Iāve never heard of any former or present panel member expressing concerns or reservations about it. Theyāve been asked enough about it anyway.
Mickey Harte ā Statement
In light of recent speculation, I feel it is appropriate to clarify my situation for the good of Tyrone football and for the supporters who have been with me on this journey for so long.
The 2020 season was thrown into disarray by the impact of Covid-19, resulting in a six-month complete break from Inter-county activity. Accordingly I requested to continue for another season to compensate for this missed opportunity to complete my final term in more normal circumstances. Unfortunately this request was not granted by the Tyrone management committee.
Although I am disappointed, this feeling is far outweighed by one of immense gratitude for having had the privilege of managing Tyrone at minor, U21 and senior level for the last thirty years. I will be forever indebted to the fantastic people of Tyrone, and indeed Gaels across the entire globe. Through the various highs and lows, my family and I have been supported by so many good people from all backgrounds and communities.
It is impossible to fully express in this short statement what needs to be said, but it would be remiss of me not to say a brief thank you.
To the players, from the minors of 1991 to the seniors of 2020, I couldnāt have asked for better. I deeply appreciate your dedication and commitment to the Tyrone cause.
To the various back room teams and County board officials, without whose support this adventure would not have been possible, thank you for being part of the journey.
To club Tyrone and their members, thank you for your endeavours in helping us be the best we could be.
To the supporters of Tyrone, inside and outside the county, thank you for your loyalty and know that you were always at the forefront of our collective desire to succeed.
To my family, who afforded me the time to dedicate myself to this role, it wouldnāt have been possible without your unwavering support ā thank you.
I am blessed to have had the good health to be on the side-line for every game bar one in all of those thirty years.
Tyrone football has given me so much and I sincerely wish all Tyrone teams continued success in the future.

Tyrone GAA have fucked Mickey here.
Mickey shouldnāt have allowed Tyrone GAA fuck him.
Aten bread is soon forgotten.
He should have got 2021.
A full season with McShane, McKenna and Canavan would have given him something that Tyrone have probably not really had since 2005 - genuine forward firepower.
I do think a change could be good but the problem is I donāt see anything that is currently better than Harte from a management perspective in the county.
A lot of players had gone stale, hopefully it takes some of the pressure of Peter Harteās shoulders now and he can deliver on his talent.

Shameful stuff
My sources shall remain confidential.
If canāt say it all then you shouldnāt say anything.
Pat seems to have difficulty distinguishing between being a manager and a player.
Itās A fake account.

Needs big changes
He stayed on about a decade too long. Just two Ulster wins in last 10 years in 2016 and 2017 and not at the races during that time in Croke Park at the business end of the championship.
He was some man in the qualifiers.
There was something very special about Tyrone coming out Saturday after Saturday getting results over the years.
2008 was the last year that Tyrone beat any of Dublin, Kerry or Mayo in the Championship. His touch just deserted him as to how to win big matches. Ultimately history will be kind to him, I would imagine. The last decade of mediocrity will be largely forgotten and heāll be rightly remembered for the three All Ireland wins.

Say what you like about him. He brought the hard consonant āaā to post match interviews
Beat the dubs well in the league though
