!!!!

Where did I say they would win the U21's without their main men - please point it out. I am not denying Galbally have invested a lot of time in their youth but surely every club does that as it their role to develop their underage. Every other county seems to push on with their competitions except Tyrone - it is a county board issue

And just out of curiosity, when was last time Castlederg and Clonoe faced each other in a competitive match in mens/boys football? It's not a pairing you often see.

Minor League Quarter Final 1989 in Beragh....Due too a small disagreement both teams never got a chance to show their skills in the next round!!!!

Was that the year won the minor championship or was that disagreement the following year?

Only had one disagreement with the Derg may have been championship but i thought it was league....

Derg won G1 minor championship in 1989. Had a good team obviously, a few Cattersons, Benny Lynch, Aidan Lynch, lad Connolly......how come they never pushed on?

Thinking back was it 88 they won the championship with the Cattersons to the fore, may have been Dungannon (Barr & Kilpatrick) in 89 with Moortown (Lawns, Hagen and Cokey Quinn) in 90.

Was Aidan Lynch playing minor in 88/89?.Must have been about 10 then.

Dungannon won the minor championship in 89 beat Carmen in final and went on to win Ulster.

Ryan Mayse off the bench to save Newtown/Dregish

A question for you Lads up the county how good can Newtownstewart/Dregish become over time?

In the short term they'll be just as good as Newtown are now - they won't be getting any Dregish players that'll improve the team.

Long term it'll give them a wider catchment area as both Clubs are struggling with low numbers at youth level.

Don't expect them to light the world on fire - Good Junior team/Intermediate strugglers for the foreseeable.

Sorry, I was wrong. It was indeed 1988. Think Derg beat Carmen in the final.
Clarke's won 1989, Moortown 1990
