Re: Offaly Under 20s hurling 2024

TG4's main evening Nuacht is broadcast at 7.30pm each week evening, which is why the semi-final to be shown live on terrestrial TV will always be the 7.30pm one. TG4 have yet to confirm which game is being shown on TV Wednesday. However, their coverage One game had to be in a floodlight venue for tg...

Re: Offaly Under 20s hurling 2024

Thanks for taking the time to research and post this. Very informative piece. Enjoy the match. TG4 have yet to confirm which game is being shown on TV Wednesday. However, their coverage states a start time of 7:25 and as the Offaly game is at 7, it seems Galway V Dublin will be shown. Seems like a m...

Good man - make it about yourself anyway. Poor comment above...I stopped commenting on here over last while, a few posters literally berating anyone who opposes the "all is well" narative launching personal attacks with no one monitoring tone of whats being posted..posters being personally...

Re: Offaly Under 20s hurling 2024

No, I won't help you out. If the point you're trying to make is that Offaly have no hope, I certainly won't be doing your research for you. These lads were born in 2004, 2005 and 2006. What went on before they were born is of no relevance here, any more than a Minor hammering from Kilkenny in 1968 m...

Re: Offaly Under 20s hurling 2024

Offaly last played Kilkenny at the grade in 2022 in Kilkenny. Job done. Lots of positives, a couple of negatives. Apart from the first ten minutes of second half, Offaly on cruise control throughout. Good crowd there. Does anyone know who and where we are playing next Wednesday? If Dublin beat Wexfo...

Re: Offaly Senior Hurlers 2024

The man has to work, the same as the rest of us. If he was a shift worker in a factory and had to work today, would there be an issue?
County Board officers put in huge hours weekly. And for no financial reward, they don't draw a salary, aren't paid travel expenses.

Re: Offaly Senior Hurlers 2024

I like that team. Great to have Ciarán Burke and Cillian Kiely back. A few finishers on the bench too. Looking forward to it now. It's championship!

Re: Offaly Senior Footballers 2024

Remember Offaly will be warming up at the Canal End, as they always do. Croke Park use an alphabetal order system to ensure Dublin get the Railway End, but Uibh Fhaili is 32nd and last alphabetically so will always have the Canal End side.

They're called the Kinnitty Mountains round here.

Re: Offaly Senior Hurlers 2024

Ah, that's okay. I'd be concerned if Offaly were winning challenge matches. But I actually feel better now.

And Stick Season in Leix - they just like to play the victim.

Re: Offaly Senior Footballers 2024

Great to win that. Gives a boost to everything GAA in the county. So 'well done' to everyone involved. Great to get to play in Croke Park. You can't play there often enough. Obviously Dublin will provide huge challenges. It's been a while since Offaly played a division 1 team, so the step up will be...

Re: Offaly Senior Hurlers 2024

I expect tickets for Ennis will be scarce enough. Portlaoise it is, can watch Klare v Limerick on the Player during the week when I get time.

Re: Offaly Senior Hurlers 2024

It's shocking. Details revealed only yesterday (Tuesday), 11 days before the Saturday. The Meagher, Rackard, Ring and McDonagh cups aren't deemed to be spectator sports, don't have sponsors and as a result there is zero promotion of the games. Why did it take so long to confirm the details of these ...

Re: Offaly Under 20s hurling 2024

U20 and Minor panels have always been 24. Senior panels are 26 for maybe a decade now, having been 30 previously.
Doon Exile wrote: Sat Mar 30, 2024 6:35 am Very strong looking team. What’s the story with Conor Doyle. Has he been injured?

Panels were 24 last year- not sure when/if they changed from 26

2022 minor panel was also 24.
