Sunday’s relegation decider just took another interesting twist.
After Kerry announced last night that Colm Cooper and Paul Galvin would be in line to make their returns to the county team, Tyrone may now have a high-profile absentee to deal with, after it emerged that manager Mickey Harte has been absent from training all week.
According to Gaelic Life, Harte underwent a “minor medical procedure” earlier in the week, and has been unable to attend training in Garvaghey.
While no decision has been made on Harte’s attendance in Omagh on Sunday, it’s believed that his backroom team have been conducting training in his absence.
It’s reported that his former number 2 Tony Donnelly could be brought back in to marshal the sideline, should Harte not recover in time.
Sunday’s game is a straight shoot-out to avoid relegation between Tyrone and Kerry, with losing side playing their football in Division 2 next season, while a draw would also see Tyrone relegated.
