WE will witness the first knockout championship games of the year in the coming days, bringing the buzz and excitement with it. Yes, last weekend’s action did have a bit of spice but this weekend should see things really catch fire. It’s win or bust for everybody. Derry did just about enough to get over […]
By Alan Rodgers FORMER Footballer of the Year Kieran McGeary has overcome enough obstacles during a glittering career for Tyrone not to be too concerned about the injury which ruled him out of last weekend’s All-Ireland win over Cork. Just moments were left until the throw-in when the Pomeroy clubman sustained an injury in the warm-up. […]
CONN Kilpatrick is in line to serve a two-game suspension after losing an appeal at the Central Hearings Committee at Croke Park. The Tyrone midfielder received a straight red card for an off-the-ball incident against Cork in the final ten minutes of their championship clash at Tullamore on Saturday afternoon. He requested a hearing to […]
By Niall Gartland FLOURISHING at underage level isn’t always a guarantee that senior success will follow suit, but Niall Devlin showed that he’s in it for the long haul with a sublime performance in Tyrone’s group stage victory over Clare nearly a fortnight ago. The Red Hands scored 2-3 in the first-half and Devlin was […]
By Niall Gartland TYRONE have announced one change on their starting line-up ahead of tomorrow’s All-Ireland Round Robin final round clash against Cork in Tullamore.

By Niall Gartland TYRONE stalwart Mattie Donnelly has praised the recently recruited members of the county’s all-conquering U20 team for the energy and drive they have brought to the senior set-up. Donnelly’s composure in front of the posts is just one of his many attributes as a footballer, and he steered over four points from […]
By Niall Gartland THE tickets have been booked, the accommodation has been sorted and the bags have been packed – well, maybe not just yet on the last part. Killyclogher footballer Matthew Murnaghan will hop aboard a plane and travel to the United States next week as part of a delegation from Queen’s University Belfast, […]
By Niall Gartland TYRONE have named an unchanged starting line-up for Sunday’s All-Ireland SFC Round Two clash against Clare at O’Neill’s Healy Park. Feargal Logan and Brian Dooher have kept their faith in the same starting 15 after last Saturday’s opening round against Donegal, but there are a number of changes to the match-day panel. […]
By Conor Dorman Almost 80 years ago Tyrone took their first steps onto the home of Gaelic Games, Croke Park, for the All-Ireland Minor final. It was 1947 and standing in their way of the title was Connacht champions Mayo. Among the Tyrone ranks was Liam Campbell, now 94 years old and the last surviving member […]
