What worries me most is the lack of mobility in this Tyrone team. Looking at Kildare yesterday, they looked fast and mobile and this is where we are going to be found wanting. brendtheredhand (Tyrone) - Posts: 10897 - 06/06/2011 14:30:09 948693 Link 0 |
There is no way we can moan about the ref yesterday. We would have won had we played ball and had a bit of manners. Jinxsy could have got the line, Galligan sailed close to the wind too with yellows, Darren Hughes, my fav player, lashed out also. Young lads mouthing at Tyrone men with 3 all Ireland medals, we need to concentrate on ball more. Tyrone are done, and with a full positive ball in focus attitude, we should have won. Lads chawing the ref also, is it any wonder we may have lost marginal decisions. I am a proud Monaghan man, but we have no discipline, not from county board, even refs in the county get unnatural grief. Time to look at ourselves and learn a bit if class like we had in the 80's team. Yesterday we were a disgrace, a bit like Dublin under Paul Caffrey. We need to clean up our manners like they have under Gilroy carcracker (Monaghan) - Posts: 186 - 06/06/2011 14:56:23 948725 Link 0 |
What a joke you all are - Tyrone people inparticular have the nerve to say Monaghan are the dirtiest team in Ireland. They don't look at themselves obviously and the antics of some of their players yesterday. I really hope the CCCC look at Owen Mulligan and ban him for the rest of the year. He doesn't deserve to be on a football pitch. I really hope Tyrone get beat and out of the championship very very quickly. They are a disgrace supp01 (Monaghan) - Posts: 156 - 06/06/2011 15:35:06 948771 Link 0 |

hey Carcracker wouldnt go as far to say we were a disgrace more stupid than anything as we certainly did ourselves no favours mouthing away to the ref and Tyrone players particularly in those last few minutes when with a bit of savy we could have taken something from this game. Dont know if this is inexperience young lads being too pumped up as it was a big problem under Banty as well. Sad thing is your right Tyrone are not the force of old still quality players but their legs are gone, if we had gone down to 14 players against their 05 team we would have been heavily beaten out the gate instead they let us back into it towards the finish and cooler heads could have rescued that one so might well be a missed opportunity yesterday. seanie08 (Monaghan) - Posts: 1912 - 06/06/2011 15:39:23 948785 Link 0 |

All this talk of teams being "dirty" is rubbish. What do they not wash the jerseys or something ? joseff (Louth) - Posts: 964 - 06/06/2011 17:13:22 948926 Link 0 |
Can we all not just move on - this is sounding like the time Derry and Monaghan met and it was all blew out of proportion and this is the same - To be honest there was three bad tackles in the game Dessie Mone on Jordon, Kevin Hughes on Donal Morgan and Owen Mulligan on Colin Walshe off the ball. supp01 (Monaghan) - Posts: 156 - 06/06/2011 17:15:59 948929 Link 0 |
Just wondering what would have happened here? Their number 10 Stephen Gollogly hit out a couple of times at Philip Jordan. When the referee went to consult the linesman Monaghan substitited him and Jordan got a yellow card. DUB1 (Dublin) - Posts: 5583 - 06/06/2011 18:01:57 948962 Link 0 |
Yesterday's conditions were atrocious for the game, greasy surface, constant rain, therefore any close competitive game will appear "dirty". The ball tends to spend more time "out of hand" than in it, therefore there will be several 50/50's & downright doggedness to win the ball. Every GAA person, would want their team to compete for the ball, in such circumstance. Monaghan Exile (Monaghan) - Posts: 444 - 06/06/2011 18:38:34 949021 Link 0 |
The free kicks that Tyrone got were every bit as handy as the frees awarded to Monaghan, thats just the way the game is now. It's the same for everyone. Every time a Monaghan player looked like getting away from his man, Tyrone fouled, resulting in a high number of their scores from the dead ball. Fair enough the conditions were terrible, the ref wasn't great, he didn't get any help from the line or the umpires, but how did they missed two incidents involving Mulligan? redandblackgaa (Tyrone) - Posts: 251 - 06/06/2011 19:00:36 949045 Link 0 |
did i miss something yesterday was there someone killed on the pitch NO, it was a hard hitting,dirty at times from both sides,game played in terrible conditions,both teams first game in championship and they were fired up,a bit too much at times but thats football,best of luck to tyrone,and hopefully we settle down and get a good run in the qualifiers,and just to clarify something one messy game by no means makes us the dirtiest team in ireland... patsy100 (Monaghan) - Posts: 10 - 06/06/2011 19:29:37 949071 Link 0 |
Was at the match yesterday and saw what went on. there was former monaghan players and a former successfull Monaghan manager sitting in our area and they were shouting loud an clear forget about the nonsence lads and play football.I honestly dont think that we were ever in with a chance of beating Tyrone yest as they have a very big motive to proceed further this year and we have a very young team. they only way that young players are going to get noticed is to play good clean football and sorry but that cannot be said about some of our players yest. Tyrone are too long of the tooth to bow to that kind of behaviour. I hate naming amateur players but I cannot see what Colin Walshe was goin to gain by mouthing off to Stevie O Neill. O Neill dident need any further incentives to further cruicify us. If people watched the match on BBC at 7 yest eve it showed further what went on. put it behind as a bad day at the office when wrong decisions were made. the only way Monaghan will win anything is to concentrate on the football. thats what people travel and pay in to see. border Gael (Monaghan) - Posts: 921 - 06/06/2011 20:35:02 949137 Link 0 |
Border gael it was kieran duffy not colin walshe who was mouthing off to Stephen O'Neill, which was just naivete on his part to think someone as experienced as O'Neill would be put off by it . I also believe that the reason why the monaghan players were mouthing off to the ref so much is because of the way they get away with so much in club games where they seem to me to be untouchable from being punished by the referees. IMHO I think both teams were as bad as each other but that tyrone were just that bit cuter in the hits which is something teams need to be successful at the top level in the modern game.

Mulligan still taking a touch for hitting Walshe. If someone walked past you and hit you a slap in the crown jewels how would you react? omaghredhand (Tyrone) - Posts: 3656 - 06/06/2011 21:43:36 949225 Link 0 |
