1. McGeary skipping preseason then welcoming him back.

2. Darragh leaving for a month mid-season for a holiday (now delayed).

3. Sitting near the bottom of D2, threatened with Tailteann Cup.

4. Seemingly no tactics or attacking plan.

5. Relying on an S&c coach that lives on the other side of the world.

6. Players skipping games to attend weddings and events.

7. Naming teams then reliably making 3/4 changes before throw-in each week.

8. No concrete starting 15 inc playing people totally out of position.

9. Supporter base at games plummeting.

10. No one taking responsibility for the issues - on field or off field. No leaders and no honesty to the supporters.

No wonder there's trouble...

Experience players leaving, no details on injured players (Oguz walking around with knee brace on, Hampsey, Aidan donaghy)

Not sure not disclosing players injury status should be used as a stick to beat the Manager with.

Morgan has given great service to Tyrone, unsure what the circumstances around the wedding are but these are generally occasions that players sacrifice not sure it would have been accepted in the Harte era. 

In relation to the support Tyrone have been poorly supported since 2021 so don't think that is neccesarily a MOR problem, granted if they were winning games there would possibly be a better turn out. 

Not sure what you mean "honesty to the supporters" most serious intercounty outfits will be a closed book in relation to getting information and that's the way it should be.

McKernain should be playing every game unless he's dealing with a Schmidt Sting Pain Index level of 4. Even then, he's the type of person who would play through it.

Heard a few men from Meath beside me say "ah here comes trouble now" as he entered the pitch.

Could we see Morgan outfield against Cork?

Is Pascal McConnell coming back?

Did i just read someone say "honesty to the supporters" ....

Is Joker video in response to suggestion of playing Morgan outfield? Were you at the Edendork - Carrickmore championship game last year?.. and that's club level 🤷

Would be ironic as he was one of O'Rourkes biggest fans before he came in

Some absolute clowns on this page.
The hypocrisy around Malachy O'Rourke is embarrassing. You built him up when it suited you, pushed for him to take over, and now you're acting like he's the problem. It just shows that some people will never be happy unless they've something to complain about. Real supporters back their team and management through it all  they don't jump ship the second things get tough. All this talk says more about the people saying it than it ever will about him or the squad. Tyrone have the players, the mindset, and now the management to compete at the highest level. Malachy O'Rourke has proven he knows how to build serious teams, and that doesn't change overnight just because of a few results. There's a process to this, and if people show a bit of patience, they'll see a team that's growing stronger, more organised, and more dangerous. The Sam Maguire Cup is the goal, and there's no doubt they're building towards it the right way.

Malachy take the night off would you. Tyrone bang in the middle of division 2, multiple players taking holidays during the season, players stepping away, conceding goals every game, far worse off than this time last year.

Where do you see a team "more organised" when we allowed meath to kick two pointers at will.

Some hysteria about MOR. Would Tyrone not benefit from a while developing in Div 2 particularly given that the size profile of their team isn't particularly suited to the new rules? Some also seem to forget they reached the AISF last year under Malachy.

Do some of those levelling criticism expect Kerry standards and success levels, because the supporter base is behaving as if they are guaranteed success. For players it must be soul-destroying playing home games in front of half empty stands. At least Kerry get strong support to their home games. Ask not what your county can do for you!!!!

Not buying it. Team performances drives attendance, since 2021 we have had a handful of good performances at best. Why expect families to pay to watch poor performances. Much has been made of reaching the semi final last year which was largely down to luck. At no point did any tyrone fan actually expect to win against Kerry, th score line flattered us that day

Managing Derrytresk, this will be his third year. Hasn't played for Ardboe since the Errigal hammering in 2023.
