Re: Brian Cowen's legacy of failure as Taoiseach
I was thinking of this thread today when these 2 stories appeared in the media by coincidence. http://www.rte.ie/news/2011/0921/casino.html I'm no fan of Fine Gael's Alan Shatter but I'm delighted this scam that the gombeen Lowry was involved with didn't get off the ground. The rednecks who voted f...

Re: All Ireland Hurling Final
Lads, think ye might be a bit harsh on Gavin. No referee is goin to get every decision right, yes he made mistakes but none of them were match changing decisions. The belt he got on the nose was his own fault should never have been that close to the row or handbags stuff. He tried to referee it in ...

Re: All Ireland Hurling Final
If Kilkenny lose this game they can blame Brian Gavin..he is having a stinker and has been the cause of at least +3 or +4 points for tipp. Don't be swayed by the Kilkenny fans booing (which they tend to overdo). Gavin did fine. Kilkenny did more of the obvious fouling. They got away with Walsh's sw...

Re: Offaly Senior Hurling Club Championship 2011
Summary of this weekends games Rynaghs not as good as I thought,Shinrone could very well beat them in the quarter final. Belmont very unlucky not to get through to the quarters. Tullamore in the quarters again despite not having Shane Dooley and if he's back the next day who's to say they wont beat...

Re: Intermediate Hurling
BOTN, that was an impressive result for Coolderry last night. Surely if they give it a right go they would be well capable of beating a good Rynaghs team. Would David Dooley not have been higher up the pecking order than Seamus O' Connor? O' Connor is a decent young hurler but Dooley is a right goo...

Re: Offaly Senior Hurling Club Championship 2011
Bad game in shinrone tonight no doubt, I think you have to bear in mind Coolderry were missing Brian Carroll, Kevin Connolly, Cathal Parlon & Kevin Brady. Thats 4 out of the 5 lads that were involved with the county team this year!! However fair play to birr in fairness you can only beat whats i...

Re: Intermediate Hurling
I take your point backofthenet but the fact only 17 togged out for the intermediate says something. Players are being held back. I had a Coolderry lad giving out stink about it in work the other day. 17 is a terrible number for an intermediate team that would have a good chance of playing for honou...

Re: Intermediate Hurling
Timber , where are you getting your "coolderry not really intrested in developing young players " line from. Can you inform me with some evidence to back this up, or are you just spouting rubbish to get a jibe in at a certain club? Tacmot will you relax. There was no jibe at your club. Of...

Re: Intermediate Hurling
Brosna Gaels and Ballinamere would fancy themselves after the first few rounds, I think Rynaghs, Birr & Killurin wont be a million miles away from a semi final but may be just a bit too far away. Coolderry could threaten if they get a good quarter final fixture they might up it for the semi fina...

Re: Hurling to return to St Brendan's Park
@BnaMMan God forbid we would have a capacity crowd! Besides both tmes you speak about were held at neutral venus so your argument is irrelevant. Has there ever been one hurling match in OCP that has attracted an attendance over 12,000?? Hmmm, a capacity crowd, or actually locking punters out? If th...

Re: Hurling to return to St Brendan's Park
I have to commend Buck Face, i think youve argued the points correctly and better than any representative so far. I agree wholeheartedly with your opinion, again no vested interest just from a hurling club and speaking with all the players from the club that have represented the county this year and...

Re: Offaly Senior Hurling Management 2012
Someone from outside the county would be preferable for the county job. But the next appointment is vital to ensure the survival of offaly as a hurling county at all. I do believe it is that vital. The way our underage teams are performing it is only a matter of time before we are down behind westme...
