Question for you Old Yellar, has Carlow done much to grow the game in and around Carlow town in recent times? I know there is a hurling club there, but from what I know they are usually weak and struggling to survive. In a county with around 60K population, if Carlow are to have any chance of sustai...

I believe there are 10 clubs in Carlow that play adult hurling. In Offaly that number is 20.

I believe there are 10 clubs in Carlow that play adult hurling. In Offaly that number is 20.

Reports of Carlow supporters discussing their preferred quarter-final opponents gave an indication that the Liam MacCarthy ranked county might have looked beyond the immediate task. Do you mind me asking where these reports came from? Are we talking about a couple of lads sitting in the stand sayin...

My personal experience is that there is no set procedure for handling such cases and it was pretty haphazard. When I got to the age where I was playing club, county underage and college there was a big grey area over injury recovery, and mainly the onus just was on myself to take care of and the bil...

I agree that Saturday evening or Sunday are the only times for Championship matches. Looks like that is not decided yet, as the exact dates are still TBD.

How far in advance does that get decided does anyone know?

Looking at the fixture list, I am genuinely excited about the championship for the first time in years. They will be 4 good games with teams at our standard with something really tangible to play for. Bring on the Summer.

I generally like your posts POTH, but found this one disrespectful towards Laois. No need for it.

I agree with knockout too. With only 8 teams, you could run it off in 3 weekends - lets say "April for clubs". Lets lads plan their Summer without having to worry about dreaded football matches getting in the way. Avoids the dreaded player burnout potential issue. Also, makes room for way ...

So, is it fair to say that you generally agree with the structure of the championship overall Lone Shark, with a couple Of slight modifications? The changes being: relegation playoff between bottom in Munster and Leinster with the loser dropping and being replaced directly with Joe McDonagh winner? ...

It shows the prospect of ‘playing in a competition where there is a chance of winning something’ is not an incentive for players to get out and play for their county. I am not so sure that I would make the same mental jump as you on that one Plain. You are essentially saying, Offaly are not in lein...

How would a suspension 14 months ago impact this game?

Do you have any details about what happened here Plain?

I was just testing you to see if you'd spill the beans jimbob17 and I'm sorry to say that you folded like a deck chair under only the slightest of questioning

So what types of things are you hearing?
