Tyrone Club Football and Hurling

[Duine Inteacht Eile]

Some finish to that game.
Despite being entirely neutral I was happy to see Dungannon win after the carry on of the Loughmacrory bench in the dying minutes.

Clogher relegated on penos. That's a tough one.

Penalties suited the county board when the game doesn't draw as big a gate

If I were from Clogher (thankfully I'm not) I would be appealing the decision for penalties and be looking that game replayed and right it should

Sorry what?

The Loughmacrory supporters behind me were very hard to listen to this afternoon.

Dungannon defeated Loughmacrory.

Just about.

The Clarkes won't be happy with how they performed. Doesn't really matter though, they are into the semi final. As for Carrickmore B team, good enough.

There won't be a chicken plucked in moy park tonight. Great result for dungannon and I also hear Thomas Clarkes won aswell

Dylan I'm surprised you had time to watch games today, I thought you'd be plannning for Aghaloo downfall? #FlanaganMasterclass

Mcelolhm couldn't be contained but still dungannon managed a win. Youngest donaghy not fazed by senior football. Dungannon impact of bench helped but 2 well matched sides

Very well matched, could have went either way near the end.
MO'R has a big first job to try and get McElholm to stay, he is the best U21  forward in the country. Absolute joy to watch, and worth every entrance fee.
Dungannon will need to improve significantly for the semi.

McElholm is a superb footballer and would be a real shame if he went to Oz. The county team could really do with him staying.
James Quinn made a big impact off the bench for the Clarke's but a big improvement overall from the team would be needed for the semi.

Not of much importance but Carney and Donaghy man of the match awards in both games. Kennedy best player by a mile in first game and any of K Barker, M Quinn and Mcelholm second game

Kevin Barker man of the match for me

Thought both motm players wouldn't be overly happy with their performances

Both clubs would have been aware before the game that it would go to penalties if the game finished a draw after extra time. That would have been the time to dispute it, not after you've lost the penalty shootout. I do feel for Clogher though, they have held their own in intermediate football for the last 5 years after having been a junior club for 20 years or so. I would fully expect them to be competing for the junior league/championship next season and they will no doubt be looking forward to their game against Augher with Dara Kavanagh next season.

Game started very slowly but then just burst into life, great second half for the neutral. Every time the Clarkes came for loch they answered, loch even had a chance to level it. They'll be hard to console after that one, left everything on the pitch and fair play to them. Proving they'll be a force in years to come if McElhome stays.

Sort of a blessing in disguise that paul donaghy had to go off, with McKee coming on and getting the winning goal.

Donaghy hobbled off but had no issues when sprinting across the pitch to get stuck in to the melee, so the injury must not have been as bad as first thought.

Anyone at the game able to shed some light on what happened and what the loch sideline did? Was hard to catch it all on the tv and then the camera cut away. Seen one loch sub throw a dig I believe, which would be a lengthy suspension.

[smort]

Loughmacrory fall agonisingly short yet again

You'd wonder if they are paying the price for years of bad behaviour, some of which we saw again in injury time today. Lady luck will surely turn in their favour at some point in the future, but she isn't with them just yet

IMHO The camera panned out but u could see enough before it did. Dungannon got a legitimate line ball in front of the Lough dug out. Shout out to the linesman who was under serious pressure from the Lough Bench but he called it fair. You could see the Lough bench aggravated.

Once the Dungannon player tried to retrieve the ball a Lough back room team kicked it away.

Clarkes then got uptight but the dynamite moment happened when one of the Lough subs with a fairly poor fade haircut came in fighting and continued to do so for a length of time. I'm assuming he wasn't anywhere near worth his place as have never saw him before.

I have this feeling had Lough acted rationally reorganised for the line ball and took the sting out of the game they would be in SF tonight.

Maybe a lesson could be learned?
