Re: New Minor & Senior Hurling Management
Ah lads, no disrespect to Joe Quaid but being their U16 manager and Camoige manager would hardly be looked upon as being experienced at the top level. Sure this is another lad with little or no inter-county senior management experience. Like Baker, Joe Dooley and greater extent Whelehan, we are alwa...

Re: Offaly GAA is in Some State
Who are the strong teams in minor and U16 at the moment only KK, Ballinamere and Na Fianna. these all go to school in these schools......add in a few more and theyd be Ok if the work was put in. There is a good reason why Birr have dropped and are not winning games! Partially the club in Birr but th...

Re: Offaly GAA is in Some State
Seems to be just musical chairs in county board for last long time. Not massive change occurring. Fair play to current chairman though on sorting the problem of a training base. That was and is a big problem. Recent appointments of managers have been mixed - Pat Flanagan a good one, Whelehan an unsu...

Re: U21 LHS Offaly v Wexford, O'Connor Park, 7.30pm
watched on tv last night and Offaly really put it up to them for 40 mins. The quick turnaround for the second goal was essentially a six point swing and they followed with a quick point after that to finish it...... From there on it was target practice and to be honest, it could have been a cricket ...

Re: Laois v Offaly – Leinster Hurling Quarter Final 7th Ju
Going back to the school issue, all of them Kilkenny lads pick up scholarships through the colleges when they go there.......What would be wrong with Offaly looking after their own - even if it is only a 1000 euro per year....... Their are as many jobs in Offaly per head of capital as their are in a...

Re: OFFALY MINOR FOOTBALLERS 2015
The team deserved more than they got last night and really were the better team. I counted 5 Offaly goal chances to none for Kildare and they will certainly be relieved as they got out of jail by winning that game. Offaly had plenty of chances in second half and only the width of the post stopped it...

Re: OFFALY MINOR FOOTBALLERS 2015
went over to Mullingar last night fairly hopeful and came away satisfied - but just about. Offaly were probably favourites and this tag never suits us as we were slow to start against a well motivated Westmeath. Maybe Offaly took them for granted but we could have conceded two goals in the first few...

Re: Division 4 league final Offaly v Longford
Isnt it great at long last that there is a bit of positivity about an Offaly senior team. Thought the lads played very well today and it was a pleasure to be there to see it. As said already the best part about it was the manner of it. The team played with a committment and enthusiasm and a skill le...

Re: offaly minor hurlers 2015
Agree with dubbiff. this group has improved a lot in the last few months and if they really believe in themselves and go for it, they are capable of causing an uprest. Best of luck to management and players.

Re: Still no Minor Football Management selected yet??
Minor football team playing Dublin on Saturday in first round...... Not a whole lot expected but if they give a good account of themselves after that demolishing last year, its as much as we can really hope for..... they have'nt exactly set the world alight with recent losses to Tipperary and Laois ...

Re: offaly minor hurlers 2015
Woudnt be too down about the result, its only a league but the championship next week V Carlow matters hugely. Wexford have their underage well in order again and we need to do that with our hurling teams. This minor team have definitely improved over the year to date under the managements guidance....

Re: Still no Minor Football Management selected yet??
The Offaly minor footbllers were supposed to be decent this year but heard recently they are down some of their better players with a midfielder from last year who isnt playing this year and a few few long term injuries and some walkouts from some of their stronger players recently from the Rhode cl...

Re: U21 FOOTBALL CHAMPIONSHIP 2015
Wont be a whole lot in it.......Tullamore won minor 3 years ago and include the Bal Durrow players again so they will be strong and probably start as favourites. Vincents are champions but are very young with almost all available again next year and 5 or 6 minors featuring. Could easily end in a dra...

Re: offaly minor hurlers 2015
Dont think playing and hammering them teams would do anything for Offaly.......sure that is C hurling.......How come we are in a league below Carlow, westmeath, Laois etc........Any word on how they are getting on against actual hurling counties?
