Tyrone maintained their perfect start to the season with a deserved win over a robust Galway side at Tuam last Sunday making it five victories from five starts in this year’s league campaign. That win not only extended the team’s 100% record but also ensured promotion to Division One for next season so objective number [...]
Five out of five wins in the league and promotion already secured with two matches remaining. That is how it reads after today’s hard earned victory over a dogged Galway side. Tuam has never been the easiest of venues to get points from and Tyrone were made to fight all the way today as they [...]
The Tyrone squad will head off this afternoon to Galway knowing that a win in this game would virtually ensure promotion with two league games remaining. However they will not be expecting any favours from the Tribesmen who themselves have shown that they are well capable of competing for the top spot as well. The [...]
Most teams now spend a lot of time looking at statistics that cover every aspect of the game from kickouts right through to the conversion rates of chances to scores.

It is not too often that you would call making five changes in your starting line up a vote of confidence but that seems to be what Tyrone manager Mickey Harte has done in naming his team for Sunday. The rotation policy with the goalkeepers is hardly news but it does ensure that each of [...]
Derrytresk came up just short this afternoon as they lost out to Clonbur by a point in Croke Park. On a day that had started so well and promised so much the pain and heartbreak of this agonising defeat will live long in the memories of the men and women from the hill. The Tyrone [...]
