Re: Offaly Under 16

Re: Change of perspective on CB
You now know how frustrating for CB it must be to see Niall Mc stating that they got "no support" from the top also when there is 120k spent on gear/physio etc. It also is frustrating for people who are helping out with clubs, and working hard to develop players in such a toxic environmen...

CB wouldn't have thought of this
I hate to flog a a dead issue here but below is an article from the Roscommon GAA website detailing how they came up with the idea (while clearing up some misinformation as well) of providing high calibre transport for their teams while at the same time making money that can be pumped into the the r...

Re: Brian Carroll wants more investment in training faciliti
Topic title edited, no need to personalise the subject. all Fair point, wasn't trying to, i'm not trying to give the board a hard time here i just think Carroll hit the nail on the head when he said that the players are always asking as individuals and as a team how they can improve themselves yet ...

Brian Carroll wants more investment in training facilities
Brian Carroll fears Offaly soon won't be able to field inter-county teams if the county board doesn't start investing in training facilities and its underage structures. Just like their football counterparts, the Offaly hurlers have had to travel outside the county to train in the lead-up to this we...

Football that is and don't forget the hurlers only stayed in Division 1B via a relegation promotion playoff and its not like there is an abundance of talent coming from the minor ranks in hurling is there? Unless the county board decide to sit down and come up with a workable step by step developmen...

Re: One good group not enough
I've been doing some thinking on this recently and given the promise that the minors have shown this year in football it is encouraging but long term down the line with the lack of a proper structure in place having one good minor team just isn't going to be enough to get us out of the mire we are ...
