Antrim 0-16 Fermanagh 0-8:DIVISION TWO leaders Antrim were never really in trouble under lights at Casement Park on Saturday.
A straight red for Ryan Carson on the stroke of half-time was a bitter blow to the visitors who trailed at the break by 0-8 to 0-4.
The loss of their forward was too big a setback for Fermanagh and, despite two early second half points by Tommy McElroy, Antrim took over in the second half.
