Arlene Foster makes good on her promise to cheer on Fermanagh at Ulster final

Scenes in Clones!

Three weeks after sending on congratulations to 'my fellow county men' of Fermanagh, DUP leader Arlene Foster has gone a step (or several steps) further by showing up at St Tiernach's Park to cheer them on. Fermanagh shocked Monaghan in the Ulster SFC semi-final and were on their way back home, on the team bus, when Foster's kind tweet was spotted. Ciaran O'Brien got back in touch sharp enough and invited the Fermanagh politician along to the final. https://twitter.com/C_Mac888/status/1003326115493097472 Few expected Foster to take the Fermanagh lads up on the offer but she expressed her gratitude and her schedule was cleared. Sure enough, with the Erne County taking on Donegal, Foster showed up 45 minutes before throw-in. Outside St Tiernach's, Foster was greeted by Ulster GAA President Michael Hasson and Heather Humphreys TD. Brendan O'Brien of the Irish Examiner was on hand to get this video of her entering the main gates. https://twitter.com/byBrendanOBrien/status/1010862358200242178 There was quite the scrum as GAA fans and the media photographers jostled to get some photos and videos of the historic moment, as the Democratic Unionist Party leader took her seat. The occasion was momentous and social media was abuzz, especially when she stood for Ireland's national anthem Amhrán na bhFiann. https://twitter.com/BBCRichardM/status/1010873952577769472 https://twitter.com/ChrisHazzardSF/status/1010871593218789384 https://twitter.com/GerBhoy_67/status/1010872000804478976 https://twitter.com/CllrDesCahil/status/1010872551105589248 https://twitter.com/johnjoemoortown/status/1010875158259789824 https://twitter.com/SorchaEastwood/status/1010873862974734336 As for the game itself, Donegal got out of the blocks quick enough and led 2-5 to 0-3 after 30 minutes.
