It wasn't to be a winning weekend for Fermanagh in the UIster Senior Football Championship.
Pete McGrath's men lost 1-20 to 1-11 to Monaghan on Saturday.
The Ernemen trailed 1-8 to 1-6 at half time, but were hindered by a series of scoring after the interval which saw Malachy O'Rourke's side notch up ten unanswered points in succession.
Cavan are the next opponents for the Farney County, while Fermanagh will go into the qualifiers.
