Re: New club football format

Teams like Tullamore/Ferbane/Edenderry/Rode will still have to perform in group stage. Imagine one of them losing a couple of games, as people seem to think by not being interested, then they will have a QF against one of the other big 4, not what they want, so there will be some pressure on these t...

Re: Club football championship 2023

Look, Ballycommon marking was poor, didn't pick up the loose player quick enough, but my question was in general about physios on the field, and possible (inadvertent) interference with play. I believe there is no rule specifically, it' up to refs to manage it on the field of play. You can excuse th...

https://twitter.com/Offaly_GAA/status/1711455377995235801 Just looking for opinions here. In the build-up to the first goal, the Clonbullogue physio is seen running over to a player on the ground, as the play develops O'Neill get up as the ball nears him, the physio runs back near the covering Bally...

Re: Club football championship 2023

Always thought this was going to be tight and the result proved so. Lots of if's and but's from both sides in analysing the match but I hope it was entertaining from a neutral's perspective. A lot was made of the poor Senior A final and a lot of that was down to the weather. Sunday was a glorious da...

Re: Election 2020 laois offaly

Carol Nolan is a sitting Independent TD. But we only hear about her when election comes around. I had forgotten about her as I have never seen any refrence to her doing anything. Maybe she has, but very low profile. She would probably split a vote with any potentian SF candidate as that was her mai...

Ballycommon V Walsh Island is going ahead as fixed as it isn't impacted by the outcome of Gracefield appeal.
Outcome was expected by 11:30 at latest this evening....still waiting.

Re: Offaly Senior Football Team - Championship 2023

how come the cream of U20s in other counties (and we won an All Ireland I stress) seem to be almost automatically in Senior squad of their county the following year and are regular starting in first 15 within another year.. Was just looking at the 2018 Kildare U20 All Ireland winning team, and only...

Re: Club Football Championship 2022

In general have to agree with jimbob's assessment above. Rhode / Tullamore / Ferbane are the picks. Durrow could cause upset in a few games. Senior B is between neighbours Clonbullogue & Bracknagh. Tubber will also be close but can Clonbullogue keep going after such a long season 2021/22? Interm...

Re: Minors hurlers 2022

Could be an avalanche of abuse being fired between genuine Offaly supporters and those blue and white brigands from Tullamore, Croghan, Cappincur, Ballycommon & Doon! Usually it's fully deserved for all of the above! Ahh Lads..!!! jaysus that's harsh. :shock: Well done to the Minors tonight. Yo...

I see it's fixed for Sunday 2pmin Bellefield Enniscorthy. That's Raparees Grounds, nice tidy grounds, obviously not expecting much of a crowd?

Re: Offaly Senior Football Team - Championship 2022

Dub V Wex was the most pointless game I watched (well most of as I gave up) in a long time. Dublin were barely breaking a sweat a Wexford juet meandered up the field and passed the ball back and forth across the field before they got turned over. A bit like that in O'Connor Park today at Kildare V L...

Re: Jersey Colour clash?

Frank, these seem reasonable options, but still would teams stick to them.
Probably the next time we meet a team with the same colour, we will just wear our blues and see what happens.

Jersey Colour clash?

Just like to get feedback from the board on this topic. We have just played 4 league games in the League and in three of those games there has been a jersey colour clash. The current rule is both teams change in the event of a colour clash, and we have done so on each occasion meaning we have played...
