This illustrates again the dark side of social media where things take on a life of their own. Tyrone have nothing to apologise for. Mickey Harte needs to lighten up on politics and religion. This weekend the Meath boys should belt out the "Foggy Dew" before their game to get the gander up, every county should really. Black n Tans were the NAZI's imo. suckvalleypaddy (Galway) - Posts: 1669 - 10/07/2019 13:12:09 2209027 Link 7 |

Sadly you are potentially correct.

Not at all. I don't do the red thumbs thing. It's childish, I actually thought it was a very witty response.

Mickey had no need to be apologising at all in my book. Foster mentioned it but knew to say feck all, a few rebel songs being sung on a bus is nothing compared to some of the shite they're putting on bonfires and whatnot. Head out around East Belfast or Portadown tomorrow night and video some of the goings on and see what apologies are made for their 'antics'. bigboon (Tyrone) - Posts: 50 - 10/07/2019 18:10:10 2209180 Link 3 |

Indeed. If others have a problem let them turn their ears off!!! Unbelievable that people are expected to apologise over something like that! !!

If/when Brexit goes through...can Tyrone even qualify for Eurovision? Essentially yes...,since Israel etc are in it. Don't know why it's called Eurovision Rockies (Cork) - Posts: 947 - 10/07/2019 21:38:33 2209260 Link 0 |

unbelievable comments on this thread from apologists for the behaviour of the tyrone players to making fun of the whole thing..its not funny...aghaloo gaa club is the local gaa club in aughnacloy...aghaloo had to struggle through many years operating in a divided village right through the troubles...their pitch was and is right on the border..one of its members was assasinated by british soldiers in the eighties...since those dark days the community of aughnacloy has made a huge leap forward...that parade happens with the co-operation and completely respects mass goers on a saturday night...some members of the protestant community are active in aghaloo gaa club...imagine what they had to put up with this week with members of their own community telling them " i told you so"...so lets not make fun of what happened and lets not make apologies for the stupid actions of that bunch of young tyrone men...i hope they are ashamed of their actions and i hope they are ashamed of the damage they have done to Aghaloo GAA Club mayotyroneman (Tyrone) - Posts: 1821 - 10/07/2019 23:00:52 2209289 Link 3 |

Nonsense in fairness. They can and should sing whatever they want in their own team bus, nobody should be browbeaten or put down for singing patriotic songs, those days are over. We are no longer 2nd class citizens expected to keep our heads down, keep your head held high and be proud of your country and it's history. The orange parade by its very nature is against the Catholic religion so to claim otherwise in just totally nonsensical.

The song is actually not a patriotic song. If was penned by Dominic Behan in response to an incident where a drink challenged an ex British soldier living in North inner city Dublin to come out if his house and fight him. Your post completely misses the point. We are no longer second class citizens and there is every need for us to rise above the stupid behaviour of those players. mayotyroneman (Tyrone) - Posts: 1821 - 11/07/2019 13:30:03 2209486 Link 0 |

Sean Cavanaugh keeping this going with his nonsense review......is there an approved list of songs he is wants the boys to sing or would he rather have them shut up with ear pieces watching xxxx on the i-phone? this is madness. maroondiesel (Mayo) - Posts: 1196 - 11/07/2019 13:42:24 2209495 Link 3 |
