Re: Offaly v Kerry, Leinster round robin, Sunday 22nd May

LMFC Q-Final Offaly v Wexford 1pm LSHC Round Robin Offaly v Kerry 3pm No excuses lets get out and support both teams. Great atmosphere at the Longford game and the support goes a long way to showing the players their efforts are appreciated. No doubt some of the local media and certain ex players w...

Offaly County Board Thread

As detailed by LLKJ in another thread I think a separate thread to voice our grievances around the County Board and it’s short comings for both Hurling and Football is appropriate. At least contributors to the site have a location to post their opinions and views on some of the poor decisions and la...

Re: Leinster SFC Round 1 vs Longford

Well done to all involved yesterday. Played some great Football. The run of scores before half time really put is in the driving seat and set us up nicely to kick on then in the 2nd half. Offaly seem to have stepped up on a solid league campaign and can hopefully push on from here against an out of ...

Offaly v Kerry, Leinster round robin, Sunday 22nd May

Just trying to take my mind off the fiasco that is our county board and their actions or inaction in this case. Just heard that Colin Egan is out for Offaly. Big blow for Offaly. Was really hoping to see him give a big performance as thought the game passed him by in stages against Kerry in Birr. I ...

Re: Offaly v Carlow, Leinster round robin Saturday 7th May

It is worrying that the club delegates didn't persist (or even start) with the questions that Offaly supporters want answers to. Hopefully when everyone meets in 3 weeks to push forward with the Pathway report more questions will be forthcoming from them. Keyboardwarrior also raised the issue of fun...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U3lBDpmGM3I The hurling review/report/plan seemed to be the main focus of the day back then. It seemed urgent and it seemed like it was going to be moved a long as quick as possible. Boland is a complete Joke. There have been other issues but even back then it was gla...

Re: Offaly v Carlow, Leinster round robin Saturday 7th May

Tommy Byrne's quotes is the lowest point of the month. Rock bottom - digging like mad. "There's no real explanation for the Westmeath thing . . ." ". . . and some lads can have an off-day." "There's no real explanation for it (Westmeath) but recriminations are not going to ...

Re: Leinster MHC 2016

Well done to the Offaly Minors. Great to get a win over Laois who have been having a better time of it than ourselves at underage for the last number of years it seems. Who do they play next? and any idea when or where the fixture might be played? Also does anyone have the team lineup? with clubs of...

Re: Allianz Hurling League Roinn 1B 2016

I think at this stage most people couldn't care less about the state of the pitch, state of the dressing rooms or whatever. Last Sunday defeat was disappointing but at the end of the day progress is being made. A top 4 finish was the league goal and that was achieved. I feel we are now going into t...

Re: Allianz Hurling League Roinn 1B 2016

I don't mind the length of the grass really. If Eamon Kelly wanted it long then that's fine. But the surface itself needed to be rolled badly. It was extremely bumpy. That should have been done early on in the week ...... and then with the dry weather we had...... it would have set nicely with a lev...

Re: Allianz Hurling League Roinn 1B 2016

James Dempsey - Done OK but not his usual accomplished self. Got dispossessed coming out with a ball in the 2nd half that could have cost us dearly. Also acme off 2nd best in a race to a ball on the 21 where he probably should have got it. Can't blame him for the goals at all and was probably unluc...

Re: Allianz Hurling League Roinn 1B 2016

There's a serious pep in my step this morning going into work. Well done to all involved. A superb performance by Offaly yesterday where they made Wexford look very ordinary. Lets hope we won't be complacent and put in another solid performance against Kerry next weekend. I wasn't confident in our c...
