Harte rallies troops as Tyrone bid to stave-off relegation threat

TYRONE manager Mickey Harte insists his players will rally round each other and confront the threat of relegation as a united group.

The Red Hands are facing the prospect of dropping down two tiers of the Allianz Football League in the space of a year, after losing both of their opening two Division Two ties.

They face a crucial trip to the west coast next weekend for a must-win game against Sligo, and Harte admitted the pressure is on.
