Re: Senior Hurling Championship 2011 Predictions

i think my own club Birr might give it one last throw of the dice, not that they have anything to prove in offaly or ireland for that matter we have had some great times well onto next year, i think people shouldn't write Birrs obituary yet we have players with a lot of mileage but still theres a fe...

Re: Under 21 Hurling

we had a good panel of players in 2010 some were there from 2009 when we ran kilkenny close
the problem was the people who were over them knew as much about training a team as a pig at a dinner dance
it will be the same this year.

Re: Offaly Championship Highlight of 2010

Football: Definitely have to agree with you on the football Long John . Sheer quality that was. He emphasised how far he is ahead of everyone in the county (perhaps his nearest threats being the sprightly anton sullivan & the ever consisten pj ward), and i feel we should sit back and enjoy as p...

Re: offaly footballers of the year???

if Ryan which he is as strong as a bull why isn't he getting a fair shot at the county team
he is about 4 years with the footballers now and still can't get on the team, i think was it around
07,or 08 that he came on again Dublin and was near turning the whole game hit the post with one shot.

Re: Offaly football champions

Howya Umpire! I googled Quarrymount and I see one can become a property owner at Quarrymount, Killeigh, Co. Offaly for a mere €650k. The desirability of an Offaly address. :D :D You'll have to do some searching of a map of Offaly to find the 1901 football champions, Quarrymount. That's because it's...

Re: offaly footballers of the year???

Agree totally with Loneshark and Man from Ferbane. My opinion is Dooley is not in the top 5 full fowards in the county, others will think differently, their entitled to that. For me he has not proved himself in the bigger games for the Blues and Lone shark is bang on, he's playing with decent playe...

Re: offaly footballers of the year???

Week in week out good performances, ah come on, will you not be getting carried away. Against Ferbane and Shamrocks this year he was outplayed by his markers, Ive seen him in two county finals 2007, and 2008 and he was useless in both, actually one of Tullamores worst players in both. What are you ...
