Re: The issue of letting the game flow

I was at this match as a neutral today and I'd have to fully agree with POTH. Whatever about the referees performance, and to me it was very poor, but it was actually embarrassing to see/hear the Co board chairman praise the referee for letting the game flow when no.1 this flies directly in the face...

My sources in Belmont tell me that Alan works down that part of the country and that the two lads are housemates in Kilkenny

Re: Offaly Hurling Championships 2014

Not trying to take away from the big game at the weekend but I didn't want to start a new thread. So on a completely unrelated note, people might be interested in checking out Jerome Quinn on twitter. He travels all around the world covering GAA events and posting videos for the GAA. Just happened t...

Re: Offaly county team managements 2014

Any word on who his selectors are yet? I think we need to forget about who we could have got now, we need to get behind Sid and push on. One thing I am sure he has is a winning mentality , 2 All Irelands, 4 All stars, 12 club championships the list goes on, of the managers out there today id say th...

Re: Offaly county team managements 2014

Was Michael Duignan the man they were going to unveil tonight? If he was, then it throws the process into chaos. It might be a red herring and they already have a different candidate lined up. Yep. From what I heard, Duignan had the job. Don't know what the reason for his pulling out is. Also, I he...

Re: Offaly county team managements 2014

Heard from someone that would be seriously in the know that the appointment for the senior hurling is already made. Could be an announcement as early as tomorrow night. And no, Danny Owens didn't get it and was never really in the running for it.

Re: Offaly Senior Hurling Championship 2013

The writing was on the wall for Rynagh's when they only managed 1-02 from play in the first half playing with the gale. And the goal had a large amount of good fortune about it as it came back off the post when Breeder Mullins should really have collected it first time rather than trying to shepher...

Re: Offaly county team managements 2014

A few different people I've spoken to reckon that Danny Owens will get the nod and the reason he'll edge out competitors is the Fianna Fail connection. The county board obviously has a sprinkling of Fianna Fail stalwarts. The same goes for other groups like the Brewery Tap set, who are not directly...

The Drummies are surely favourites to go down? Conor Gath will be a massive loss to them after getting a straight red against Kinnitty

Depends who you ask. He wasn't the only one playing with question marks over their eligibility

Re: Offaly Vs Kilkenny Leinster Hurling Championship

Time to get the green, white and gold geansais out again and get ready to roar on the lads tomorrow. Give it loads, stranger things have happened. The longer we can stay with them you'd never know. I'd actually expect the team to line out pretty close to the one named. I definetely expect to see Hea...

Re: Offaly starting team to face Kilkenny

Correct me if I'm wrong, but is James Rigney not currently serving a 48 week (or some similiar length) ban? It was a Kinnitty person who told me this, seemingly he played illegally while in London last summer. The person also said that the Kinnitty secretary and/or chairman were also handed down the...
