Tyrone name team as Derry delay

Tyrone manager Mickey Harte names an unchanged side, for the clash with Derry, whereas the Oak Leafers are besieged with injures and suspensions. By Patrick O'Brien - 19/06/09

Tyrone captain Brain Dooher will start the game on the bench and is likely to make impact on the game as a substitute just as he did for the game against Armagh.

However, Derry have delayed the naming of their team ahead of the fixture as they recently have suffered a flood of injures and suspensions to the squad resulting in the delay.

Of the missing, Enda Muldoon, who scored 1-3 the last time the sides met in the championship will be most sorely missed, as he has a broken foot.

James Kielt too will miss the game as he is suffering with a broken jaw, Patsy Bradley will too be forced to sit out as he is recovering from a knee problem and Paul Cartin will also miss out due to a groin problem.

However vice-captain Niall McCusker may well feature in the game after he has recovered from a groin operation.

To add to Derry manager Damien Cassidy’s worries team captain Fergal Doherty, James Conway and Brian Mullan are all suspended.

Tyrone XV v Derry in the Ulster SFC semi-final in Casement Park, Sunday, 2.00pm:

J Devine, PJ Quinn, Justin McMahon, R McMenamin, D Harte, C Gormley, P Jordan, K Hughes, E McGinley, M Penrose, T McGuigan, Joe McMahon, S O'Neill, S Cavanagh, O Mulligan.
