Tyrone v Down - Sun 18th May, Omagh

[dublin7]

I thought Morgan should have got a red card for the foul. Didn't make any attempt to play the ball & just kicked the Down player. Cluxton got a red for less!

Clinton card what?

[bigtogs]

Morgan is a looney bin went a long way in beating tyrone last year.... And for what he done today was plain stupid..... Harte has never gave Mickey oneill any game time in the league for some experience for to be in a position to just to throw him in mid game is difficult for any goalkeeper Dublin had something similar when cluxtan got sent off....time and time again Mickey Harte is leaving more questions than answers with team selections...... My curry will never be a champ footballer when push come to shove either...

What a load of balls. Morgan is a fantastic keeper, easily in the top three in the country. McCurry has been our mist consistent forward this last two years. His finish today was top class.

arsehole in the pub at my phone. .. loada balls your correct... never leave your phone when you go yo the toilet....fact....

Ah that old one ;-)

lol

Proud of our comeback as first half was dire and Tyrone should have been further aheay at halftime. Good calls from James although I think Peter Turley was injured and Ambrose looked like he was carrying an injury also. Kilcoo men lifted us along with Benny's presence and Doyler's brains. Ten electric minutes of all that is good about Down football should have got us over the line but Donal didn't look confident and it was inevitable that the Coldrick/Cavanagh combination would produce a nice earner for the Ulster council. No-one outstanding for us but Carr, McKernan,Madine and especially Mc Ginn put in big shifts. Strange selection and tactics from Mickey, Morgan so important for them, Matty Donnelly and Coney are super footballers but unlike most here, I think Sean Cavanagh was superb. Jerome Johnston was the mentor who ran into McGinn but his boys had the balls for the fight. We had no fear of Omagh and we fear no-one in Newry.

That game today will help bring Tyrone along in their quest for the Anglo Celt, and a Saturday night in Newry packed to the rafters with Down Fans,and a Down team smelling blood, will bring them on further. You Tyronies may not respect us but at least you should thank us

[T Fearon]

Is it just me, or is Tyrone's annual circuit of Ireland starting earlier every year? At least they won't need a Sat nav to find Newry.

Replay clashes with champions league final.

So?

[Throw ball]

Few questions for Coldrick?
What was he thinking for the Tyrone Penalty? How was it not a black card and where was the advantage?

Why did he give Conor Lavery a yellow card for striking SeanC?

Is the black card not for a deliberate foul? If so Morgan's foul wasn't deliberate, penalty yes but he had committed to spreading himself and had been sent the wrong way by the Down player, penalty yes but black card no!

Also why wait until Big Sean goes to ground to give him his free?

I will revert to M Harte's 10 year old sermon about consistently in referring must come first!

With all that said Tyrone's defence is a shambles and probably deserved to lose

Ref got it completely wrong on penalty. Should have played advantage and/or black card. People make mistakes.

Morgan definitely appeared to be deliberate trip. Black card correct.

Big Sean goes to ground that quick that the referee doesn't have time to blow his whistle before he hits the ground.

Despite the criticism that will not be the worst refereeing performance of the year.

Thought both teams deserved to lose at one stage or other. Draw fair enough.

So?

Crowd could be affected.

I think you guys are closer to an Anglo than we are.

[naka]

Mickey Harte is holding Tyrone back at the moment.

Ooh how quickly you guys forget
If Armagh had Mickey we would have more than one all Ireland .
To the game, thought after first half Tyrone would push on, they were very poor in the second half,with down stepping it up and benny leading by example
Was in a pub full of Armagh men and to a man we were supporting our mourne neighbours, never saw as much venom against Tyrone before.
Hope down push on and beat them next week.

Appearing to be a deliberate trip I agree but after viewing the replay it defo wasn't a  penalty yes but never a black card

Coldrick's reaction time must be super slow (a possibility) if it takes him 10 secs to blow a for a foul? Big S was fouled multiple times he didnt foul himself

Also do u actually think it was a bad refereeing performance? U seem to have justified most of his mistakes

Down v Tyrone & Down v Monaghan will be the next two matches in the Marshes.

one would need one to find the pass though, worst pitch in ulster, makes banbridge look like croke park.
