Tommy McGuigan

In his championship debut against Fermanagh, McGuigan scored three points, as Tyrone were playing through difficult portions of the match.^[1]

This performance was later dulled somewhat, "by the fact that he has picked up a broken wrist, and may miss the rest of the Ulster Senior Football Championship, should Tyrone progress".^[2]

During the 2008 championship, McGuigan scored a vital goal at the start of the second half of the 2008 All-Ireland Final. He finished the season with a tally of 1-21 (24 points).

On 29 July 2014, Tommy McGuigan posted a tweet, which was described as antisemitic and which he later removed.^[3][4][5][6] McGuigan later apologised for the remark, claiming it was written as a joke and was meant as "nothing serious". McGuigan said he had passed his number onto a London-based Jewish columnist, who requested to speak with him in order to confront him over his comment. "I said it was meant as a joke, nothing serious. He agreed to let it go."^[7]

On 3 August 2014, McGuigan posted a message with a racist and derogatory term for Hispanic people on his Twitter account: "“@ryanbulldog83 @McIlroyRory course. Sergio shitting his Spick pants. Happy Gilmore cunt”" in reference to Rory McIlroy passing Spanish golfer Sergio García at the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational golf tournament.^[8][9]
