The standard of footballer preparation up to age eight...

Re: The bigger picture (Hurling and football)

Have to agree with most of what you say JB but i think there is hope in terms of the minor footballers coming through. Now people will say hang on we got trounced by Kildare and yes that was a dissapointing performance but i think in the long run this bunch of players will start to take Offaly in th...

Re: Minor Hurling Farce

Have to agree with you 100% O F, last thing i'm going to say on the matter is that that excuse has been used by the armchair fans to not turn up for games and past board members as an excuse not to spend money on underage development. ( By the way i do respect the dedication and loyalty to the count...

yeah i'd actually agree with you magpie i would be worried that Cribben is stumbling his way around a little bit in terms of finding the right team, his tactical dicisions have been baffleing at times. You get the feeling listening to his interviews on midlands that he doesn't know what the next ste...

Re: Offaly vs Westmeath NFL 10/04/2011

I certainly wouldn't be as pessimistic as some peaple on this site, i think the manager is still trying to find his best 15 and if you take into account that there are a number of players coming back from injury and that this team is still a work in progress then there is scope for optimisim.
