By Alan Rodgers DARRAGH Canavan is keen to ensure that Tyrone produce another committed performance in Sunday’s penultimate Division One clash against Monaghan. Two more points from the cauldron that is set to be St Tiernach’s Park on Sunday are almost certain to secure Tyrone’s survival in Division One of the National League. Victory over […]
THIS year’s National League has been full of swings and roundabouts and has been very entertaining to say the least. We have teams who started off playing very well and are now all of a sudden struggling. On the other end of the scale, teams who we thought were on a downward curve have picked […]
By Alan Rodgers ONE winning performance has catapulted Tyrone onto a more positive framework in their battle against the dreaded drop from the top flight of the National League. It’s a survival bid which is set to reach a critical juncture during the coming weeks. First up, there’s a crucial clash with Monaghan at Clones […]
By Barry O’Donnell FIRST the good news… to say Tyrone’s track record in Castlebar is very good would be something of an understatement. In fact you have to go all the way back to Art MacRory and Eugene McKenna’s first match in charge as a joint management team in 1992 for the last occasion that […]

By Niall Gartland GALWAY in Tuam hasn’t proven the most straightforward of tasks for Tyrone in recent times, but forewarned is forearmed and Niall Sludden is looking forward to Sunday’s third round league meeting. It was a rotten day all round as Tyrone were dismantled by Pádraic Joyce’s side in early 2020 on a scoreline […]
THINK we were all taken aback with the intensity levels of the first two rounds of the National League, but after teams had a break last weekend the intensity levels should go up even further in round three. We are now moving swiftly into the business end of the league even though it’s only really […]
By Niall Gartland TYRONE have become the latest county to revert the ‘even-numbered’ model at underage level, following a vote of club delegates in Garvaghey on Tuesday evening. Club delegates delivered what was officially described by Tyrone GAA as an ‘overwhelming’ vote to end the experiment with u-13, i-15 and u-17 age groups, which was […]
By Niall Gartland FORWARDS are expected to do much more than just score these days, and Cathal McShane was content to forage deep in the face of a 14-man Donegal defence last Sunday. Tyrone produced a composed, patient display against their neighbours to claim a fully deserved o-16 to 0-8 victory, and their tactical versatility […]
By Niall Gartland LAST weekend’s McKenna Cup final defeat to Derry has dampened expectations ahead of the start of Tyrone’s league campaign, but one thing’s for sure – the Red Hands won’t travel to Dr Hyde Park this Sunday with any sort of inferiority complex. Tyrone’s record against Roscommon down the years frankly couldn’t be […]
