Quigley ready to play his 100th game for Fermanagh
ONE hundred games in the green and white jersey, how does that feel, Sean? “Jaysus, that’s news to me. I didn’t think I had that many under my belt. I had an idea I was close to it but there was a right few I didn’t want to remember, so I was trying to […]
Column: Opinions count for little…
Opinions count for little…but that doesn’t stop us giving them! AS a player I would often try to remove myself from opinions outside of the team.

Columnist:Marty McGrath on Fermanagh’s chances
ON Saturday evening, after my nephew’s Confirmation, we gathered around a computer screen in my brother’s kitchen to watch Fermanagh play in an empty Brewster Park. The gift of correct judgement must have deserted me last week, as I had tipped the Ulster Champions to win this encounter, but happily the Fermanagh boys proved me […]
