Would imagine those in East Galway would go via Roscrea Templemore etc while South Galway (gort area etc) would travel similar route to Clare which could be via Nenagh. Many of them would use Motorway to Roscrea and go in via Templemore so would expect big delays if travelling that route. If anywher...

Firstly, what an outstanding contest and well done to both teams. The standard was very good in fairness and Offaly showed huge cajones to dig out a draw in normal time. Re our performance / team, we need to start by being realistic as to where we are at with this team. We are a competitive decent J...

Well if it was moved 4 or 5 days in advance when they knew it would sell out, what difference would that have made. Similar distance, similar size pitch, same size goals, better surface, more room for family members who could not get tickets etc. How would it have inconvenienced the players :?: :?: ...

Think some of comments are unfair here. This group got to semi final against all odds. They were getting beaten heavily in most games through underage ranks and it was known they were not genuine contenders for championship unlike teams previously. They did well in earlier games and got further than...

I'd expect at least 15k from Offaly for this game probably at expense of many not going to Croke Park tomorrow. It is biggest game for Offaly hurling possibly since the All Ireland final of 2000. Cork will be well supported, maybe up around 5 or 6k. Lots of stand tickets would have been bought in ad...

It's a big ask for them I think. Dublin topped group beating all teams well incl Louth, who we struggled to beat last time out. One thing you can be sure of is that they will try their hearts out. This group has done really well to make semi final given how uncompetitive they had been through develo...

Given our group is so young, there has to be at least 10 of panel due to sit leaving cert. I'd imagine there are a number of parents annoyed at movement of u20 to 4th of June, especially those whose sons are to sit Leaving cert. Just was this even considered when looking to have game moved. It is qu...

Joe Mac can't be postponed. Two Finalists play All Ireland senior prelim q finals two weeks later. Conundrum is great to have. Lots of good stuff happening in Offaly. We are long way ahead of where I thought we would be. 3 all Ireland finals in 3 years is monumental. The powers that be will decide w...

Brave effort from the lads. They died with their boots on and left it all out there. The few championship games this year will bring them on loads. Few observations. Louth got more impact from bench than we did. Louth are physically a much bigger team. We are very light physically in some key positi...

We are in good spot but next day is HUGE. Lose and its advantage Kerry for 1st place. Also, Kerry and Carlow are two of the better teams in competition. If we happened to not top group, I would not fancy playing Laois in a semi final with the revenge factor coming in to play. Best route for us is to...

Super win. Outstanding in first half and dug in when needed at end with some brilliant tackling. First half was best championship half of football I've seen from Offaly since probably Wexford in 2006. Huge effort by all throughout. Ruairi McNamee worked his socks off and his tackling was brilliant, ...

Lads it’s not just your local clubs under 14 team where there’s politics going on it’s happening at the highest level too, there’s a serious bang of “one of for them boys” and agendas in this Offaly setup. 1. Jamie Evan’s is nowhere near good enough to be starting for Offaly, he wasn’t even making ...

Great to get the win. Not too many championship wins in last 20 years or so. Meath next. We have nothing to fear there. At home I think its a 50 50 game even if they will be expected to win. They are no great shakes as their league form suggests and we have every chance. Hope the supporters come out...

Fair play to all. Great win. Sometimes got lots of criticism here in recent times including from me. Great to beat Laois who have been ahead of us for last 10 years or so. Players really stood up today and lots of panel depth shown also. All credit to players and management. 3 goals scored is nice t...

Louth beating Wicklow means Offaly would have gone through if they won. Hard to win these games without being at full strength. Wicklow was the game to win and if we did, would have got through. Very close group aside from Dublin. If we had all players fit and available I'd be confident we would hav...
