So we have a few injuries but then so do Kildare with 2 important defenders, Doyle & O'Grady out & the recent retirement of Peter Kelly. So if we can get enough good ball to the forwards the novice Kildare defenders could be in trouble. Then Kildare have Dan Flynn back and McCormack who missed last ...

anything on his football with Tullamore...…….in the early sixties...……. Later on Drumcullen did field in Junior football and I played against them at least once. The game was in Birr and we scraped past them ( semi final I think) on our way to losing the County Final !!!!!!!!!!!

RIP Paddy Saw him in County Finals but memory has faded but the glorious June day in 1969 when completing a treble in Croke Park by dethroning All Ireland Champs. Wexford Paddy was magnificent...…… He was also a fine footballer and won a County Senior with Tullamore...….(allowed to play as Drumculle...

That Saturday in Thurles is a memory for a lifetime. Loughnane tried every lie & dirty trick in his book but we out-hurled them. I had a travelling companion that day... My Parish Priest and he a proud Cork man. He despised Loughnane for lies dirty tricks and lies and that's before his "3 priests" l...

Not to burst a balloon but was there not an unfortunate Championship meeting and replay in 1949 with Westmeath, Now I was only a year old but living in Doon and attending school & church in Ballinahown in Westmeath in the Fifties and early sixties we lived the rivalry every day. Kevin forgets that f...

Would some Pre-Season games not be useful, in the month or so before the Leagues start. It might get teams started and ready for the Leagues and thus the Leagues might get a bit more competitive and respected,,,,,,,,,,,,, A Senior, Inter & Junior in hurling & Football, alternative wee-ends, if need ...

Had a quick look at the plan

Adult football in Club Month (April) ONE GAME...………..with 2 in March,

I live in Kildare and clubs have their third Adult Football game this week-end...……. (Pre season Cup games)

More progress needed...

Well done all --- great to win in Drogheda,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Did they check if Birr was OK before it was postponed ?

Searingdrive: I was there for the stupidly awarded peno (Ref Tom Cunningham Waterford) in the 60 semi--McCarten charged into a few Offaly defenders, well outside the square, and bounces back off then onto his ass and was given the equalising peno……… I was not there in 61, locked up in boarding schoo...

If you listen to some of the old timers 'the hurling crowd' (code for Fr Vaughan) lost the 1961 All Ireland by refusing to bring Peter Nolan home from New York; this is usually accompanied by a description of Nolan's outstanding display on Sean Purcell in a Railway Cup game. Now that was one of the...

Was not at it BUT A WIN, I'd take that any day...…..

Did think it would be handy after the 8 goals but 2 League points will do grand.

Great to see that kind of expertise and experience being harnessed. The finance committee certainly looks like it is a huge improvement on what has gone on before.....

I can see the Management Committee on the Official Offaly GAA website but not the sub-committees. Where did "jimbo" find them ??

O'Byrne Cup semi-final
At O'Connor Park
Offaly 0-16
Westmeath 0-11

Well done lads.....

Now that 1954 got a mention, can the win be repeated....

Like feirmeoir I would like to see the U20 lineout or even Panel.
