Re: Offaly Under 20s hurling 2024
Wouldn't begrudge lads their day in Croker , but a strange one the u20 b hurling is being played in croke park and the main event is being played in county grounds The atmosphere is much more special in a sold out county ground than a 25% full Croker and given the fact Offaly will account for 90% o...

Re: Offaly Under 20s hurling 2024
Remembering Eoin Downey preventing an Offaly goal last year with a rugby tackle. "Yerra, Cark were rooootless boy!" I hope they applauded this one so. :D https://x.com/CraicOfTheAsh/status/1794101563503333783?s=19 Ahh im sure cork fans have moved on now pretty quick , shir arnt they all I...

Re: Offaly Under 20s hurling 2024
Assuming a sell out early in the week? I note it’s an all ticket game which will stop the fiasco of two years ago where they sold tickets without accounting for the avalanche of U16s and then had to retrospectively put in place a cap on the amount of tickets they could sell. I’d expect it to sell o...

Re: Offaly Under 20s hurling 2024
Offaly vs Tipp it is. A rematch of the 2022 minor final in the same ground.
Cork were robbed and I wouldn’t be terribly fearful of this Tipp side particularly with McCormack out injured.

Re: Offaly Under 20s hurling 2024
Timing may have something to do with the counties being out in football that day to ? Offaly and tipp be playing tailteann that Saturday and cork footballers must be also out to. I'm not sure just a thought. Aren’t Offaly footballers out of the running in the Tailteann Cup? Yeah we are. But still h...

Re: Offaly Under 20s hurling 2024
Unbelievable stuff once again but we’ve come to expect nothing less from this bunch of players. We were far from our best and looked in trouble after twenty minutes but Rigney’s goal swung the momentum and we hit 1-4 on the spin. Wobbled a little bit after halftime but we always looked comfortable f...

Re: Offaly Under 20s hurling 2024
If we are to lift the *checks notes Séan Robbins Cup later tonight we need to address the post half-time lull. This has happened in the Dublin, Galway and KK games where we’ve had strong first halves but thrown it all away in the third quarter and then had to go and win the game again. I’m not sure ...

Re: Offaly Under 20s hurling 2024
There’ll be more than 7k from Offaly.private joker wrote: ↑Mon May 20, 2024 9:38 pm Dublin won't bring anymore the 1000 max. Maybe 7k from offaly. And there probably be two turnstiles open......
We sold out Carlow last year on our own with a capacity of 11k, Portlaoise is a lot closer.

Re: Offaly Under 20s hurling 2024
Stand was around 60% full looking over from the terrace, certainly last 2 sections to the left were fairly empty and there were a lot of empty seats (stand holds 7k), terrace seemed well filled so should be the same around 10k to fill it so 4000 on one side and 5000 on the other would give in aroun...

Re: Offaly Under 20s hurling 2024
No, it was just under 5,000 paid in. It's harder to tell with U-16s so there was an element of guesswork about the 8,000 number, I understand. Do you mean there was only 8000 in total at the KK game last week - 5000 adults and 3000 u16’s????? I’d say in the region of 12-14000 all in last week. Both...

Re: Offaly Senior Footballers 2024
i feel we have been getting rid of managers too fast over the last 20 years since paul o kelly really. are we too expectant of mangers? you cant be blaming managers for player non performance. our u20s dont seem to be progressing as we had hoped for .a lot due to injury and many due to physicality....
