Monaghan look set to be without centre back Gary McQuaid for Sunday week's Ulster SFC opener against Fermanagh at Brewster Park. McQuaid underwent a hernia operation three weeks ago and hasn't been able to resume training since. A concerned Monaghan chairman John Connolly said: "With the game against Fermanagh just 10 days away, it's definitely not looking good for Gary. "Obviously he's lost a bit of fitness during his spell off the team, and he'd need to get in a few training sessions before we play Fermanagh." There is better news concerning midfielder Eoin Lennon who has made a full recovery from the ankle injury that troubled him during the recent NFL campaign which ended in a loss to Westmeath for promotion.
