Courtney keen to make most of opportunity
April 03, 2014
Eddie Courtney celebrates after scoring the winning point for St Michaels Enniskillen in the 2012 All Ireland colleges semi final.
Fermanagh forward Eddie Courtney is determined to make the most of his opportunity in the side.
Courtney was a late inclusion in the Fermanagh team that hammered Wexford last weekend, but he managed to score an impressive four points during the match.
Fermanagh manager Pete McGrath drafted Courtney in after Eamon Maguire was forced out of the game due to work commitments and the Aughadrumsee clubman was delighted to get a chance in the starting XV.
Speaking to the Fermanagh Herald he said: "It was a big win and very important to get the win. We really didn't want to get relegated to division four so the win and getting over the line was all that mattered whether that was by a point or by eight or nine as it was in the end.
"Of course I'm happy surely but you could go out next week and not get a sniff of it so you have to make the most of it when you get your chance because it is just not that easy nailing a place down on the team."
