[Radda bout yeee]

Kildress 0-14 galbally 2-5

[the_cynic]

Good result for greencastle but they cud've won it, young ronan oneill levelled it with the last kick of the game from 45 yards. Very reminiscent of last week vs dromore. Coalisland doing very well this year, very sharp and fit of what I've seen of them. Should be a great tie between them and clonoe in the championship.

Tyrone ACL Division 1 - Greencastle 0-10 Omagh 0-10

Another good result there for Greencastle ziggy. Looks like your boys are starting to find their feet.

0-07 to 0-01 up at half time, but we had a strong wind to our back. Omagh didn't really take advantage of the wind in the second half, but worked hard for their points.

We owned the midfield, until Omagh brought on Justin McMahon, which helped them alot. We were winning everything up to that point. Though Edan Clarke kept a close eye on him.

A game we really should have won, but all part of the learning curve.

Omagh were a fairly physical team that really stuck it to Greencastle, but that's what you've got to expect in the top flight. Clean game of football.

Hear Aidan Cassidy carried off with an ankle injury tonight v Lough. Not sure how bad it is

was going to pick him for the GL competition after the good showing in the league

[DirtyDozen12]

Cassidy= fractured ankle
Was in while pain coming off, think he was getting it casted tonight there, jumped for a high ball coming into the box and came down on it heavily, immedaitely knew something was wrong straight away, went down and signalled to the bench.  Horrific luck the lad, got a bad injury against Killeeshil last year and kept him from playing any part in the Ulster Championship, deja vu unfortunately, gutting for him, playing out of his skin for Augher as well. Great club man, hope he recovers speedily.

Ronan Ward = broken leg is what Loughmacrory management was saying
Looks like a bad break, had hit 1-09 out of 1-10 for the Lough today.  Accidental collison, think he was jumping for a kickout and legs got tangled.  Dont wish that or anybody, best wishes for a speedy recovery.

Both incidents happened within literally 2 minutes of each other with only about 3 miniutes of the game remaining.  Ambulance called for Ronan Ward, held up the game for approx 40 minutes or so before ref plaued the last minute and a half of the game.  Game overshawdowed in the end by the injuries.

[Final Whistle]

Moy beat carrickmore 11-09 in carrickmore this evening. Moy were the better team, carrickmore levelled it at 0-09 to 0-09 before CC popped up with a fabulous field and surging run to put a game that looked to be slipping beyond them back in front. Great game of football,played at an unbelieveably frantic pace. Good result for the moy, we have lifted 8 out of a possible 10. The county contingent are now absent, and the sharks of dromore will now be circling the remaining carcass! Only time will tell if the remaining moy team can hold their own.

Carrickmore's demise has been predicted and indeed relished by some on this board and others, let me put the marker down and say come business end of the year the carmen will be there or there abouts. They have class running right through the field, some very talented men that posess the Characteristics of their predecessors.

[omagh_gael]

Horrible luck for the two lads, hopefully a speedy recovery for both of them! How long would it take to return from a fractured ankle? I'd say that's the end of Cassidys year for Tyrone as it'd be very hard to break into the team if their still going in the championship

[Club Rossa]

Good win for Ardboe yesterday,teams were locked at 4 points each at the break with Ardboe pulling away in the 2nd half.Good performances from the McGuigan brothers with Tommy and Frank hitting 0-4 apiece.Cookstown scored a goal in the final minute but Ardboe were comfortable winners in the end.

[kicking king]

Kildress 0-14 Galbally 2-5

Kildress finally got off the mark with a well deserved win over Galbally.  In fairness the margin should have been a lot more but the pressure of four defeats on the spin seemed to tell on the Tones who couldnt seem to put the points n the board, the exception being wingback marty grimes who banged 4 of the finest long range points ul ever see (wat a nitemare the galbally 12 must have had).  Galbally lost ciaran and damian mccrory fairly early to injury although kildress midfield were dominating even when ciaran was on field.

on a separate note best wishes to ronan ward on a speedy recovery, the lough could struggle without him

[orangeman]

Terrible bad luck for both Ronan Ward and Aidan Cassidy. Hope they're back soon.




Aidan Cassidy is out of Tyrone's match against Antrim 

Tyrone midfielder Aidan Cassidy was injured in a club fixture
Tyrone midfielder Aidan Cassidy is out of the Ulster Championship clash with Antrim on 23 May after picking up an ankle injury in a club game.

The 24-year-old dislocated the ankle in the final stages of Augher's Division Two league match against Loughmacrory.

"He's definitely out of the game. It's a bad blow," said Tyrone's assistant manager Tony Donnelly.

"It happened in the last couple of minutes. He went up for a high ball and it was just the way he landed."

Cassidy's absence is a setback for the Red Hands as he was considered the county's outstanding performer throughout the National League.

The betting for this year's Championship

Ironically, Cassidy missed last year's championship because of an injury to his other ankle.

Rising star Kyle Coney is also in danger or missing the Casement Park clash with the Saffrons with a back problem.

"Kyle had a back spasm, and has not trained for two weeks," said Donnelly.

"We will just have to wait until it clears up."
