Mickey Harte has vowed to continue as Tyrone manager in 2016, despite the disappointment of losing the All-Ireland SFC semi-final to Kerry.

The Ballgawley man confirmed to Sky Sports that he will stay on next year for what will be his 14th season in the hot-seat.

Harte is the longest-serving inter-county football manager by some distance, having taken over the Red Hands at the end of 2002. Since then, he has delivered three All-Ireland titles (2003, '05 and '08), four Ulster titles and seven Dr McKenna Cups.

The fine performances of his new-look team in this year's championship have undoubtedly influenced Harte's decision to continue.
