Tyrone Club Football and Hurling

[Quarterbackk]

No football for 8 months then 3 games in 8 days. Let's see how bodies hold up to all these double weekends.

The county board see the tyrone leauges as an inconvinence with no regard for player welfare.

Then come championship when its cash out time....they pretend like they care.

Clubs need to have a back bone and not stand for this shit.

This schedule has been forced upon the county board by clubs not budging on structure changes and then by Tyrone being drew out in the Preliminary round of Ulster.
Clubs and the county board need to come together and look at a different structure that allows a league to get underway at the start of May regardless of how the U20s are performing.

Heard there have been at least 9 Div 1/2 clubs with objections in already

When else do they want the games played? The clubs want their cake but don't want to deal with any of the consequences -

- Want League finished before championship
- Want to play all games with County u20 players
- Don't want more than 7 starred games
- Have refused any structural changes to the ACL suggested over the last few years
- Demanded inclusion of a holiday period this year

It's a no win situation but surely the clubs must now realise that they'll have to agree to changes, even if it could disadvantage them at certain times.

My preferred option is still the split league (ie Scottish Premiership). First 15 games can be played mostly without County players. Once the split happens, County players will then be available.

Play Wednesday or Thursday & Sunday maybe on a double gameweek.

You have the club Minor season to play midweek.

Double game weeks=less training sessions=less sessions for mercenary to claim for-won't someone think of the children!

I don't agree that the released schedule has been forced on them to the extent that they begin the league with a double round.

Players going from no games to two games within less than 48hrs??? That's madness in anyone's eyes - unless you are sitting behind laptop screen making up fixtures, with no idea how players and teams recover and prepare from game to game.

With a little bit more creative thinking they could certainly spread the games out a little better, even within a compressed window of June to August.

For example why not look at a Friday - Wednesday - Sunday week in June and the same again later in the league. Or at least let clubs have some ability to arrange games between themselves if they so agree.

You have to factor in your Minor Season which will run on Wednesdays and Tyrone Senior's schedule. Pretty tied.
I don't think all the blame can be laid at the county board's door step. Change is needed but needs to come from clubs as well.

[The Bearded One]

But you are arguing clubs should play on without u20 players? Surely then, it would be ludicrous not to arrange a better senior schedule just because of a minor competition?

Play minors on the Friday night and seniors on the Wednesday if it comes to it.

I'm not suggesting that happens every week but it can be done with some sort of thinking.

This is the second time you come at me you fkwit. I have sat in numerous committees and understand fully the way it works. I have also watch my son suffer i jury afyer injury. How does every other county in Ireland work.  If you think club men not playing football for 9 month is acceptable you haven't an ounce of sense. You must be a Tyrone TV Moneyman.

Every other county begins their league in March with no concern if County players ever play a single minute.

Our Clubs don't want that, and it would totally devalue the competition if it happened.

It'd be easy to start our leagues early - just tell Clubs that they have to play all their games without Senior / U20 players.

[In hiding]

From a selfish angle.
It would be lovely to head to a refixed club game this evening if there was one happening.
Even an aul minor game
I suppose I could go to Slaughtneil and Glen tomorrow evening
