Game on.  Tyrone playing out of the Hill 16 end in the first half.

Just a few minutes away from the start.  Stevie and Aidan went through a stiff warm up and look ok.

As you would expect the pitch is in perfect condition with little or no breeze around.  Match due to start at 4.15pm because of the extra time in the minor game.

Stephen O’Neill is togged out wearing number 30.  Good news for Tyrone.  Aidan Cassidy is also togged out.

We were in place at Croke Park.  Armagh have just lost out by a single point in the minor match.  Tyrone remain unchanged for the senior match.  That’s the word in the press box.

With the match not being shown live on TV Tyrone fans all over the world can keep up to date with LIVE updates from Croke Park as the action happens.  We’ll be in place at 3.30pm to bring you all the latest team news.
