It's available in Midland Books on High St, Robbins on the Tanyard Lane at the back of O'Connor Square, the Tullamore Court Hotel and Dóchas on Offaly St. It is also likely to be on sale at the senior football and hurling finals. For some bizarre and unknown reason reason, Cards 'n' Things in the Br...

Interview with Martin Furlong by Keith Duggan in today's Irish Times.

I believe he did ask for both and while I acknowledge that it's hard to rebuff the senior manager when he wants both roles, it doesn't necessarily make giving him both the right course of action. The biggest gripe I would have is the way the matter was handled, showing a complete lack of respect for...

Peter Ford did it with Galway in 2005 alright, but an under-21 side with Michael Meehan at the peak of his powers and Sean Armstrong and other decent prospects thrown in will always sail out of Connacht, and then you're only two games away from the summit. John O'Mahony also did it with Galway in 20...

I'm not suggesting that abstaining from alcohol would have seen Offaly safely through to the All-Ireland semi-final at this stage of the year but I believe the social habits hint at a wider malaise which undermined their chances of achieving this year, based on soundings I have heard on good authori...

Taking a cursory glance through some of the posts here, I haven't seen anything about the players' social habits, which left a lot to be desired this year and is something that needs to be highlighted. Discipline and application off the field has been slack. A large number of players going on a thre...

Won't be happening. Coffey rules out McManus return Ciaran McManus won't be coming out of retirement to assist Offaly in their Leinster SFC quarter-final against Kildare, interim manager Tom Coffey has confirmed. Coffey extended an invitation to McManus to re-join the Faithful panel after taking ov...

The book was never "taken off the shelves". There was a delay in the distribution process which has now been sorted. The book was distributed nationwide earlier in the week.

Damian Fox from Tullamore. He spent his best years abroad perhaps and won an All-Ireland 'B' title with London in 1985, and was also in America around that time as well. An excellent ball player who was (and still is!) equally at home in goal or out the field, he was the Offaly under-21 goalkeeper i...

Shane Daly was a talented footballer in his own right and a valuable member of the 2002 team in particular. My abiding memory of him as a footballer is a booming long range point he scored to seal a must-win round robin game against Shamrocks that year. I'm not one for hyperbolé, but it was among th...

I'd perfer Croke Park, this is on Hoganstand. Still I think the following could be a mistake by Hoganstand and Pot Noodle is prob right. Leinster SHC double-header set for Portlaoise 01 June 2010 O'Moore Park in Portlaoise will host the two Leinster SHC semi-finals on Sunday, June 20. All-Ireland c...

The Leinster SHC semi-finals are definitely being played at CROKE PARK as a double-header on June 20. It's a complete flier without any foundation to say they've been switched to O'Moore Park. The games were set for Croke Park before last weekend's results. Check the link on the Leinster Council web...

Stephen Egan's fine, he'll be hurling for Tullamore on Thursday night against Coolderry. Currams should have recovered sufficiently from a broken finger in six weeks, which is the length of time to the Antrim game from last Sunday.

Dooley bluntly said the panel remains open when questioned on the Diarmuid Horan issue, but it didn't seem to be a question he was over enamoured with.

Joe Dooley quote when asked after the match if he could put his finger on why this group of Offaly players consistently fail to close out games such as yesterday's: "Well I thought we finished it out fairly well to be honest with you." This after Offaly failed to score for last 18 minutes ...
