What we should all do from now until championship is start a topic each, post up our own starting 15 and upd...

Worst Christmas gifts

You'd have the usual suspects; socks, soap on a rope, Old Spice etc.
This year we have a new entry.

Some poor unfortunates around Moate, Kilbeggan and Athlone got these pyjamas as Christmas gifts:

League matches on TG4

In today's Belfast Telegraph
--

"The Donegal v Tyrone game will, of course, have considerable appeal for Ulster fans and the deferred screening of the Offaly v Westmeath clash will also whet appetites."

Meaning we can watch out for ourselves on telly in the pub after!

O'Byrne cup vs. Leix

On Sunday January 2nd. A good chance to stretch the legs after the Christmas.
Any ideas what the venue will be?

What about the scoreboard?
Will there be three columns on it?

Will the sports results be read out like:
Offaly 5-2-17
Westmeath 1-1-6

I'm with Doon Massive on this one. We want the wristy flicks of yore...AND we also want to see timber dispensed. I'm never one to to have unrealistic expectations...but Regan will deliver all of this! Lone Shark... "Whose side are you on, son?" "Our side, sir." "MARINE!"...

Nearest thing there is would be the Setanta review of Offaly's 1998 All Ireland winning campaign.
The Joe Dooley "This is your life" video would be somewhat relevent too.

I think Daithi Regan is just the man we're looking for. We lack steel at the moment. Back in the 90s we had the likes of Hanamy, Rigney, Martin, Duignan and Regan who could use timber effectively if an opponent tried to intimidate them. If Regan can harden up our squad, we'll become a team that comm...

Re: suggestions from turk for the interviews

Regan Weir John Byrne Brady Conneely Rigney Mannion Lads, I'd be only happy to do this interviews, dressed in a shark costume, provided I had an adequate budget for booze for myself and the interviewee, and if I was wired up with someone giving me the questions to ask in my ear.
