if i was on a all star trip with this guy id avoid him as well , hardly sounds like a barrell of laughts !

I'd like to ask Brian why he felt the need to hit O'Sullivan in the back?

Because that's what GAA players do-I have no doubt that I will be slaughtered here as I have been before on the same subject but the minute long shouldering that is mandatory when you go onto your man before the game or as a sub is ridiculous-it says enough about the game that McGuigan is probably feeling hard done by that he got sent off for his cowardly shoulder charge into O'Sullivan's back as it is fairly par for the course in the game.He is right about one thing though and that is the amount of diving, face holding and goading of opponents that went on last Saturday evening would embarrass a South America 11 v Portugal/Italy combo soccer team. In saying that, as soon as Tyrone went 4 or 5 points behind and they knew the game was up, they resorted to acting like thugs and the behaviour of the likes of Joe McMahon and Brian McGuigan left a fair bit to be desired-there is a huge difference between being hard and just being a filthy thug.

Staandy for the great Kerry media PR machine to go into overdrive denouncing McGuigan and repainting the halo on O Sullivan's head. Newspaper columns from all the below will be used to discredit this upstart. Paidi O Se

Isn't it fantastic to see all the jealousy coming out when Kerry win a game ,especially the rebels because now they know they are in for another drubbing in Croke Park if Kerry meet them,I was lucky to be in Killarney for the heavy weight contest ,It went as expected ,a mean ,mouthy,dirty game ,all the Gaelic Football came from Kerry ,There were no complaints from Tyrone over the years when they had the refs in their pockets ,12 yellows for Tyrone and 3 straight reds for the opposition,for the first time ever the ref left Kerry stand up to Tyrone and defend themselves against the thuggery ,fair play to the ref ,all Kerry ever wanted was a level playing field ,They are now throwing all their toys out of the pram because they know the game is up ,Still Tyrone and Kerry have 39 all ireland;s between them ,PS Tyrone have 3.

Remember Steven McDonnell's book where he mentioned being taunted by Tyrone players about his gambling problems. There's a way to go about things alright.
