Replying To IrishGael3: "No harm to you - you're judging Tyrone by something that happened a long time ago to your county and some Down people don't seem to get over it. The problem with this team is their style and if anything they lack cynicism - the game against the Dubs last year needed someone to upset the blues - a cynical tackle or brawl - but don't think they have it in them. So don't take this unrelated biased view of Tyrone to start this broad brush labelling of this current set up - it's lazy commentary!" Yeah, but no Down man will ever feel anything other than superior to us Tyrone bogmen. Don't expect too much objectivity from the Mournemen. essmac (Tyrone) - Posts: 1141 - 24/02/2018 17:12:19 2079715 Link
I took this photo myself - this is how Mayo (a free-flowing, much-lauded Southern team) defended a Tyrone attack: https://attackingsouthernplay.blogspot.co.uk/ essmac (Tyrone) - Posts: 1141 - 24/02/2018 17:31:04 2079718 Link
Replying To neverright: "So partition has worked and created an 'us' and 'them' in your view. That amazes me coming from a GAA poster." Of course it has. Old news. I lived in Dublin for 15 years. The partitionist mentality is everywhere, in both parts of Ireland. You don't need RTÉ maps with the North deleted to realise that. essmac (Tyrone) - Posts: 1141 - 24/02/2018 17:33:16 2079720 Link

Employing tactics like having a player run across the eye line of a free taker doesn't he[p if you want to be popular mhunicean_abu (Monaghan) - Posts: 1044 - 24/02/2018 23:14:18 2079860 Link

In all fairness i think between mccanns hair flick 2015 and sean cavanaghs pull down on mcmanus 2013 all in the last 4 to 5 years i think tyrones cards are marked it might be in the past but people dont forget but still a good provincial side and possibly will win ulster prideof85 (Monaghan) - Posts: 851 - 24/02/2018 23:39:46 2079871 Link
Replying To prideof85: "Are you been serious?" Beagan took 4 long range frees off the ground tonight. each time a player (usually Number 7) ran diagonally across in front of him. Only saying what I saw or is that not allowed lest you be accused of having an agenda against Tyrone? He scored 3 of them btw. mhunicean_abu (Monaghan) - Posts: 1044 - 25/02/2018 00:47:22 2079887 Link

I think the writing is on the wall for Mickie Harte. For God's sake cut the shackles of your young team and let them express themselves and play football and not have them playing boring stuff that's not going to win games. This is proven over this past couple of weeks. border Gael (Monaghan) - Posts: 894 - 25/02/2018 17:22:30 2080087 Link

Replying To prideof85: "Not really when its the tyrone players that does it" There you go - you've just unmasked yourself - it's a Tyrone thing and not the style which everyone is at and have been for a while! IrishGael3 (USA) - Posts: 1092 - 05/03/2018 10:47:52 2081895 Link
When you've been in a job as long as Mickey Harte has it's natural for people to question his ability to still be the man in charge. Tyrone have won the last 2 Ulster titles, hard to believe that leaving Clones last July there would now be a significant number of people unhappy with him. But that Dublin game cut deep. Tyrone went thinking they had a chance and were so soundly beaten that it was a reality check for them. I think what fans are looking for in this league are signs that Tyrone have taken steps to close that gap and so far there are none. Personally I don't think Tyrone have the forwards to trouble the top teams. FootblockREF (Monaghan) - Posts: 563 - 05/03/2018 21:08:09 2082050 Link

No agenda. just tactics that are from yesteryear and not easy on the eye. Vishred (Mayo) - Posts: 303 - 11/03/2018 17:59:37 2083458 Link
