 Fermanagh GAA Online Home
Fermanagh had now regained control out around the middle and they used the long ball in to their forwards to exert increasing pressure on a beleaguered Monaghan defence so that by the 28th minute they had opened a six points lead and Monaghan were visibly struggling.
Fermanagh rallied briefly around the half-hour mark to draw level at 1-5 each with two points from Rory Gallagher and one from Sean McDermott, but Monaghan picked up the pace again in the final minutes of normal time to forge ahead by two points from Damien and Tom Freeman.
Within two minutes of the restart, Fermanagh's recovery was underway when they were awarded a penalty after a foul on Rory Gallagher and he despatched the shot to the Monaghan net to reduce the arrears to the minimum.

For whatever reason, an Archdale and a Cole were elected for Co. Fermanagh at the general election later in 1852, and a Cole succeeded Whiteside in the representation of Enniskillen in 1859.
The earliest document is a grant from James I to Capt. William Cole of the manor of Cornagrade, in the half-baronies of Coole and Tirkennedy and barony of Clanawley, Co. Fermanagh, 1611.
They derive from the Cole family of Florence Court, Enniskillen, Co. Fermanagh, Barons Mount Florence (from 1760), Viscounts Enniskillen (from 1776) and Earls of Enniskillen (from 1789), all in the peerage of Ireland, and Barons Grinstead (a corruption of Grimstead) in the peerage of the United Kingdom (from 1815).
