Regular midfielder Fergal Doherty has been ruled out because of an ankle injury. As a consequence Johnny McBride moves to midfield with Gavin Donaghy earning his spurs at left half forward.
Team captain Eamonn O’Hara will be a notable absentee for Sligo in their qualifier with Clare at the same venue on Sunday. O’Hara misses out because of a damaged knee ligament and also sidelined are Brian Curran and Ken Sweeney, both victims of hamstring injuries.
