To be honest im going to the semi final as a happy man, regardless of the result. Id like to see a Tyrone win naturally but if we don't win that's ok and good luck to the farney in the final. Reason being is that Tyrone unlike Down, Armagh have stuck it out at the top level. Year in and year out we are up there playing against the best at the end of the summer. We cant ask for more and if another Sam comes are way then that's the icing. We didn't fade into obscurity unlike Armagh and Down...and Derry even after their All Irelands. We're still there and credit to the management team for that.

Monaghan are in no mans land in Ulster. Let's hope we ruthlessly beat the red hands and make a statement. Hup the farney

Like myself, I will be cheering on Tyrone if we fail to win, Would never let a minority cloud my judgement. Word of warning Re your dig at Armagh, Down and Derry. Your prolonged success is a credit to your underage systems. Tyrone have not appeared in a minor quarter final since 2013, which included a lot of this present crop, losing mostly in the first round, that's a five year gap (and counting). Donegal and Derry have taken over somewhat in that period in Ulster. I would say Derry have the potential to challenge your Ulster dominance, if they can just get their house in order, they have a better pick than most going forward

This is not to mention Kerry, Dublin, Kildare, Galway and Mayo nationally and even Cavan, Meath and ourselves are stepping up recently. The clock keeps ticking

This young lad got badly injured. Won't be playing on Sunday. This is not a case of cynicism. We wish him well. He's a good footballer.

I don't want to pick holes in your post lad but we did win the all Ireland U17 championship last year. Our U17 are the 2017 inaugural all Ireland champions, so underage looking ok. And guess who played a blinder in that final, the son of Peter The Great - Darragh Canavan - https://twitter.com/officialgaa/status/902098435431514112?lang=en

Down played in a more recent Senior All Ireland Final than Tyrone if I'm not mistaken. With all of Down's problems this shows how far away from the top level Tyrone have been.

I never cease to be amazed at the number of clowns on here.

Meyler is not selected for Sunday, and the talk is that he chipped a bone in his foot and is out for the rest of the season.

If Monaghan win tomorrow will there be a serious attempt at a pitch invasion? 88 years since ye last won a semi-final, I think ye should go for it, I will be right behind yis.

Tyrone love Croke Park was the message from Sean Cavanagh during the week.
I argue this Tyrone team wilts in Croke Park.
Since Tyrone last won the All Ireland in 2008, they have beaten teams they would expect to beat, but everytime it came to Mayo,Dublin,Kerry or Cork, they were eliminated.

Tyrone record in Croke Park since 2009 is as follows.
2009 Kildare win, lose to Cork
2010 Lose to Dublin
2011 Roscommon win, lose to Dublin
2013 Meath and Monaghan win, lose to Mayo
2015 Sligo and Monaghan win, lose to Kerry
2016 Lose to Mayo
2017 Armagh win, Lose to Dublin
2018 Roscommon
Yes Tyrone have won matches the expected to win,
Monaghan version 2018 is way more advanced than the 13 or 15 model.

This Current Tyrone team can steam roll a lesser team in Croke Park, but the fact speak for themselves when they meet better opposition in HQ the fold.
