Tyrone great Sean Cavanagh calls it a day

One of Tyrone’s greatest gaelic footballers has brought his playing career to an end at the age of 40.

Former Footballer of the Year Sean Cavanagh, who retired from inter-county football in 2017 after 16 years as a Red Hand star, played his last game for Moy at the weekend.

His final appearance saw him lose a Tyrone promotion-relegation play-off at the weekend as player-manager.

He came on as a sub midway through the second half, but was unable to prevent his side’s 2-10 to 1-7 loss to Coalisland.

The result means Moy remain in Division Two, while Coalisland hold on to their Division One status.

“Every minute you have in a Moy or Tyrone jersey, every minute I had was special,” said Cavanagh.
