If it's not Malachy O Rourke, Enda Mc Ginley and Peter Donnelly would be my choice. Saynothing (Tyrone) - Posts: 2150 - 30/08/2024 10:54:44 2567637 Link
I would love to see Paul Devlin get the job. There is some serious young talent coming through who all look up to him and rumours of some senior players re- joining the panel. tireoghainabu (Tyrone) - Posts: 338 - 30/08/2024 11:29:06 2567649 Link
Replying To tireoghainabu: "I would love to see Paul Devlin get the job. There is some serious young talent coming through who all look up to him and rumours of some senior players re- joining the panel." Paul devlin would be a very good appointment,however,he might rather sticking to the u-20s. Less pressure and if he took on the seniors and it didn't work out,where would be go from there? Most people would remember him as the senior manager that didn't use the talent that he had at his disposal. Maybe I'm wrong though. TalkToFahy (Tyrone) - Posts: 26 - 31/08/2024 13:25:35 2567788 Link

To be honest I think if Malachi O'Rourke throws his hat into the ring, he will get the job and take Porter with him. tireoghainabu (Tyrone) - Posts: 338 - 31/08/2024 17:08:45 2567808 Link
Surely better to appoint a Tyrone man? Viking66 (Wexford) - Posts: 13877 - 31/08/2024 21:17:03 2567816 Link
Replying To Viking66: "Surely better to appoint a Tyrone man?" I suppose O Rourke does live in Tyrone and would likely have good local knowledge...... Viking66 (Wexford) - Posts: 13877 - 01/09/2024 09:21:22 2567840 Link

Replying To Viking66: "I suppose O Rourke does live in Tyrone and would likely have good local knowledge......" O''Rourke would nearly qualify as a Tyrone man at this stage, has been living in Ballygawley for years. He won't be getting much travel expenses if he gets a mileage allowance as Tyrone training ground is only up the road. tireoghainabu (Tyrone) - Posts: 338 - 02/09/2024 20:41:02 2568116 Link

Replying To germac: "If Malachy does get or take the job will he be the first outside the county" John Donnelly a Fermanagh man living in Trillick was manager for a while back in the eighties as far as I know. tireoghainabu (Tyrone) - Posts: 338 - 08/09/2024 21:25:53 2568989 Link
I would expect Tyrone to be very strong again in 2025. No harm to Dooher and Logan, they got their All Ireland, but it did look from the outside at least that a fresh voice was needed. Ulster 2025 will be a minefield. Donegal, Derry, Tyrone and Armagh all big contenders. I suppose it will depend how much stock teams put into an Ulster Championship win. McGuinness always goes for it. I think there should be som sort of better reward for provincial winners. But then I suppose Dublin and Kerry don't have to extend themselves too much.

Indeed, top appointment and Malachy would be well tuned into Tyrone football. They should pull out all the stops and get Peter Donnelly away from Ulster rugby. Ulster and Division 1 football this year will be top. Saynothing (Tyrone) - Posts: 2150 - 11/09/2024 13:38:49 2569414 Link
