A great game in dungannon tonight. But why are these teams playing at this time on a Sunday night and the same next week for Errigal and Dromore?
Especially next week with the only other game scheduled being the other semi final - strange to say the least

Ridiculous time next week for one of the biggest games of the championship, especially with so little else on. Again shows it's all about tv money now at the expense of encouraging people to attend games. If both semis next Sunday easily could have played a double header in Omagh Sunday afternoon.

I am sure Sludden has his reasons.

They obviously make more tv money splitting the games up. A double header would have attracted a great crowd.

And gate money too.

Maybe but I'd imagine it's not as much as they think. A lot of neutrals will end up choosing one game and spending less on the single header than would if it was a double header. I'd say crowds at games are down than 4/5 years ago. But county board getting tv money to make up for it so don't care.

Errigal seemed to get their match ups right. They kept Mark McKelvey and the 2 Jones quiet. A lot of what Dungannon does well flows through those 3.
McNulty also a big loss as we the Clarkes struggled on their own kick outs with a lot going too short or over the sidelines.

Errigal were very un-Errigal - had a bit of steel and badness about them which they've been missing this past 10 years or so. Took the two jones and mckearney out of it and the canavans are a chip off the old block and can handle themselves too. can they back it up against dromore?

I thought Ruairi Canavan was quiet enough yesterday yet still ended up with 1-3. He didn't look to be fully fit. Darragh was superb. Dungannon couldn't get to grips with him at all.

They are sitting in a semi-final. They have been in a semi-final every year for the last 6-7 years, with only 2 wins to show for it so I don't imagine they will be getting too carried away.

Dromore going for 2 in a row. Making a serious go at it. Real 50-50 game. They way you want it.

Don't  think Dromore have a chance after only scoring 6 points against Omagh. With the firepower Ballygawley have there's only one winner for me. Who do Ulster club champs play in the All Ireland semi final? Errigal against Kilmacud would be a great game to watch.

ClubScene13

It's Ulster v Connacht and Munster v Leinster as far as I know.
Though I would imagine Glen or Kilcoo would have something to say about Errigal's prospects. Let alone the remaining sides in Tyrone.

Errigal in a Tyrone semi-final and there debate on the board has turned to who they'll be playing in the All-Ireland semi-final  ::)

Under Lights

Hopefully TG4 or Rte show all Errigals Ulster Championship matches after being denied access in Tyrone championship due to Tyrone tv

TF15

The only people who seem to talk about ulster and beyond for Errigal usually come from rivals as a 'clever' way of pretending they're looking beyond Tyrone. They've not won a championship for 10 years. There's no team in Tyrone anywhere close to ulster honours as has been shown time and again with dismal showings. We've a good championship but there's not a high level team capable of more in the bunch.
