Re: Joe McDonagh cup
Birr dont even train for football and have reached junior finals and semi finals and almost went senior about 7 years ago what's your point?? North Offaly people are just as arrogant when it comes to south clubs playing football. We need everyone doing well but if the so called traditional clubs ar...

Re: Joe McDonagh cup
I am very aware there is voluntary work which goes on in OCP but as you said it's not all voluntary which is quiet a big difference towards other fields around the county. Personally I found the timing of the article quiet interesting but maybe that's just me. Joachim and the management did look fo...

Re: Leinster Under 20 Hurling Championship
I wish that team all the luck in the world against westmeath...but to be honest I'm worried about where we are at hurling wise. There is very few south hurlers on the team and people have to start asking the question what has happened? For me taking hurling out if birr has had a knock on affect whe...

Re: Joe McDonagh cup
Haven't posted in a while. The whole situation we find ourselves in is disheartening. I'm not going to add any further to what has been said about the various issues. I hope Joachim can instil some confidence back into the group in a short period of time. Please god he can steady the ship and have t...

Re: Leinster Club Hurling
Attended the Ballyboden Clonkill game last night. I have to say I was really taken aback by Clonkill, who fought tooth and nail. To sum up, Clonkill should have won the game in normal time. Missed some very scorable frees and conceded an awful amount to Paul Ryan (one or 2 were dubious calls, but mo...

Re: Offaly Senior Hurlers 2019
I think Fanning is a good addition alright. He's been involved in a pretty successful Tipperary apart from last year. Keeping good continuity is good also I feel. Despite being relegated to Joe McDonagh last year, I felt that last year had more encouragement than many of the previous few years. Beat...

Re: Leinster Club Hurling
@Wing Back, does Coolderry parish border county Laois to the east, and if it does, what club is on the Laois side - is it Camross? POTH....Up around Ballybritt church, the Coolderry boundary is very close to the Laois Border alright, but I'm pretty sure that Killa Villa and Kinnitty (Roscomroe whic...

Re: Leinster Club Hurling
Watched the TG4 coverage and Brady was blessed not to get a straight red for the wild pull. Ironically, the first yellow that was dubious actually saved him getting a straight red, as it was an easy option for the ref to reach for a second yellow. Coolderry were sharp with their striking and touch ...

Re: Leinster Club Hurling
Delighted walking out of O'Connor park today. Coolderry really had to work hard for it the win. Losing Kevin Brady so early was a huge loss and I was worried as he had broken down a lot of their attacks, but all the lads stepped up to the plate and knuckled down. Bergin got 3 fantastic points especi...

Leinster Club Hurling
Coolderry take on the Carlow Champs Mount Leinster Rangers in qtr final of Leinster. Leinster looks quite open to me this year now that Cuala are out. New Champions in Wexford, and Ballyhale were very lucky to win Kilkenny, I was at it and they were completely out on their feet in the final. Fitness...

Re: Offaly hurling manager??
Not really sure what to say..............
Interesting to hear Eamon Kelly on his commitment to the Laois cause

Re: U21 Hurling Championship.
Well done to the players and management. A real shot in the arm with a convincing win. They went in as favourites and lived up to the billing. Between the U21s, the Celtic Challenge success and the Minors putting in a reasonably decent showing there is a little bit more hope in the future of Offaly ...

Re: Offaly County Board Thread
I believe that a revised version of the Hurling development report is finally being laid before the county board next week. Can anyone confirm this? I accept many peoples views about it being a thankless position being on the board or being a delegate for that matter.........but even allowing for t...

Offaly vs Wexford 2016 Hurling Qualifier - Saturday July 2nd
Away to Wexford it is. Not the worst draw in the world. I think Eamon Kelly will be happy with that considering the result against them in the league. Wexford seem to be on a pretty low ebb at the moment. They looked totally off the pace against Dublin in Croke Park. Wexford will still be strong fav...
