Brian Dooher and Feargal Logan’s men had gone 13 championship games without recording consecutive wins since their against-the-head Sam Maguire triumph in 2021
Mattie Donnelly is targeting a hat-trick of Championship wins for a Tyrone side that have struggled to put back to back victories together since landing the 2021 All-Ireland title.
They subsequently lost out to Derry by 11 points in the Ulster quarter-final and Armagh by six in the first round of the qualifiers. In 2023 they lost to Monaghan in the Ulster quarter-final and Galway in the first round of the All-Ireland round robin. Their response was those back to back wins over Clare and Cork to set up an home All-Ireland preliminary round tie with Roscommon.
“Now we just have to see if we can make that three. We are the stage of year now where no matter the draw it was going to be a tough one, and that’s how it has panned out. “We are at home, and hopefully with the backing of a big support we can produce a performance that keeps us in this competition.”“That is something that we are going to need at this stage of the championship, a good variety of scorers from all sections of the pitch,” said Donnelly.
