Ciaran Corrigan hopes Fermanagh can build on their excellent home record in forthcoming all-Ulster league clashes with Armagh and Cavan.

The Ernemen outscored Roscommon by ten points to three in the second half at Enniskillen last weekend to claim a superb home win and they’ll be looking for more of the same when they entertain the Breffni County on February 22nd followed by the Orchard men on March 1st:

“We have to make sure we keep bringing it. We have a championship match here too, against Down, so it’s really important that we make Brewster Park a fortress, which it is,” Corrigan, who scored the winning point on Sunday, tells The Irish News.

“I think we haven’t lost a league game in Brewster Park now in three years. We didn’t lose under Rory [Gallagher] the whole way through in the league. It’s important that we keep that going, you just need to get points in this division.

“We got momentum, the crowd got behind us, and everything picked up – but in the first half we were very disappointed, we didn’t bring any aggression or any real hunger. In the second half we did, we drove on, and it was a brilliant all-round team performance. The crowd brought us on too, and that helped."
