C'mon Tyrone You're on your own And you'll never bring the Sam Maguire homeThat's what we used to love singing in Derry anyway. We used to cling onto it even when the Red Hands were on the rise, we still had one All-Ireland and they had none. Well, things have changed. Mickey Harte arrived, Sam agreed to go home with Tyrone three different times and now here they are flirting in all of our faces again. Shamelessly too. To make it worse, Tyrone aren't even on their own anymore. Nope, they've recruited help. They've recruited bloody heavyweight help.
Thanks to AIB's The Toughest Trade installments, we've been seeing more and more sports stars make the switch to football and excelling at it too.

Connor McAliskey, Tyrone's star forward from their run to the Ulster title last year, posted the picture of the heavyweight champ and he looks menacing.
The Clonoe man has been desperately unfortunate to have missed the entire season with a cruciate injury he sustained back in January but he is still going to be a huge part in plans going forward. Perhaps Joshua can fill in for now.
The jersey is said to be XXL but, let's face it, Anthony Joshua doesn't need to worry about player-fit or any of that nonsense.Peter Canavan has positive slant after Donegal suffer shock loss to Down
We did not see this coming! Just weeks after smashing Kerry in the NLF final, Donegal have suffered a shock loss to Down in the Ulster SFC semi-final.

Limerick star Lynch given questionable red card Cork loss
Was it deserved? Cork produced a statement win today over Limerick at Pairc Uí Chaoimh. The game finished 2-22 to 1-23 in favour of the rebels, between the two sides favoured to win the All-Ireland. Cork won last year’s Munster’s final, but the Treaty have two wins over them in the league this year, including […]
