The Benny Hill theme song … going out to all of those wizards on the OCB ….

The words ‘piss up’ and ‘brewery’ spring to mind …

Lads - am I wrong here or does this not give Offaly and other ‘best of the rest’ teams their very best chance of actually getting into Div. 1A? Think about it – what chances have we of promotion from 1B in 2014 under the current format with Cork, Limerick, Wexford with a promotion/relegation play of...

This may need its own the thread but I wonder what was going through the minds of those charged with the development of hurling in the OY county board from 1994 to 2000 when they watched Clare over the last few weeks - a team who won no more all Irelands that we did in the 90s and started from a muc...

I’ll reserve judgment until confirmed but can anyone elaborate on POTH report that some of the Shinrone panel may have made off to EP?

If so, how many are we talking about and were they starters, fringe or bench warmers?

Shinroneman – any thoughts from an informed insider like yourself?

Firstly, I hope I’ve quoted Padraig Boland correctly below.. His comments on Bakers departure are certainly more descriptive than your usual trot-out-the-party-line, trained ape stuff you’ve come to expect from County Board Chairmen nationwide over the years and I think on that note he need to be co...

"why do 15 minutes weights as part of the warm up"



Say it ain't so Joe?

“Tyrone has a population of approx. 177,000- Offaly have less than half of that 77000.”

I think the ‘Very Reverend’ Wille Mc Crea and ‘Lord’ Ken Mc Gaginnis might have something to say about your understanding of the demographics of County Tyrone tkmax!

The scene from OCP must be like the voting when 'My Lovely Horse" made the eurovision final!

BOTN I think your being a little bit harsh in your analysis of how we lost it. We were definately stretched in the last 10 minutes fitness-wise. You were looking at a KK team with a few athletes who could kick on in the last 10 minutes. Your point regarding our midfielders reading the breaking ball ...

I’d be interested to know what the sages of the large ball have to say about this... Offaly football manager Emmett McDonnell has drafted Shane Dooley, Conor Mahon, Dan Currams and Sean Ryan into his squad in the wake of the hurlers' exit from the All-Ireland race. The quartet are all talented dual ...

Monsoon here in Tullamore this morning which might interest those of the punting community. Really looking forward to this one. A lot of our side featured in 08 when we could have taken a very good waterford side in at their prime when some light-touch defending on the day let us down.Our physicalit...

Same as BB. I was in the front of the stand taking refuge from the Gobi desert on the terrace and was sure Parlon would walk after his slap down on Reid. Kelly gave us a a get out of jail card equal to the one Jimmy Cooney gave Mick Duignan when he attempted to remove Alan Markam's torso in '98. The...

Anyone catch the introductory caption for Lowry on Marty the Blowfish's 'Championship Matters' this evening?

'Best Golfer in Offaly'

Could this have been another Eamonn 'stay classy folks' Horan inspired moment?!

A hurling alternative to Tonys proposal.. Baker calls for radical split of hurling's 'big three' 10 June 2013 Offaly manager Ollie BakerOllie Baker believes the inter-county hurling scene would be better served by splitting up the game's traditional three giants Kilkenny, Cork and Tipperary.
