Tyrone Club Football and Hurling

[TheGlenellyGremlin]

This boards gone to the dogs. Too many ones not having a clue what there on about

[Christmas Lights]

Yet again after a Tyrone SFC game the spotlight is hogged by the performance of the referee. Anybody who knows anything knows that Forbes is a terrible official & nowhere near the level that such a game requires.

The real problem here is who is actually appointing these officials? Nobody can tell me that a committee of people look at these fixtures & decide that x,y, or z are suitable to ref c'ship games. This stinks of Shane dorrity rewarding his cronies, ala sparky getting last yrs final.

Not good enough for players or managers at this time of year.

The short sightedness of people is unbelievable.  There isn't exactly a queue of people wanting to referee our games. Why would they with the absolute abuse you get?

[Jim Bob]

Anyone who is blaming the ref tonight needs to stop watching the game as they clearly haven't a clue what's going on out there. Imagine them saying that it public would be laughed at for the idiots that they are.

Why isn't Quinn getting more of these big games?
Brilliant ref according to many whom he has reffed !

Which Quinn?

We all respect the knock out format but a seeding system for first round wouldn't be a bad idea. Dromore v Carrickmore was too big a game for Round 1 and a team with genuine ambitions to win it was dumped out as no round robin.

One of the dumbest posts I've seen in a while.  Congratulations

Is it really? A seeded first round based on say league position could possibly help in preventing games being thrown which happened this year after removing the top 4 playoffs.

Missing Lough v omagh. What's the review at HT

Missing Lough v omagh. What's the review at HT

Lough just a better team and well drilled. Think they are hard looked past right now.

[DaleCooper]

Omagh put a bit of challenge in 1st half and maybe unlucky not to be closer at HT.

Lough turned screw big time and hit at least 4 two pointers in 2nd half, poor finishing on goals.

They seem to have developed from last year.

RON got the line.

[TyroneTam]

Highlight of the match was Omagh bench giving the Conroy a load of abuse led by Ciaran McDaid...Conroy roared over to Daidso saying sit down McDaid,you're just the secretary 🤣🤣 then booked Justy McMahon when he hardly said a word

According to this board there isn't a good ref in Tyrone. I wonder if Paul Gallagher will get the same treatment tonight...

[WesternBaller]

Im not one to hammer the refs as its a thankless job and i myself wouldnt throw my hat in the ring.
That said I thought that was a poor performance by sparky, when it reached the boiling point of the game it just felt like alot of soft calls were going Edendorks way and the momentum completely swung for them.

Trillick to upset the Galactico's tonight.

There is a difference between knowing the rules of Gaelic football and actually understanding the game. Without experience of a high-level team environment, it can be difficult to fully appreciate the speed, physicality and small nuances that influence what is actually happening. This can affect a referee mainly in how they interpret situations, rather than in their knowledge of the rules. Therein lies the issue we face with refereeing: too often, there isn't enough understanding of the ebb and flow of the game to make sensible decisions in the moment.
