Dun na nGall by 7 to 10 points,the carry on that went on in Omagh in the league will be brought up more than once in the dressing room sunday,Neill McGee will take care of Stephen O'Neill,and that will end Tyrone.

There was no carry on that day. It was a very competitive match and no arguments or appeals were lodged about red or yellow cards. Everyone got on with the business end of things, it happened to be Tyrone's day that day. But no, that game is not an issue for either team now. If anything, Tyrone will want this all the more, and that hunger is very hard to beat

As good a men have tried and failed "to take care of" Stephen O' Neill.I doubt Stevie is worried about that.We even did quite well against Dublin without Stevie and Im expecting more now that he is back.

Its not a surprise at all.Like the Donegal official said,many people don't want to be in the terraces in a packed stadium especially if they have youngsters with them.

I think it is a surprise. That's a lot of tickets left unsold. Why send them back? Could the Tyrone county board not have put them on general sale to Tyrone supporters who haven't yet managed to get a ticket?

Club members in Donegal should be given preference if the Tyrone members have been offered,

Join a club and make a difference

Thats mad. I think it vindicates the decision to have the fixture in Ballybofey. Imagine a half empty clones. I can. It brings up the big issues now of how hard times are for a lot of people, and the fact that there is such a thing as a sunshine supporter. Most people giving out about tickets before this game will not have stood on a sideline watching a game, never mind a club game since last summer.

Excluding Dublin on this because of population but in general most counties have only about 1500 die-hard fans. There were years when Donegal had terrible support however and we are on a crest for past two years so support is huge, I am very surprised though at Tyrone handing back tickets. Kind of cringe for Tyrone Co.board after all the whinging they done.

Does anyone else think this could be one of the negative matches ever witnessed eg : 2011 semi-final. I hope im wrong

I think Tyrone to win this by a bit or else a draw. I suspect if Tyrone are ahead by only one or two the crowd may sway the referee.

Tyrone lads after all your crying about playing in Ballybofey you could only sell 4000 tickets and gave back 1000 tickets to Donegal Jesus that's sad

It looks fierce bad on Tyrone after the whinging that they've done.
The spin about the terraces is the weirdest I've heard, if there were only Hill16 tickets left for an all Ireland would they be turned down?
