Re: Offaly Senior Hurlers 2024

Offaly will get about a €60k holiday fund for winning the Joe Mc. I suggest the players head off on a well earned break now. For Saturday we should send out an ensemble line up of the biggest timber merchants in the county. Make mincemeat of Cork. Recreate that YouTube clip from a couple of pages ba...

Re: Offaly Senior Hurlers 2024

Great to win, though not necessarily a great win. That doesn't matter though. Offaly toughed it out at the finish. Strangely I never felt we would lose. Despite all the evidence unfolding in front of me. As I keep repeating, a comeback starts easy and gets harder, especially when you have to brace t...

Re: Offaly Senior Hurlers 2024

I like the team named.
It's a statement of intent putting on Shirley and Screeney - we're not minding them, or afraid they'll get hurt. We're sending them out to do a job.

Re: Offaly Senior Hurlers 2024

Around 25,000 expected on Saturday, 18,000 sold so far. I wonder how many tickets have been sold in Offaly? https://www.independent.ie/sport/gaelic-games/hurling/leinster-gaa-hoping-to-break-25000-in-ticket-sales-for-provincial-hurling-final-at-croke-park/a2043012870.html That really is a woeful cr...

Re: Offaly Senior Hurlers 2024

It's nearly 7 weeks since the sides met in Maryborough. It's all well to say that Offaly were cruising and were the better team for the first 50 minutes, but Offaly lost control of the game too for the last 20 minutes and were overrun around the middle in the closing stages. That win will have helpe...

Re: Offaly Under 20s hurling 2024

They were asking for that! Beforehand on the premierview forum there was some talk about how Offaly were going to choke, they were going to sicken Duignan and then fuming at how Offaly were getting the media coverage. However, in the aftermath, there has been dozens of contributors giving fulsome pr...

Re: Offaly Senior Hurlers 2024

Returns should start to come back in the next couple of days. It's not easy to gauge the level of interest. Dublin's good show against Kilkenny in Parnell Park should get people’s attention. The declining interest in the Dublin footballers doesn't necessarily help the hurling attendance though. The ...

Re: Offaly Senior Hurlers 2024

Any idea why I can't get juvenile, adult and OAP tickets together for the hogan? As far as I can remember it’s always only being the cusack for the juvenile tickets. Assume that’s a GAA strategy as opposed to ticketmaster. Yep, sometimes it's only Canal End for family or discounted juvenile tickets...

Re: Offaly GAA Songs

Does anyone remember this being sung by Offaly fans on the terrace in 1998?
It was the official world cup anthem that year.
The chorus was sung as normal and we'd finish it with the cry "Offaly!".

Re: Offaly Under 20s hurling 2024

Mighty stuff! :D :D :D Congratulations to all who contributed to the win. It has been a long road to here. Tipp put up a real fight. Just like their last match against Cork they were living off scraps but still very dangerous. Offaly were just too strong this evening. Too much quality and too many s...

Re: Offaly Under 20s hurling 2024

It's also possible that Ticketmaster didn't sell all of their allocated tickets. During surges, when users are getting kicked out and payments are failing, what can happen is that these tickets don't return to the available queue immediately. Some credit card payments only clear or get declined afte...

Re: Offaly Under 20s hurling 2024

I bet lots of people grabbed more tickets than they need and spares will be floating about.
People will also drop out once the logistics of a Saturday evening in Kilkenny get too difficult.

Hang in there.

Re: Offaly Senior Hurlers 2024

Tickets for Joe Mac/Leinster final on sale now. Only a few sections open for sale at the moment, the usual Ticketmaster playbook. I'd give it until the weekend to see. Even with the Leinster final on, they should be any amount of options of seats/sections "Low available" 82,000 capacity 🤣...
