Tyrone legend Stephen O’Neill is eyeing a 10th All-Ireland medal as the Red Hands take on Roscommon in tomorrow’s masters final at Breffni Park.
Having also won a minor and two under-21 titles, another masters crown would bring O’Neill’s Celtic Cross count into double figures.READ MORE: Malachy O'Rourke on why he took the Tyrone job, his Glen future and links with Derry “Masters football is enjoyable and it’s a good day out with all the youngsters there and it’s just a good family occasion. It’s a wee bit more relaxed than club and county championship games as you can enjoy it more and it keeps older people like myself involved in the game.
“You need fresh legs and men that are coming 39, 40 or 41 to revitalise the squad every year. It’s good to have them as they add that bit of freshness and pace to the team. We have a well balanced team and anybody that comes off the bench is playing their part as well.”
