Harte and O’Neill unlikely to feature in 2026published at 15:46 GMT<\/p>\n

Scotstown 1-6 St Brigid’s 1-10 (HT)<\/p>\n

Tyrone manager Malachy O’Rourke says that Peter Harte is “probably not going to commit” to the Tyrone cause ahead of the 2026 season, while Rian O’Neill looks set to sit out Armagh’s campaign.<\/b><\/p>\n

O’Rourke was speaking after the Red Hands opened their campaign in the Dr McKenna Cup with a 2-13 to 0-17 win away at Armagh.<\/p>\n

Mattie Donnelly who was also a part of the 2008 All-Ireland minor winning side with Harte, contributed 1-2 on the night.<\/p>\n

“I think Peter, at this stage, is probably not going to be able to commit, unfortunately. Peter has given so much service to the county, he’s a brilliant role model for all the boys, he’ll be missed greatly,” O’Rourke told BBC Sport NI.<\/p>\n

“We’re never going to close the door on him, and I definitely don’t want to close the door on him.<\/p>\n

“So, if it was the case that he got a wee bit of breathing space later on in the year and he was able to come back, well, then the door will always be open for him.<\/p>\n

“But, at this stage, he’s not able to give the commitment. So, we’ll just have to move on in the short term without him, and we’ll see how things go.”<\/p>\n
