Donegal wriggled free of Fermanagh’s blanket of stubborn defensive resistance to find the spaces at a claustrophobic Brewster Park and pick off sublime second half scores on their way to the Ulster SFC semi-finals.

Rory Gallagher isn’t shying away from it. Five games into a division they were favourites to be relegated from, unbeaten Fermanagh took another big step towards a fairytale promotion at Brewster Park yesterday and their manager isn’t blinking at the bright lights ahead.

Liam McGrath pointed a 40-metre free five minutes into additional-time to gain Tipperary their first point after a hectic finish to an otherwise rather poor tie at Semple Stadium yesterday.

It was glass-half-full time for both managers after a hotly contested equalising score by Conall Jones with the last kick of the game salvaged a point for Fermanagh against 14-man Cork in Enniskillen.

Donegal sucked all the energy and drama out of Ulster final day on Sunday afternoon, strolling to a 12-point win against a Fermanagh side that never looked capable of mounting the challenge needed to upset the odds.

Fermanagh 0-12 Armagh 0-7: Where to now for Armagh and the five-year revolution under Kieran McGeeney after this limp, uninspiring, and naive performance, during which they went an entire hour without scoring from play?

Fermanagh 0-7 - Armagh 07: A point each gives plenty to both teams. Armagh go up, after two seasons in the third division, while Fermanagh have to wait the outcome of a winner-takes all battle, on the final day of the season, away to Longford.

Fermanagh 0-12 Tyrone 1-9: Fermanagh dug out the point they needed to avoid relegation, holding neighbours and Division Two finalists Tyrone to a draw at Brewster Park.

Fermanagh 0-9 Cavan 1-12: Cavan boss Terry Hyland lauded the strength of his panel as his side boosted their promotion hopes with a convincing victory over neighbours Fermanagh on Saturday night.

Fermanagh 1-17 Laois 0-10: Fermanagh boosted their prospects of staying in Division 2, with Tomás Corrigan scoring a brilliant match-winning haul of 1-11 to push Laois further into relegation danger.

Derry 3-13 Fermanagh 1-10: Derry boss Damian Barton admitted his side had suffered a McKenna Cup ‘hangover’ in the first half of Sunday’s nine-point Division 2 victory over Fermanagh at Celtic Park.

Tyrone 1-13, Fermanagh 0-9. Two pivotal second-half moments went a long way towards deciding the outcome of yesterday’s Dr McKenna Cup semi-final at Clones.

Dublin’s comprehensive All-Ireland quarter-final win today put the seal on what was a painfully uncompetitive weekend at HQ.

Fermanagh 1-14 Roscommon 0-16: Sean Quigley kicked the winner for Fermanagh three minutes into added time, but Roscommon will wonder for quite some time how they coughed up a five-point lead with five minutes left.

Sean Quigley and Tomas Corrigan combined to save the day for Fermanagh as they came back from the dead to snatch an unlikely victory over Roscommon at Brewster Park.

Fermanagh 1-21 Antrim 0-11

Fermanagh 1-13 Antrim 0-08: They struggled with the favourites tag, but Fermanagh finally got to grips with their nerves and kicked 1-3 in the dying minutes to get past 14-man Antrim yesterday.

Armagh continued the impression that they are moving in the right direction under Kieran McGeeney’s stewardship, overcoming a slow start and the first-half sending off of centre-back, Finnian Moriarty to bag the Allianz Football League Division 3 crown.
