Tyrone County Football and Hurling

I wouldn't gloat too much about having a better record than Monaghan. Considering they have the fourth smallest population of any county in the country and a lot of the players are based in Dublin they've done very well,

benny, underage all irelands in 04' 08' 10 ' 15' 17'. hardly a lean period. how many all irelands have the likes of monaghan won in the same period?

Tyrone have regularly beat Monaghan in the championship this decade. Tyrone have more Ulster titles than them this decade and a lot more all Ireland semi final appearances.

could also argue that since o rourke took them over 6 years ago they have also won 2 ulsters and beaten us in championship. they have been in 5 of last 6 ai quarter finals plus 4 continuous year in div 1 which we havent done. so we arent that far ahead of them with all our underage success.

Redzone you think you inspector Morse. You know feck all about who is who and you know even less about football. Sad life you have trying to figure out who people are on an anonymous message board.

mickeys disciples are well rattled! they are a bit like the tyrone players at the minute, starting to doubt what its all about and how they could have been so badly brainwashed by the beard.

The Bearded One · February 27, 2018, 09:49:20 AM

This is thread is getting absolutely ridiculous at this stage. Any chance of just debating the football?

You can blame Mickey Harte all you want for a one point loss to Monaghan....but is it his fault that Richard Donnelly kicked ball after ball into a sweepers hands all night? Is he to blame for Niall Morgan misplacing a couple of kick-outs that led directly to scores or Mark Bradley going for goal twice when they weren't on. Was he to blame for Fintan Kelly kicking 3 points from 3 possessions because no one checked his runs at the start of the game? The players take the field and play to a devised game plan but when the game takes a life of it's own and they make mistakes or take wrong options it is not Mickey Harte's fault or Horse or Stevie O'Neill.

A bit of perspective is needed here. We simply don't have the resources to go all out attack and we don't have the defenders capable of going man to man..so we have to balance all that. I don't think anyone doubts a need to play with a more attacking approach and you can see already that they seem to be pressing further up the pitch with less men rushing back to stand on the D. You can also see more kick passing into the full forward line, this is a work in progress because we simply have ignored this skill for too many years. Last year we won league games and Mickey Harte ridiculed 'it was only the league'. This year we are losing these games and he is still wrong.

YES!! He is partly responsible for all mentioned. He can remove Richie from the game if he is repeatedly making errors. He can change the kickout strategy that he has asked of Niall or change his keeper if he cannot perform what he is being asked to do. Fintan Kelly could have been identified as a big threat going forward and make sure he is picked up.

Against Dublin last year Sean Cav said they were victims to the system, there was no movement from the system. So I'm assuming there is a system in place against Monaghan so if Morgan had a kickout plan that wasn't working can this be changed. If Richie was told when you get the ball get your head up and play it inside change to run at them and win the free or look for the support runner to break the defensive lines.

While Players will always make individual errors the examples outlined by you can be addressed by management and adopting the game plan to improve if the errors being made.

Monaghan obviously targeted Conall McCann and put Fintan Kelly on him so he could do what he done in the first 10 mins. I personally do not think Conall Mccann is up to the standard and Saturday night backed up my opinion.
