Kernan wary of Fermanagh threat

IT WASN’T meant to be like this. Derry, Donegal and Monaghan were all considered better bets to make Sunday’s Ulster final from their side of the draw but Aaron Kernan isn’t surprised to be meeting Fermanagh instead.

“Not particularly. If you’re from Ulster you get used to the fact that it’s a minefield and you never really know what’s going to pop up. I don’t think too many people would have thought that Down would have beaten Tyrone at the same time, but they did.

“Fermanagh are definitely a team to be reckoned with because, at the start of the championship, most people would have tipped either Derry or Monaghan to win Ulster but now Fermanagh have beaten both of them to get to the provincial final.
