Harte adds to Tyrone worries

MARK HARTE is Tyrone's latest injury doubt for Sunday's Ulster SFC clash with Down at Omagh. He has been troubled by a leg infection and is currently taking anti-biotics.

Captain Brian Dooher (ankle) and Colm McCullagh (rib) also look likely to miss the game because of injury.

However, boss Mickey Harte is confident that Stephen O'Neill will be fit while, Brian Meenan could also tog out.

Meenan was able to train for the first time in a couple of weeks on Tuesday while Harte said that O'Neill would be "OK" to line out at Healy Park.

Peter Canavan will be in the squad but may have to be content with a place on the bench.

Down's Liam Doyle has been declared fit but defender Aidan Brannigan is out.

Skipper Doyle has recovered from a hamstring injury.

Both Tyrone and Down are expected to reveal their line-ups this evening.
