Harte jumps on the Green Bandwagon

Tyrone boss Mickey Harte has revealed that he will be cheering on the Republic of Ireland at the Euro finals in Poland.

“I have an interest in the European Championships and it would be nice to be able to see the games. Usually, I wouldn’t watch it until the latter stages but, because Ireland are in it, I will watch the group stages and I’d like to see how they progress. I think it’s good for the country when any sports team, no matter what the sport is, is doing well. We all hope that they will put in good performances but it’s a tough ask for them and they are in a very difficult group. Still, they have been in tricky groups before and emerged to make the knockout stages so it would be a major achievement for them if they could do the same again.” he told the eircom sportshub website.
