Re: Allianz FL Division 4 2013

Re: minor football and hurling
Down by 8 points before HT & won by 11, that is a great result for Offaly and some turn-up for the the Royals who have been talking, not just Leinster , but All Ireland. Of course they are not out as they get another chance but I loved the head-line on Hogan Stand "Steam-rolled". Well ...

Re: Hurling Man – a Breed Apart
This has to be the most stupid attitude of all. Wont go to support club or county in Tullamore but we can be sure will go to Thurles to see other clubs/counties. I have attended games in Tullamore & Birr ( and back in the day played in Tullamore & Birr) and it would never have been an issue ...

Re: Hurling to return to St Brendan's Park
Should we hold fire on this debate until we know SBP is ready for games like national leagye or All Irl games.
I look forward to seeing a finished SBP

Re: Allianz-Hurling-league 1B
See Tommy Byrne is also on about "League restructuring" Of course its that all the so-called hurling counties (or some of their CB Officers & former "stars") seem to think they have a right to be in & stay in Div 1. They all seem to forget that they have to be good enough...

The main pitches are listed on:

Re: Allianz FL Division 4 2013
Yesterday I might have sounded a bit negative and made some criticisms and I will always point out flaws BUT I am delighted that the lads have gained promotion. Yes they play defensively but Tipp were even more defensive and it did not work for them !!! At least there is a system and they are learni...

Re: Allianz FL Division 4 2013
On the attendance: The O'Byrne Cup was well promoted and Club Faithful was really getting goingthen. This thing of managers talking down the League (mostly those in Div 1 & 2 ) does not help attendance but at least I was happy to be there for a promotion win. As for the game: Great to win and go...

Re: Allianz-Hurling-league 1B

Re: Allianz FL Division 4 2013
This team are not world-beaters but they have put in the hardwork in the games I saw this year and are obviously much fitter than last year so the work must be being done in training. I have to admit not being to a lot of the games in recent years as I had another involvement but hell or high water ...

Close run by the sounds of it but a win is a win is a win...............
That form will hardly trouble Limerick but hopefully the players can lift it ...........

Re: All Ireland Club Hurling Championship 2012-2013
Plain of........... There were in fact 2 wrong line ball calls, the one off the Thomas number 2 boot & the one off lads hand as well as the late 65 when the defender drove the ball over the end line ( but those watching TV: was it already wide and defender just wasting time hitting the ball away...

Re: All Ireland Club Hurling Championship 2012-2013
Think Saints give edged it with a little bit more in attack and Congrats & Well done to them. Now if Mr Sexton never again refs an Offaly team it would help but his sending - offs were off the wall. OK maybe the first one but not long before there had been a very nasty chop on a K/K wrist ( Slev...

Re: Allianz FL Division 4 2013
Delighted I was able to get there today. OK it was Carlow who dont rate that high but a win is a win. Some impressive displays. Brian D would be my man of the match and heoften drove forward impressively. Paul McC also did well at the back and Sean Pender got upfield to score the important first goa...

Re: All Ireland Club Hurling Championship 2012-2013
I like the positivity of that forecast.
I would be extremely happy if K/K do it even by 1.
Best of luck lads.
