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 […]
Rivalry renewed
With 2-18 under his belt, Sean Quigley looks assured of finishing as the senior championship’s top scorer in 2019.
