Harte says pressure firmly on Donegal

Uneasy lies the head that wears the crown is Mickey Harte’s warning to Donegal ahead of Sunday’s Ulster SFC quarter-final.

On two of three occasions Tyrone defended their All-Ireland title (2003, ’05), they were beaten in Ulster and he is adamant Jim McGuinness won’t find out if his players have the stomach for another run until they take to the field in Ballybofey.

“It is a challenge. The biggest challenge is, when you have reached the pinnacle, do you have the desire deep inside to do it again,” said Harte.
