Re: Offaly Senior Football 2026


Absolutely shocking. The only good thing from that is hopefully thats the end of declan kelly. A bitter dictator who got way too much power after the u20 win doesnt have a clue holds grudges and falls out with lads for the sake of it everywhere he’s been they all hate him so everyone cant be wrong ...

Re: Offaly management 2027






You can stop now.
The two men have moved on, and so should you.



So you jusy focus on the current management and completely ignore the rest of my post and what has clearly been an issue for every manager offaly have had in the past 20 years?


The current management had run out of road ...

Re: Offaly management 2027



I think the reality in offaly is that unrealistic expectations will make it impossible for any manager.. weve just got rid of the only manager who had any kind of success over the last 20 years with offaly and not only that but he has been destroyed and completely disrespected by some people on ...

Re: Offaly Hurling 2026

Just flat track bullies? There wasnt even a physical contest with offaly, they were first to everything and on a different planet to offaly, skill, pace, power, athleticism, intelligence etc. Offaly will have all winter but the reality is offaly are unlikely to beat cork in championship in our life ...

Re: Offaly management 2027



How do we know the clubs are against it? Theres what 20 regular contibutors on here and they seem to think that they represent the views of the 50 odd thousand others that would have an opinion.. players and camp appear to be happy given our run in the tailteann cup. If every manager was to be ...

Re: Offaly management 2027



Management to be reappointed for two more years even though players who are guaranteed starters have asked for a change and also clubs are unhappy. It is unfair but the county board have decided they want DK and MH to remain, so we need to move on now. Hopefully we gain promotion in 2027 and a ...

Re: Offaly management 2027




Offaly were promoted out of division 3 in 2021 by winning a mini group during covid lockdown, wasn't a proper league.
Offaly got to the semi finals in 2021 and were hammered by the afore mentioned westmeath.
Better underage supply line? Offaly u20s hammered by westmeath twice last time they ...

Re: Offaly management 2027


Rightly or wrongly, rumours doing rounds that Harte and Kelly are back in for another 3 years. No idea re the depth of the truth to this. Anyone have any knowledge or any thoughts?

Resurrecting this thread to ask can anyone point to how we fell off a cliff - in terms of underage development, investment and Senior Hurling team development - so far that we didnt get out of the Christy Ring?

Re: Offaly Senior Football 2026

All the talk of discontent in the camp... this year clearly demonstrates that the opposite is true and we have the panel of players who are there, who want to be there and who are working together for their team mates and their management.. bear in mind this is our championship and all games to this ...
