Mickey Harte has qualified his contention that a Division Two team can't win the All-Ireland.

As Tyrone prepare to face Cavan in this weekend's Division Two decider, the legendary Red Hands manager will soon find himself attempting to achieve what he recently said wasn't possible:

"It depends on how you interpret it," he clarifies in The Irish Times. "What I said was a Division Two team won't win an All-Ireland. But you could have a team playing in Division Two, but not of Division Two standard.

"I've got to believe it's possible. If I don't believe it's possible it won't happen. If I believe it's possible it may happen. So I believe it's possible. 

"But I do believe we were above the standard of Division Two. I think last year we played some of our best football. Our worst performance was against Donegal but otherwise we played very well and were very competitive and I don't believe we are a Division Two team."
