Where are the Challengers to Kerry

[rionach 4]

Tyrone wont be far away either , Once the dust settles Tyrone will be back make no mistake about it . They were beaten in a hectic contest and I am sure Micky knows he made a few mistakes but they dont become a bad team overnight . No-one has mentioned them on this thread so far

Its possible but I've read this same post several times since 2005. They havent been close to Sam since.

Then again, maybe this year will see them improve, cant see it though.

Is this the poster of the year?

It's not this one from june 15th
"I just hope Mickey has one last big win before he bows out. July 19th gives the squad time to settle in terms of injuries, hopefully. Unfortunately there are too many leaks in his system, including personal relationships, tactical decisions and preparation issues. Too may sides are on the up now in terms of general competence and preparation and Tyrone are struggling to hold their own in the top 6".

nor this one from a bit earlier
"What we seen last night was the dying kick of a great team, that yes were ravaged by injury over the past number of years but thats football - we had won 2 aititles so we cant be greedy - there was probably no more than 2 all irelands in the group of players, some are burnt out mentally, some physically, and some are fine for another few years, but 2 all irelands renders that team and management great and we will never forget their achievements.  I doubt if there is a better management in Ulster never mind Tyrone that Mickey but he must move to the side after this year"

this one from Ziggy on June 15th has simplicity and understanding, underpinned by an unquenchable faith

"Imagine if Tyrone had of won on Saturday. We'd have been saying what a come-back and Mickey got it right...

Lets give Mickey a chance in the qualifiers, for a I think things were just beginning to come right".

Connaught - Mayo
Ulster - Monaghan
Leinster - Dublin
Munster - Cork

All Ireland Final - Tyrone, best team in Ulster if they can avoid the injuries and the only team that might beat Kerry in the final. Two back door teams in the final Tyrone and Kerry.

Very good predictions and good examples of not losing faith .

Ok, that betters it. Brilliant prediction.
