Phew!
For anyone that couldn’t make it to the Fermanagh Division One Final between Devenish and Ederney were surely reliant on Twitter updates.
But as it ticked past seven o’clock there were no updates.
Five minutes in and nothing, ten minutes nothing…they’d promised us updates!!

And then. 23 minutes deep into the first half we all got what we were looking for, an update.
Ederney were up by a point leading 1-4 to 0-6.
But where was the person who was meant to be running the account? At the farm of course. their cow calved.

All interest has now been lost on the game, there’s only one question on our mind:

And all is well that end well as anyone dying to know how the final went got updates throughout as Devenish scored a late winner to win the thing.
