Nine new names in Tyrone's McKenna Cup squad

Tyrone manager Mickey Harte has included nine newcomers in a squad of 37 players for the 2008 Dr McKenna Cup which gets underway for the Red Hands on the first Sunday of January.
The list of new recruits, as Tyrone get ready to challenge for a fifth successive McKenna Cup triumph next month, includes Eglish's Conall Martin, the 2007 Teamtalk intermediate footballer of the year, who had a brief spell in the Tyrone colours in 1999 when Danny Ball was at the helm. The midfielder previously played under Mickey Harte ten years ago as a minor in 1997, and again as an under-21 player in 2000 when he collected an All-Ireland medal.
Among the eight players called up to the county senior squad for the first time are three members of Dromore's double winning side, Cathal McCarron, Shaun 'Snowy' O'Neill and team captain Fabian O'Neill, who join club-mates Ryan McMenamin and Colm McCullagh in the Tyrone set-up to give the St Dympna's the biggest representation in the new squad.
The two O'Neills recently won Teamtalk All-Star awards for 2007, while full-back McCarron was a member of the 2006 Tyrone All-Star select.
The Dromore trio are linking up with Mickey Harte for the first time, with only Cathal McCarron having worn the Tyrone jersey at underage level. He's eligible again for the Tyrone under-21s in the coming season, while Shaun O'Neill, the 2007 young club footballer of the year, will celebrate his 21st birthday on December 30th and therefore misses out on under-21 football in 2008 by just two days.
Carrickmore sharpshooter Kevin McNally, who recently scored all seven of his side's scores in the Tyrone league final, has made the McKenna Cup squad after a couple of successful trial appearances, and there are also first call-ups for Killyclogher's Martin Swift, Dungannon's Dominic Hands, Killeeshil's Gary Reilly and Cookstown's John Gilmore, another young player who can line out for the county under-21s again in 2008.
Reilly and Gilmore have featured for Tyrone at underage level, while Swift, another recent Teamtalk award winner, and Hands will be involved with a Tyrone squad for the first time in January.
The 37-strong squad includes 28 players who were involved with the Red Hands during the 2007 campaign. The list of players registered includes Brian McGuigan, although the Ardboe star is unlikely to feature in the near future. Others named who could be unavailable for the duration of the McKenna Cup are Mickey McGee, Cormac McGinley and Colin Holmes.
On top of the players selected for Tyrone's McKenna Cup campaign, there are eight players that will be lining out for their college teams in the competition who'll be in the frame for Tyrone's national league assault at the beginning of February. They include 2007 panellists, Raymond Mulgrew, Colm Cavanagh, Justin McMahon, Damian McCaul, Brendan Boggs and Peter Donnelly, although the latter will be out of action for the next couple of months after sustaining a broken arm in one of the recent trial matches staged under lights in Healy Park.
Brocagh's Ciaran Donnelly and Eskra's Paul Marlow also attended the trials and will again be assessed by the Tyrone manager when UUJ come to play the McKenna Cup holders in their opening fixture of the year in Omagh on Sunday 6th January.
Four members of Tyrone's 2007 squad haven't been named in the McKenna Cup squad because of injury - Brian Dooher could be back for national league duty before the end of February, Joe McMahon is out until March and Stephen O'Neill is ahead of schedule in his recovery from an operation and could be ready for some NFL action in April.
There is no date, meanwhile, for Paul Quinn's return to the playing field, the Errigal Ciaran defender still being assessed since sustaining a head injury in the Tyrone senior championship quarter-final clash with Donaghmore.
In all, taking the McKenna Cup list, the injury list and the college players into account, there are 49 players who are still being considered for Tyrone's league and championship squad, which is expected to be announced at the end of January in time for the NFL opener against Kildare at the start of February.
The only member of Tyrone's 2007 championship panel not included in any of the lists at present is Gerald Cavlan.

QuoteThe only member of Tyrone's 2007 championship panel not included in any of the lists at present is Gerald Cavlan.

Thank God for that!  However, it's fantastic to see Brian McGuigan listed in the squad.

QuoteWhy do Tyrone take this so seriously?

Football is deadly serious in Tyrone.

Wasn't Conall Martin in the squad a few years back?  Give us another option in midfield

I hear there's no cursing allowed when they meet Down in the McKenna in Omagh. Malachi Cush will be compere and you can get your face painted. If Malachi's shite you cannot curse at him, especially if you're playing.
I wanna have my kicks before the whole shithouse goes up in flames.

Sure didn't Dromore put an end to the cursing in Healy Park recently when they won your cup O'Neill?

I think Donnelly from Broacagh is good player - why do you not rate him Hardstation ?

o/m the days of the loughshore county footballer seem to be over.  Name 3 plyers from the entire loughshore who would make your Tyrone team,
