Fermanagh betrayed by patronising qualifier system

Futility (noun): Uselessness, meaninglessness, pointlessness, worthlessness, emptiness, aimlessness.

Sunday’s All-Ireland quarter-final between Dublin and Fermanagh isn’t so much a football fixture, it’s more of an exercise in futility.

Dublin will win. Fermanagh will lose. Chances are, Fermanagh will lose very heavily. There is no mystery about the outcome. No doubt some Fermanagh fans will be annoyed at my negative forecast. I understand.
