McKenna Cup 2024

[Franko]

Permatan McCann at wing forward, jumping about the field like the Tom Daley of Gaelic Football and the corner back who spends his time niggling and prodding his direct opponent in an attempt to get him sent off.  If manliness was embodied by "limp legs" Jordan when Marsden rubbed his face, then yes indeed, the great hard men of Tyrone surely fit that bill.

*And I haven't even mentioned Cavanagh yet.

Hows Jamie Clarke and his coffee tasting club getting on?

Im sure the Derry County Board wont be too pleased with both their manager and assistant manager/trainer being sent to the stand on Saturday night.
Either of them hardly covered themselves in glory.
Poor reflection IMO.

Maybe he wants to know how easy it goes down?

It would suit the Derry fans better to concentrate on how well their county team has begun this season instead of continually analysing incidents that occurred during their two meetings with tyrone. If I were a Derry fan I would be more than pleased with the way Barton and co seem to have instilled a bit of bite back into the jersey after so many years of mediocrity. I didn't hear tony scullion whinging about mcnamee, McCann etc. just be glad that your county are back performing better than they have done for quite some years and that tyrone v Derry games are now like those in the 90's.

A peculiar type of mindset that seems to derive more pleasure from the wrongdoing of others outside the camp (perceived or otherwise) than celebrating the things going right within......

Derry have perennially had the potential to achieve...but never seem to crack the mental aspect of the game to provide the level of consistency that sets the top teams apart.

O'Kane, Lynch, Muldoon, assorted Bradleys, Kielt, etc.....so many good players.....shoulda achieved so much more..

As Phiilp Larkin put it.... "Yet still they leave us holding wretched stalks of disappointment"

Ah well.....fcuk them.....long may it continue......

Amen to that. Ok, so there were a few dodgy incidents on both sides. Get over it! paralysis by analysis and he said she said saids.  Tyrone are a solid team and these games will stand a developing Derry team in good stead going forward.

I miss Armagh.

Proper manly opponents instead of lying down con men like McKindless and Barton, Enda Lynn and Liam Hinphey.

Laughable.
Lets remind ourselves of the "men" Tyrone have.

I like that term "bad smell". It follows this Tyrone team around and has done for some time.

This is McKenna Cup thread - it has nothing to do with how Monaghan behaved in All Ireland QF. Tyrone got involved that day and have probably learned their lesson.

They did learn it, they learned to dive more and get the filth in off the ball, well done, they are a credit to the GAA world!

Are we still talking about Monaghan?

I watched the hit from Mc Cann on the ipad last night over and over and over and over and over (your getting the picture) again. Was it deliberate, without doubt, he was no where near the ball, he jumped with both feet off the ground into a static player, he raised his elbow. The ref was at best two arms length away and actually looked at Rodgers as he fell unto the ground. Really don't know how you could describe the refs inaction, he saw it, you can see him looking at it,  incompetence doesn't actually reflect the magnitude of the incompetence considering the serious injury sustained.  Mc Cann has questions to answer and is portraying himself as a man of dubious character AGAIN.

Mc Kindless has not form in this regard, a potentially very dangerous tackle, hopefully he will see the error of his way.

Couldn't agree with that at all.

He was in full flight until the ball started to come his direction, he then jumped, turned towards the ball, and raised his arms to catch the ball into his chest, all in the one movement. He missed the ball as he was travelling so fast and then unfortunately clattered into young Rodgers who was standing static.

An unfortunate collision and hopefully the Derry man gets over it soon, but it was completely accidental, I would suggest try looking at it again with my description in mind

Don't take it too bad if your comments aren't taken too seriously on this matter.   Your meltdown during rufflegate is still fresh in the memory.

Re: Cathal Mccarron,  I'm seen the man play 3 times since his comeback and haven't heard a single whisper about,  ye know.  I've always maintained that the most abuse he'll get will be within his own county,  especially during Dromores championship  match/es.

Not sure how that is at all relevant, prehaps you could tell us how?

And was that my comments about Darren Hughes?
