Re: Offaly Senior Football Team - Championship 2023

We would rather beat Meath, Laois whoever in the leinster championship than beat them in the TC because it means more to us. Maybe it would be Achievement to win it, but we wouldn't take much satisfaction winning it, there wouldn't be a big celebration, you wouldn't be lining the streets of Tullamor...

Re: Offaly Senior Football Team - Championship 2023

I would say all in all , it's being a decent year for the footballers. We had a chance of promotion out of Division 3 and were a kick of a ball away from a leinster Final. Yeah the Tailteann cup was a disappointment, but at the end of the day we'd get no satisfaction of winning that yoke. I believe ...

Re: U20 hurlers 23

We Shot our selves in the foot with this one. Instead of having about 20,000 Offaly fans in croke park next weekend roaring on our seniors,They'll be lucky to get 2000 up there. Croke park will be a disaster for that game now, they’ll be no atmosphere an glorified challenge game is what it will turn...

Re: U20 hurlers 23

Savage win, what a special bunch of men these guys are. I hear word Offaly will try and move the u20 game back a week to let Mitchell play in both finals . I think that’s the wrong move the double header in croke park would be some occasion. They’ll be Huge Offaly support up there for both teams. Le...

Re: Offaly Senior Football Team - Championship 2023

First off Great occasion and great to be back in Croker on a big Match day. I went up more in hope than in confidence. The final result didn't go our way but we gave everything and we had our chances to win it at the end of normal time but unfortunately we didn't take them. The few points that we ca...

Re: Minors hurlers 2022

As I walked gingerly out of Nolan Park Sunday still wondering what the hell had happened all I could think of was how proud I was of our boys and the performance they were after putting in. Yes the Ref was harsh on us, but we weren’t the first and won’t be the last county to lose a game over a few v...

Re: Offaly Senior Football Team - Championship 2022

An alternative 15 who weren’t on the panel yesterday for one reason or another, plenty of footballers in the county. Would actually be a cracker of a game 😀 1:O’Toole ( Shamrocks) 2:Colm Doyle ( Clara) 3:Eoin Rigney ( Rhode) 4:Niall Darby (Rhode) 5:Chilly Donnelly ( Bracknagh) 6:John Furlong (Tullam...

Re: Offaly Senior Football Team - Championship 2022

The less said about today the better...looks to be the end of the road for Maughan and the current management team. Hopefully the next manager will be given the time to build and develop a squad of the next number of years. I think Declan Kelly deserves a shot at the main gig now if he wants it. Goo...

Re: Offaly Senior Football Team - Championship 2022

Just on the way home from the game, Offaly weren’t at the races everything was brutal … we wouldn’t have bate anybody today … everything was wrong , Wexford owned the ball from start to finish bar a few minutes here and there, Wexford wanted it a lot more …we looked heavy legged … disgusted now

Re: National Foothall league Div 2 predictions

firstly i don't blame Paddy Dunican at all..he thought it was going to be a hop ball as was the case in the first half, so i understand he's logic. Any genuine Offaly supporter had to immensely proud of the lads yesterday what an effort...The best display by our senior side since we ran Down very cl...

Re: National Foothall league Div 2 predictions

the 2nd half was very disappointing Sunday, our shooting and shot selection was awful, especially compared to the Roscommon forwards who were a joy to watch.. but haven said all that i thought we were just getting into the game on Sunday at 0-10-0-06 when Roscommon got there first goal which killed ...
