Tyrone CCC release details of Proposed 2010 Club Championship

The Tyrone CCC this week released draft proposals for a Championship Qualifier system in 2010 championship. The Chairman and Secretary from each club will have an opportunity to debate the proposals at the CCC Meeting on which will now be held on Tuesday 29th September. Please note the new date for this meeting.

The draw would work along the following example ...

First Round Qualifiers - 8 losing teams from Rd 1
These games would take place on the same weekend as the Quarter Finals. In 2009 these teams included Loughmacrory, Eglish, Aghyaran
Clonoe, Coalisland, Kildress, Moy and Donaghmore. These teams are drawn against each other to produce 4 ties.

Second Round Qualifiers
This round is made up of the four winners of the Round 1 qualifers and the beaten quarter finalists.

Championship Quarter Finals
The team who qualify through the direct route now have a home game against a team who came through the qualifiers. They will also not have to play Championship football three consecutive weeks.

The system can only work if clubs retain the starred games that was in operation throughout the 2009 season.

Clubs are asked to debate the proposals over the next three weeks and come to the meeting on Tuesday 29th September with a mandate to vote for or against the recommendation.

All Clubs should note that the PR/Marketing committee and County Management will also be present to inform clubs about the Garvaghey Patrons Scheme which was endorsed by club delegates at the July County Committee meeting.

I am disappointed we are out but also encouraged at the performance of a very young side this year. I feel that if Davey and Pete Harte were playing the result would have been different but always ifs for a loosing team. If I am honest Dromore were the better team over the 2 matches. We have played 3 times this year with 2 draws and one win for Dromore with one score the difference. This Errigal team will mature and become a Championship winning team without doubt.

Fancy Ardboe for the Championship and would now like to see them win it.

Good honest assessment EC, Davey and Peter would have made it tighter but I still think Dromore would have been too strong, definitely will see O'Neill Cup in Tiffy's Bar in the next few years in the next few years though. Dromore would need to be more clinical if they are to advance any further but their defence looked very strong with McCarron back to his best. Will be some contest between him and Mark Donnelly who is the best forward in Tyrone at the minute. McCusker looked very hungry and young Ronan McNabb was outstanding again. Should be a great semi and Carmen will have had time to study Dromore in detail over the last 2 games, they should just about shade it. I thought Ward was very assured and kicked much better than Devine

Ronan McNabb is one player Mickey Harte should be running an eye over next year - he has been very impressive in the matches i have seen him play for dromore this year

Agreed. He did cause us a fair bit of bother out on the wings. He would need to fill out a bit as he looks a bit light for county yet but this will come. Only 19 I think.

This is an extract from the Red Hand view latest edition ( today's actually ).

I thought a play off decided the leagues ?

Everything to Play for in Final Round

Love it or hate it but the new League format introduced at the start of the year has gone a long way to producing as competitive an O'Neills Sportswear League Championship as there has been for a number of years.
The starred system meant that the County Senior Footballers run in the championship had little on no effect on the domestic league fixture list.

As it stands going into the final round of the season only two of the six senior and reserve divisions have a league champion confirmed.

Aghaloo secured the Division 3 title a couple of weeks back and they will be joined in the Intermediate ranks by Newtownstewart who won the Junior Championship on Friday night. I

In Division 2 leaders Cookstown still need at least a point in their final game against Derrylaughan.

Greencastle know that if the Fr Rock's slip up they must secure two points in Killyman to take the title.

In Division 1 Errigal Ciaran will hope to secure a win over Donaghmore to add the senior title to their Reserve win at the same grade.

Reg 13 of the Tyrone County Board CCC Regulations 2009

In Div 1 a top four play-off will decide the league winners. In Division 1 the bottom placed team will be relegated. A play-off will take place between teams finishing second and third bottom with the second bottom team at home*. The losers will be relegated. The winners will play-off against the play-off winner from Division 2 to stay in Division 1.
*excluding Championship winners

So no retirements from the county panel for 2010?

Looks like Dooher & Co are going all out for one last push in Mickey's last year. And going by the AI final they should be there or there abouts if they can avoid injury or swine flu!

Can the division 2 promotion/ relegation play offs take place before championship is finished - some of the teams in the championship may still be in top 5 or bottom 4 thus if they won may mean could be top 6 or bottom 5 teams that fall intot he promotion/ relegation cateory.

Can't be play offs involving teams still in championship

How do you know this?

According to the hoganstand rrhf, Dooher is hoping to give it another year if he's fit enough. As for Mickey, first I've heard about him leaving next year. True, it's the final year of his three year contract with Tyrone GAA.... but does anyone honestly think it's going to be his last? I don't.

Mickey will be going nowhere. The job is his for as long as he wants it and who could argue with that. I would expect another 3 year contract to follow the current one.

Mickey will be there for another decade at least, health, etc., permitting.

Tommo2 · September 22, 2009, 02:46:21 PM

The Tyrone job should be for Mickey as long as he wants it. I bet he will be like Sean Boylan and stay for 20 years or so. No one should ever call for Mickey to resign again. It would be interesting to look at posts from July 2008 to see who was calling for Mickey to be sacked!!
