Fermanagh have been drawn in Group Three of the Tailteann Cup with three Leinster sides, but there will be a hint of Ulster rivalry with two of them.

The Ernemen, who were top seeds in the draw will face Laois, Wicklow and Carlow in their group.

Laois are currently managed by former Armagh defender and SDLP MLA Justin McNulty. While Wicklow are also managed by a former Armagh great in the shape of Oisin McConville.

While Fermanagh were relegated from Division Two in the National League, Laois were promoted from Division Four as champions.

Wicklow finished in the bottom two of Division Three this season meaning they drop back into the basement division.

Carlow finished fifth in Division Four this season.

Fermanagh and Laous met in the group stages of the Tailteann Cup last year with the Leinster side winning by two points, 1-11 to 1-09.
