Delighted with the draw,no fear of them,we will beat them,time to stand up and be counted

 

[thecritic]

It's easy to get carried away with emotions etc but this is not a good draw for us. Tyrone will be looking for a bounce-back performance like ourselves but with a bit of revenge also and they are AI champions. I agree it's a good test for this group but I wouldn't be very confident especially after our last 3 or 4 games. That said, we know we can be very good on our day so you just never know. Hopefully we'll have a full panel to pick from and here's to a full house and great sporting game in the AG.

If we lose, surely the end of Geezer? Does another match deserve a shot with this group of players? We should be looking at the likes of Jim McGuinness or Malachy O'Rourke

 

[Mickey Gormley]

any update on Ciaran Mackin?

Read on here he has a fractured eye socket and would be out for the season. Yet he was warming up/kicking around on the pitch in Ballybofey before the match started.

He had an eye patch on and was in his normal clothes not togged out

 

[Wide ball]

I'd love to see us just go for it. I don't wanna see us get slapped like Donegal this year and 2 years ago I think we have the team to definitely be competitive.

I mentioned those 2 after we slumped so badly against Donegal - but I would far rather see us go on a long winning run under the present management. But if Tyrone beat us ------ time for change.

Geezers like Borris Johnson, no matter how badly he messes up he always has the brass neck and backing from his cronies to keep his job.

Anyone know if the standing areas are being restricted? Seem to be selling Dalton, Drumarg and Nialls crescent seperate. Are they closing the sections off does anyone know or could you walk to any with your ticket?

I don't think we should be arrogant enough to ditch Geezer if we lose to a top 3 team like Tyrone. Performance will be important - if we give this a real rattle then we can only be proud of the squad and management no matter the result. However, if we flop like the Donegal game then it's definitely time for change.

There's a pic on twitter showing the squad after training - you can clearly see who is not togged-out and more than likely not available for selection next week.

The east stand and drumarg terrace are being allocated to the clubs.

£22 for a standing ticket. Madness

Love geezer and was unreal but I do think that maybe we could benefit from a high profile change if possible... Id like to try mcentees obviously there stock has went down a bit...But some people have mentioned mal o rourke as well. Im pretty sure we would have decent lads in for it. Just think needs a fresh approach but all the same if he goes on another run be happy enough to keep or if cant get anyone else.

Seen that too, seems Rian O'Neill is okay which is good, no sign of oisin in that photo

tbf Oisin has been struggling all year with his achilles and fair play to him for coming on against Donegal,

Shea magill must of walked away from the County team... a very poor display from him in killeavy tonight

So a player part of a county squad plays for his club, allegedly plays poorly so that means he's left, sorry walked away from the county team.
Bravo on the detective work there

 

[Bringyourboots]

Seems a bit harsh on the lad without much substance. Probably hasn't played much competitive football for a while. Have seen him underage and i think he has great potential. Did Killeavy not win?

 

[M18]

Not sure I would stay after a midfielder came and took my position I had been training for. Was put in very hard position v Monaghan. I hope Armagh don’t discard him like some other goalkeepers have been recently.
