Re: Un Cambio Es Bueno

Townman, It is very easy to castigate all of the County Board and blame all and sundry on it. However, I will remind you that one member of the County board is Andy Gallagher, the ONLY Offalyman to date to have managed Offaly to an All Ireland senior hurling title in 1981 and he is from North Offal...

Re: Offaly vs Tipperary - 2014 All-Ireland SHC qualifier Rou

Ah lads there is optimism and there is head in the clouds optimism. It's only been 4 weeks since we shipped a 26 point beating and now we are going to give tipp a game. Does anyone actually believe we will have improved enough and that management will have learned enough in that time to get us near ...

Re: CB wouldn't have thought of this

http://www.gaaroscommon.ie/clubrossie What they don't mention is that clubs in the county were told by the county board that they had to sell a certain amount of them, regardless. Nothing like putting a gun to the head of the sellers to get things moving. Are you saying that is a good or a bad thin...

Is there something you are hinting at there OF?

Re: All-Ireland Hurling Qualifiers Round 1 Antrim v Offaly

Agree Bula bula...... as far as i am aware, Tullamore is the max width a pitch can be......similar to croker......unsure about length but wouldnt be far off and it is the width that creates the space anyway......Lazy journalism Glad the lads won but in one way, it mightnt be a great thing for Offal...

Re: All-Ireland Hurling Qualifiers Round 1 Antrim v Offaly

Absolutely delighted. Delighted for the players and management who have been under savage pressure. Great fighting spirit to dig out the win in those circumstances and also being behind so close to the end. Looking forward to a report from anyone that made the long trip as I only caught the Sunday g...

Feckin Ger Loughnane! Haven't posted in ages but this man has just annoyed me no end.

He also is allowed talk the waffle on RTE and even obvious ridiculous opinions like i...
