I think if we are going to play Kilkenny this year, then via the groups might be the better way to fo it.
We still have a lot of work to do and maybe the extra games will help.

I thought Kildare claimed they wouldn't hold up the championship over this issue!

Well done to Karol! A top class player and inspirational for Offaly. It's great to see him get national recognition. On another slightly related topic. It think those rival GPA awards are some joke. Mark Foley got it for last month. Best laugh I had in ages. Eoin Kelly's heroics, weren't good enough...

Sorry lads. We ended up on the Country End Terrace. I got word on Saturday that the terrace tickets that were sold in Offaly were for the Country End. On the day as throw in approached, the only tickets available from the ticket booth were for the Country End, so even if we wanted to get into the To...

Very lame from Murphy. Duirt bean liom go duirt bean lei. He knows he made a fool of himself with his "no disprespect to Down or Offaly" remark and is trying to claw back the damage. This is something he doesn't need to go public with. He could tell his players this in the dressingroom whe...

The Town/City End Terrace seems the best place to go.

I wonder if Ryan, Codd and Mythen will feature, if not then it looks a weak Wexford team. Their backline has been keeping them afloat for a few years now, it still looks fairly good. Up front they aren't impressive. Rory McCarty and Micahel Jordan are real journey men at this stage. We should be ash...

Good analysis by POTH, though I'm not sure if moving Cleary to corner back would be good for us. He'd be very exposed to Wexford's tricky midget corner forwards, who would be pacey and quick to turn. Paul Odd might suit him better at full forward. Cleary is much more of the traditional square mindin...

About 37,000, for the double header with Meath and Louth.

The capacity of Cusack "Dunnes Stores Car" Park is only about 11,000. Inadequate for an Offaly vs Wastemeath Leinster championship fixture. If the Wastemeath county board hadn't been so hungry to sell off parts of their ground to various developers, then they could expand it to increase ca...

I think some people here are worried that Offaly may have talked ourselves up too much for this. The press have been all over the "Offaly revival" story and maybe this is a bit premature. I'd be very cautious about the game. Maybe the heavy defeat to Cork has helped focus the players. It's...

I think there is also a certain element of Kildare being sore at losing to little Offaly.
If it was Dublin who did what Offaly did, Kildare would be too scared to risk upsetting them.

You really haven't a clue what your talking about. To be fair you're last few posts are a contradiction. No wonder we're called squirrel eating biffo's.

Cop yourself on!

Nice try pal.
Now shoo back home to Kildare with ya.

Folks, just a couple of things you might get a laugh at. On the Kildare board, lot of their fans are rabidly hoping that Offaly get punished. A couple of guys are being fairly reasonable and are getting it with both barrells from the loony element. http://kildaregaa.proboards18.com/index.cgi?board=g...

I still think we don't have enough defensively capable players at midfield and half forward.
Wexford's attack ain't prolific though.
At least McIntyre will be quick to make the changes if the ship starts taking in water.
