Mickey Harte re-appointed as Tyrone manager

Mickey Harte was last night re-appointed as Tyrone senior football manager for a 16th season, ending speculation that his reign was about to come to an end.

Harte was handed a three-year term at a meeting of the county executive after clubs voted in favour of holding on to the long-serving boss.

The Errigal Ciaran man has guided the county to Sam Maguire Cup success on three occasions .
