Sorry to hear Townman that the great Kevin Heffernan has died, he was an iconic figure in the 1970's and 1980's. Offaly crossed paths with him from 1978 to 1983.
Yes, he did spend some of his childhood in Offaly, possibly Bracknagh, someone will no doubt confirm this

Just some pointless information on the 1962 team,and subject to confirmation!. Mick Ashe was a Kerryman stationed as a Garda in Daingean, he is currently living in Birr, probably retired, and now into golf. I think he may have played for Offaly, perhaps some Daingean Gael will confirm or deny this. ...

Best wishes to all in Daingean. Thery beat Killeigh in that final, and won another title in 1965, by defeating Killeigh.

Tiochfaidh ar la!!

Thanks for response CF, awaiting receipt of application form and car sticker in post.

Is there a problem with Club Faithful?. Having attended the recent launch in the Court Hotel, I contacted one of the CF officers last Monday week, asking for an application form, which was promised. To date not a sign!!!, I then e mailed a request last Thursday, same response or lack of one!!! Can s...

Meath v Offaly 1.45 sunday in kells with Louth v Cavan at 12 in shield final. I presume this will be an all ticket affair :D Maybe lotto ticket? Seriously though if only 7 were at the last game, hard to see much of an improvement next Sunday, with a lot of Offalians heading for Nowlan Park to suppo...

I want to add my best wishes to Brendan on his retirement, and thank him for his contribution to Offaly hurling. A pity he didn't win at least a provincial medal for efforts and skill. A player who if he was in another county might have a Celtic Cross by now. I didn't see any mention on the national...

Fantastic write-ups again lads and lassies. I don't know if TG4 will cover this game? Are they showing games live? Will Midlands Radio 3 be covering this game? Any help greatly appreciated. TG4 are showing the Kilmacud v Oulart game, as for Radio3 I guess they will cover the Erril/Rathdowney v Clon...

Think you have summed the position on both games very well Timber.

Clara 3-13 Ferbane 0-7 Ferbane were shocking although Aidan Keenaghan was the width of a crossbar away from scoring one of the all time great goals.Clara looked lively and John O'Hara scored a couple of good goals.It should be a cracking semi final between them and Edenderry. Tullamore 0-16 Gracefi...

Semi Final Draw Kilcormac/Killoughey vs Daingean/Clonmore Harps Clara/Ferbane vs Tullamore I think the remaining clubs may be hoping K/K progress in the hurling and it distracts them from the football because apart from that I would say they will win the championship .The hurlers must have been all...

My suggestions were: Restrict the handpass. Allow the pick up from the ground. Teams to be 13 a side. Restructure the championship to say 32 teams. The present structure based on the provincial system, based on the number of counties, means some teams start their campaign much later than others. Bas...

Played Sunday.
Killeigh 2-13 Ballinagar 0-3. Killeigh's 3rd win.

Too true Townman Winning Leinster v Louth in 60, what a day that was for this then 12 year old and it got better, 68 beating the All Ireland Champions in a Leinster Semi 71, 82 and on and on, so many long summers, quite a few of them were wet days too !!!! I thought I was the only one to remember t...
