Chatting a few Birr lads today Paul Murphy is not in the running it seems to be between Daithi Regan Paddy Kirwan and Donie Franks with the players wanting Daithi Regan!

While I understand players will be reticent to comment for obvious reasons, I'd be interested in asking one simple factual question - how much time did Dinny Cahill actually spend with St Rynaghs last year? I don't expect anyone to say he was good/bad/indifferent, he is the club manager after all, b...

Just from reading the tribune the last couple of weeks Dinny Cahill is going to stay with St Rynaghs and Nicolas Claffey with Belmont! Ken Hogan surely sticking with Coolderry for another year? Is Paul Murphy staying with Birr for another attempt to win back the title? Will Pad Joe be going back to ...

First and foremost congrats to Coolderry on their win yesterday! Forwards win matches and Coolderry have 4 or 5 that can get scores on any given day,Brian Carroll was due a good game and yesterday he played very well,Ryan and Murray also played very well but for me Cathal Parlon was their stand out ...

Looks like John Troy will be the new manager his appointment has to be ratified at a meeting next week!

Best of luck to him!

Great appointment if anyone knows who the best young hurlers are in Offaly its John Leahy!
Best of luck!
Any word on his backroom team?

When I heard the two selectors only one thing came to mind,if the county board had wanted a set up with people involved that knew most about the modern game and tactics and everything that goes along with it then the best appointment would have been Paddy Kirwan along with Brian Whelehan and John Tr...

According to the news this morning Gerry Cooney has withdrawn as well,is it possible that the county board have a big name manager lined up and are just waiting to finalise everything,they bloody better have its awful how long this has been dragged on and on!

I'll be very interested to see who refs the game - if they get Tony Carroll or Brian Gavin who let the players get on with it and don't blow the whistle every time there is contact, then I'd fancy Brosna Gaels by the tiniest of margins. Should be a good game though. Tony Carroll got the intermediat...

Second part of what should be a very good double header in Tullamore on sunday. Tough one to call Rynaghs will be eager to make up for losing last years final and Brosna Gaels will be trying to go straight back up senior,Brosna Gaels will be helped that all of their players have been able to concent...

Looking forward to this final on sunday,its not the two teams I thought would be in it but they have beaten everyone else along the way! Rynaghs have plenty of experience Rafferty Mulhare Martin and if Kinnitty give away frees Eunan Martin will punish them all day long! Kinnitty have plenty of well ...
