Owen Mulligan Steps Away from Tyrone Panel
Thursday 14.07.2011
It would seem that last Saturday night could well have marked the final time that we will see Owen Mulligan in a Tyrone jersey. Sources in the Cookstown area have confirmed that Owen has decided to hang up the boots only a few days before the Round 3 Qualifier against either Armagh or Wicklow. His decision seems to be linked to a perceived lack of game time.
Mulligan featured for Tyrone in five out of the six National League games this year. He came on for the last 15 minutes as a replacement for Martin Penrose on Saturday night and started the Donegal match gaining 51 minutes action. In the opening Ulster Championship match with Monaghan he had 14 minutes action.
The news will come as a huge disappointment to Tyrone fans and more particularly to team manager Mickey Harte and the Tyrone players as Owen has contributed so much to the success of the team over the last decade.
Certainly Teamtalkmag.com hope that Owen can be talked around over the incoming days as no doubt he would have a big contribution to make as Tyrone enter the business end of the season.
