Owen Mulligan has little sympathy for players who complain of being targeted by the opposition.
Instead, they should take the extra attention they come in for as a compliment, the former Tyrone star contends on twitter.
His tweet comes after his ex-manager Mickey Harte claimed that Sean Cavanagh was provoked into getting sent off during last Saturday's All-Ireland SFC quarter-final between Tyrone and Mayo.
TweetAll week iv been read'n about players get'n targeted.It should be an honour to get that sort of treatment.It means your the best and feared.
