Cavanagh's article is an inside into Tyrone's mentality. Chip on shoulder springs to mind! Tyrone were blessed with their best and amongst the best GAA teams in the 00's. In place was a great manager and together they brought home three All Ireland Senior titles - people acknowledge this achievement - like or loate their style they were great for the GAA at the time. sam1884 (UK) - Posts: 999 - 11/07/2019 15:40:16 2209556 Link 3 |
Sean is trying to make a name for himself, and he probably thinks the best way to do that is to go after the big dog in the yard. KingdomBoy1 (Kerry) - Posts: 14092 - 11/07/2019 15:42:04 2209557 Link 2 |
You could not be more wrong in what you are saying here. A sweeping statement regarding all Tyrone GAA people that is simply not true. Most Tyrone people have nothing but respect for great teams like Kerry and Dublin. I've been on here many times praising the current Dublin team and grew up in awe of Kerry teams of the past,And had great respect for their team of the noughties. It might be true there are a few eejits in Tyrone that think that way but sure ye have them types in Kerry and Dublin and other counties too. Doesn't mean all people are like that.

This is obviously going to turn into a "Tyrone fans did this during a league match, Tyrone fans did that at a match" then probably turn to the Kerry and Dublin ones on here stating the same so what's the point. The_Fridge (Tyrone) - Posts: 2087 - 11/07/2019 16:20:01 2209579 Link 1 |
You gave me directions through a rough part of Tralee where I'd get my head kicked in ! lol You've said plenty on here that you wouldn't say in the real world chief to a Dubs fan to their face Now fair enough you've had your say but for Jaysus sake can you never just accept the odd thing.. You and a couple others are the main cause of an awful lot of negative buzz on this site yet you always point the finger.. I'm not the first to point out as much jimbodub (Dublin) - Posts: 20587 - 11/07/2019 16:22:30 2209580 Link 3 |

He try sending you to the Bullring was it Jimbo?!?! Hermit, far from the ol loveable cute kerry hoor that we all know and get on with, you are just nasty at times. Westkerry my friend, just back from your part of the world again, the finest of people, the most beautiful of places. Ye are blessed Regarding what SC said, I will say this; when Kerry fan's see you as beneath them, they are the nicest people in the world. When they see you as a threat, the mask slips on some of them SOME Liamwalkinstown (Dublin) - Posts: 8166 - 11/07/2019 16:36:38 2209586 Link 5 |
It's already begun! Every thread is getting taken over by Dublin and Kerry posters having a slanging match.

I respect your opinion and maybe some Tyrone people think like yourself. However the media is awash with Tyrone people and Cavanagh's views may be worded differently but the message is the same as it's been over the last number of years - I have also heard this chip on shoulder mentality at matches. It was an amazing team in the 00's and whilst MH has kept Tyrone competitive there is no need to disrespect other counties long successful history - Cavanagh's comments didn't surprise me to be honest as it's been the norm of Tyrone people in the media - sorry for highlighting it but I noticed it a long time ago.

Maybe the Tyrone lads could take this one. Has SC burned a few bridges in Tyrone? Sindar (Roscommon) - Posts: 348 - 11/07/2019 17:46:43 2209615 Link 0 |
Bizarre comments from Sean Cavanagh. I don't think anybody in Kerry will be particularly offended or anything but I don't see what the point of saying what he said. Very foolish. GeniusGerry (Kerry) - Posts: 2105 - 11/07/2019 18:23:19 2209625 Link 5 |
Oh I assume the big dog has gone for a walk when he arrives or something so and is going for the middle dog instead ????? waynoI (Dublin) - Posts: 13650 - 11/07/2019 18:24:06 2209626 Link 3 |
Sacked from what and by whom? The publisher ran with this article very deliberately and it clearly worked. There's a bit of uproar from the Kingdom but all they have to do is reference what one of ye're own has said about Kerry fans in the past - and it is referenced. It does reflect the level of hatred that developed between the two teams at that time. Is it an insightful article - no. it's tabloid, hence the paper that published it. Is it intended to incite? Absolutely. It's the launch of a new column in a tabloid newspaper. And if ye happen to meet Tyrone in a semi-final this article will get referenced again and again. If not, ye meet them in the league next spring anyway. So it's a win-win scenario for the publisher. Will RTE sack him? It's got nothing to do with them. So who else is going to sack him?
