Justin McNulty's side are facing another season in Division Three next year.
Justin McNulty believes his players lacked the required fight to deserve victory away to Fermanagh on Saturday.
The O'Moore County left Brewster Park empty handed, losing on a final scoreline of 2-13 to 1-14.
Fermanagh went into the game without a win but were benefited from a Rob Tyrell red card in the first half.
That result ends Laois' slim hopes of promotion, and McNulty says they can no complaints:
Laois are back in action on Sunday for the last game of their campaign against Division Three table toppers Down.
Throw in is set for 2pm in Esler Park.
