Re: Offaly Senior Footballers 2024

Make no mistake here lads that’s a shocking bad result dress it up what way you like but to lose to an at best 3rd sting Dublin team is not good enough The physical size of the Dublin players is streets ahead of Offaly It looks to me that some of the Offaly players have lost ...

Have O Brien , Mcdermott and Poland been involved at senior before, would they be much of an addition or similar enough to whats been involved before?
poland had potential a few yrs back Jack o brien has been on the panel the last few yrs and is a decent. player.

Re: Club football championship 2023

Hard luck to Daingean yesterday seems like they were unlucky enough. It was always gonna be big a ask for Ballycommon so soon after winning the senior B and missing the 3 lads. But they can reflect on hugely positive year for their club and well done to them. Tullamore yesterday qualified for the mi...

U 13 A final was a super game with Shamrocks just about shading it had a few really big and clever hurlers . Well done to Shamrocks It’s Tullamores 3rd under 13 A hurling final to lose in a row which isn’t the end of the world . Hurling is in a good space in Tullamore and bodes well for the future. ...

Re: Proposed change to age grades at both county and club level

There’s a perception that is been pushed by the so called big urban clubs when in fact this has little to do with them and dosent concern them. But to me it looks like a no brainer . The amalgamations have lost sight of what they are about. It’s not about winning championships. It’s about producing ...

Re: Offaly Senior A Hurling Championship 2023

The reason Tullamore were allowed 2 Junior A teams is because Junior in Offaly is considered a competition by leinster Gaa not a championship Leinster treat our senior B as intermediaries and intermediate as Junior A So clubs can have 2 teams in a comp but obviously not in a championship.
