Malachy O’Rourke: Tyrone confirm Fermanagh man’s appointment as new football boss

Tyrone player Mattie Donnelly told BBC Sport NI on Saturday that O’Rourke’s imminent arrival “gets me and the people of Tyrone excited”.

“Obviously people of that calibre are few and far between,” said the Tyrone veteran, who is mulling over prolonging his inter-county career into 2025.

“I would be good friends with a lot of people who have played under him and they speak so highly of him.

“If Malachy was to come to Tyrone, the panel of players there next year would surely look forward to it.”

Since memorably winning the All-Ireland title in September 2021 despite being ravaged by Covid-19 weeks before, Tyrone have struggled at championship level.

They were knocked out of this year’s Sam Maguire Cup at the last-12 stage in a surprise home defeat by Roscommon but the Red Hands remain a Division One side.

And with the county winning a second All-Ireland Under-20 title in three seasons this year, O’Rourke will have plenty of young talent to work with.
