Canavan: Red Hands still looking for top gear

ONCE more Peter Canavan will be a spectator when Tyrone hit the championship trail this weekend.

Though he won't start against Laois in their fourth-round championship qualifier in Croke Park tomorrow, the All-Ireland winning skipper is in positive spirits.

Canavan is content that the All-Ireland champions are still in the race for Sam Maguire despite falling at the first big hurdle in Ulster.
