Re: Offaly Senior Footballers 2024

Sometimes a losing team official does see things both with their own team and sometimes with the team that beats them..Sligo will certainly show really where we are...I see elsewhere supporters seem to think we are ahead of Laois for example as they are Division 4...take Waterford out of Division 4,...

Re: Offaly Senior Footballers 2024

Good 1st half, great to see Declan Hogan back, huge difference in the defence..we can only beat whats before us but Wicklow are ferocious poor this game and all league..

Re: Offaly Senior Footballers 2024

No need to panic yet. No need for anyone to get desperate either. There was always a reasonable prospect of Offaly reaching the end of February without any points on the board. That likelihood was considered by Lone Shark on page 3 of this thread late last year. Wicklow and Limerick are in the same...

Re: Offaly Senior Footballers 2024

totally agree, worth posting up above under these comments were made, the last few posts are just about results in general and relegation etc..nothing in last few posts mentioned any one individual to be fair..

Re: Offaly Senior Hurlers 2024

Offaly shot wides too remember during 1st half, Clancy blazed over when a goal might have been on, we shot a good few wides too when trailing in 2nd half when we were threatening to come back into the game somewhat 3/4 way in, so wides were crucial on both sides but more so on our side as we lost in...

Re: Offaly Senior Footballers 2024

amazing now how our last 3 games were "always going to be important games"...if i remember right the Clare game was chalked down for a win, as was the Antrim game..afer 4 games, including Antrim and Clare, we have zero points, history and records wont record hard luck and poor game managem...

Re: Offaly Senior Hurlers 2024

Curious to know how we would have went had Cillian Kiely not gone off injured, he was having a massive game..we did regroup after abit but he was ha in a serious game and was dictating play from his position..I don't think KK had any answers upto time he went off, breeze was a factor i know but ta n...

Re: Offaly Senior Hurlers 2024

Kk really turned it on. 1 10 to 2 points in 2nd half it was actually 1-18 to 1-05 over full second half...Kiely was a mammoth loss..knew the minute he went off..he "got a belt from a loose swing" from John Donnelly...indeed..how lucky for Kilkenny it was described as such..Kiely was on fi...

Re: Offaly Senior Hurlers 2024

Offaly doing excellent, credit where its due, we have the breeze in first half, Kiely going off having played so well is a pity/worry...lets hope they stick to what they are doing so well...keep it going lads...

Re: Offaly Senior Hurlers 2024

Have to be honest in my opinion on the King/O'Connor face guard sending off, firstly David King grabbed and held O'Connors face guard, the two of them "werent at it" which brushes both into the guilty arena is unfair, O'Connors reaction was more disorientation of where he was as such, they...

Re: Offaly Senior Footballers 2024

the hurling trend f a few years ago is now slipping into football, our wonder prodigy forward being moved back to defence...we wonder then how the opposition goal keeper can play outfield (as good as)and have a blinder of a game...we need to score more than the opposition to win as we all know..wher...

Re: Offaly Senior Footballers 2024

And the team that beat us were obliterated in Leinster final, we dodged a bullet there..ok, yes it would be nice to get to a Leinster final but when we do we need to be competitive at least in it..an anihalation would push us back more if that is actually possible..

Re: Offaly Senior Footballers 2024

Re: Offaly Senior Footballers 2024

i would never redicule any player..they are individuals at the end of the day..our woes are a combination of a weak club structure (which some think is not)and management during games as opposed to coaching at inter county level (surely we are doing 80/85% of what other counties (top) are doing..if ...
