Fermanagh maintain their 100% record at the top of Division Three, while Derry record their first win.

Three points apiece from Declan McCusker, Seamus Quigley and Barry Mulrone helped Rory Gallagher's men to a 0-13 to 0-8 victory over Sligo at Markievicz Park, a result which sees the Ernesiders join Armagh at the top of the table on six points after three rounds.

Meanwhile, at Celtic Park, Derry registered their first league win of the year, when consigning Offaly to a third straight defeat, 1-15 to 0-13.

Emmett Bradley bagged the only goal of the game in the first half and also floated over four points as the Oak Leaf men held on for victory thanks to late unanswered points from Danny Tallon, Mark Lynch and captain Enda Lynn.
