Harte’s Red Hand heroes will still fly the flag for Ulster

ARE Tyrone playing possum or are they actually dead? With just four days to go until the start of the Ulster Championship, this is the question that remains to be answered.

If, as suspected, Mickey Harte is experiencing severe teething problems during this difficult period of transition, then the other teams in Ulster might have some hope.

It’s very difficult to gauge where Tyrone are right now. Last year’s Championship was particularly depressing, both for them and the rest of Ulster.
