Fermanagh football manager Malachy O'Rourke is anticipating a tight game when his side faces Wicklow in Aughrim on Saturday. With one county poised to exit the championship stage, there will be no quarter asked or given: "They will be no pushover, especially down in Wicklow," accepts the Erne County boss. "We were hoping for a home draw, but it's down to Aughrim and they have Mick O'Dwyer with them. "On top of that, they've had a couple of championship games under their belt, so it's going to be a very tight game. "Like we said before the Cavan match, whichever team performs better on the day is going to win it. "There are no guarantees. If we play well, I think we will give ourselves a chance."
