Not sure, I genuinely think it'll be similar game to the league match which had a lot of open football in it, the two half back lines will both be instrumental.

Do you think it would be in Casement??

I imagine it will be casement, we wouldn't fill Clones and Casement is close to both.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not casement!! I wanted to drive my car home. Do you think now that the soccer seaaon is over the people of Antrim will find out the GAA exist?

Not likely.

trileacman ..... Have you ever or do you know any one who has ever had a car stolen or any other kind of petty crime committed against
them in west Belfast? If Tyrone was such a GAA heartland Healy park would be able to hold more than 18000 and who knows maybe you would never have to set foot in a place like Belfast!

You beat me to it starting this one Niamh.

Hope it is and isnt casement for a number of reasons.

If it is casement i will get to it, if its clones i wont.

Any time over the past 15 odd years if I could get to the Derry Tyrone game, Tyrone won.

Anytime I couldnt get to it, Derry have won (I think its 3 times form memory).



But I agree with you, Bring it on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's ok Beacaire Gorm, keep writing us off! Underdogs is what we wish to be.

Don't forget:
We depend to much on PB
We can't win breaking ball
Our defence is terrible

;)

Ps. Where have you been recently?

I would rather have it in celtic park than casement. In fact i would rather travel to parnel park for the match than travel up to that hell-hole. Casement is the most deary, expensive, poorly constructed folly since the millenium dome.

I think that Tyrone were only getting warmed up V Armagh and will do much better next time out.

I think they will beat Derry and it will not be that close.

Defo no bitterness on my part - I wish Derry well but I think Tyrone will be too good for them.

Sorry Niamh.

Going on Tyrones display yesterday you would have to say they are a sure thing for this match.Their first game and it all came together with even Gormley getting up for a goal.It looks bad for Derry and Doherty will probably be missing.I'd say if Derry can keep the margin down to about 4 points then they'll be doing well.Tyrone would be unbackable for this.

I hate Derry Tyrone games cos they always end up in a terrible match!! Too fraught with nerves and i dont think i've enjoyed one since the 1995 game. It was one of the best games i've ever witnessed. Winning with 13 men made it for me one of the most enjoyable Tyrone victories i've been present at!
