Dooher to start on bench for Tyrone

Brian Dooher will have to settle for a place on the bench when All-Ireland champions Tryone take on Derry this weekend.

Despite overcoming a groin injury, the Tyrone captain has not been named in the starting line-up for Sunday’s clash at Casement Park, reports The Irish Times. Dooher was sprung from the bench against Armagh and will expect to play some part against Derry but manager Mickey Harte has named an unchanged side for the Ulster semi-final.

Derry are due to announce their side tomorrow evening.
