Tyrone senior scor winners tonight were Killyclogher 2 dancing titles , sketch , and ballad group , Dromore instrumental music , Trillick solosinging, Kildress quiz and recition.

Heard the solo singing was a bit of a fix "The Fields of Athenry " seriously a drunk man at a Celtic match could have sang that song regardless of the ability of the singer. Is it any wonder there is general apathy by certain clubs when it comes to participating the whole point should be putting your best foot forward so that Tyrone's Scor representatives do well on the provincial/national stage. P.S. Well done to Edendork instrumental group All Ireland champions !

There does seem to be a massive Omagh, Drumragh, Killyclogher influence.  Id imagine it would be tough for other clubs to bring the dominance. 

[WeeDonns]

I would hardly say there's a 'massive' Drumragh influence. The musicians have put a lot of effort in over the past few years, with some success. This was the first year they entered dancers.

afaik Killyclogher are the only club in the county that enter in every competition in Scór na nÓg and Scór Sinsear so it can be expected that they will have some dominance as they clearly put a lot of effort in.
It's a pity all clubs don't put in a similar effort, as I'm sure the most of them have plenty of talented musicians/singers/dancers/actors within their membership, but maybe just don't have someone with the enthusiasm to coordinate it all.

Its a good way for members who don't play football to represent their club

[Hilltresk]

Suppose it was a bit of a rant ! Killyclogher do put a serious effort into Scor and deserve credit as does everyone who participates helping perserve our culture.

[MR99]

All very quiet on the club front here, whats the latest gossip?  All clubs should be back training now and playing friendlies, has any of the big clubs lost men?

The Fields of Athenry? Christ, that's a bit of a cliche. I was at the first two west Tyrone rounds of Scor, but wasn't at the final. The solo singing tends to bore the arse of me the way they just churn out songs like the Fields of Athenry etc. One year I heard three different entrants sing a Song for Ireland! Scor might be about celebrating these old traditions but I think it's far too conservative in general. Kildress' recitation is a similar story, some young fella bleating out Robert Emmet's oration before he was hung? Gimme a break. There was a couple of far more interesting original poems that should have won in my opinion. A Dromore man, think he was called McQuaid, had a great poem he wrote called Contentment.

I thought Killyclogher's novelty act was good but they lifted two or three Leslie Nielsen jokes straight out of Airplane, anyone know did they keep them for the final? Thing is no-one even laughed at those parts when I seen them, I think most people realised they were lifted! Eglish's sketch about the farmer and the tax man was brilliant I thought, the farmer was first class

Anybody know the dimensions of Beragh's pitch or what size it is? Thanks.

[stalwart]

beraghs pitch is tight , superb facilities though

I see in the email from the Ulster Herald about tomorrow's paper, that the Championship has been put back until August.

The plan definately is a big improvement from previous efforts however a Championship opener in late July appears strange considering this was previously blocked out for the 'holiday period'?

The master plan for fixtures for this year has been agreed and passed by the County Board and will now come into place. Drumragh man Adrian O'Kane and former county player Patsy Hetherington were two of the main movers in formulating this plan which will hopefully ensure consistency of fixtures for all clubs and a more uniform approach to games. The plan had been widely acclaimed by clubs and now that it has been accepted by the County Committee the full list and schedule of fixtures should follow shortly.

The All County League will commence on the 17th of April and will continue until the 8th of July by which time all clubs should have completed thirteen games. There will then be a break for holidays and the league will resume on the 24th of July. Under this visionary plan the opening rounds of the Junior, Intermediate and Senior Championships is pencilled in for the 29th of July by which stage it is expected that all clubs will have played fourteen league games.
