Re: Severe lack of Offaly O’Neills Gear on website

I see a new Offaly jersey is on the way according to the Offaly section of the O’Neills website. I’m surprised by this as in the recent past we have allowed our jersey to complete a 3 year cycle and then change. The current iteration has only done 2. Anyways hopefully it will be released (along wit...

Re: Meeting In Tullamore

What happens if another rival “high powered” group emerges in conflict with this group? Or an even higher powered cabal comes into play? All sorts of explosive action would result then.

Moneygall (in Tipperary for the GAA): Cullenwaine 703, Templeharry 210, Barna 156, Dunkerrin 359. TOTAL 1,428 Shinrone: Shinrone 965, Cangort 213, Ballincor 160. TOTA...

Re: Memories of an Offaly man in Croke Park

Was there ever definitive proof as to whether the ball went over the end line in the 82 Leinster final ? Matt Ruth couldn't believe his luck and nearly missed as I seem to remember. Would we have handled Cork in an AI final that year ? I think in 82 we played as well as any year we won an AI I reme...

Re: Offaly GAA Media Access

Secondly, in the modern era these things aren't put up on social media for likes and hits, they are put up there because there are a lot of people who consume their news in that way. exactly as I mentioned a few weeks back. Midland sport uploading two pictures making a mockery of our young hurlers....

I remember the time you phoned into TV3's now defunct late night sports show and verbally abused Keith Barr live on air. Aidan Cooney was shocked!

Results Clare by 4 Kilkenny by 12 Galway by 8 Tipperary by 3 Dublin by 5 Antrim by 4 Armagh by 16 Don Hurley ...........75 + 13 = 88 Conard...............72 + 11 = 83 Ji...
