Re: Tipsters Competition - a Separate Regional Table.
Plain of the Herbs is Sassenach for Lusmá. Guess that puts me in the hurling area category.Lone Shark wrote:

So, Thurles is confirmed as the quarter final venue. I wouldn’t have any fears about the venue as; contrary to popular belief, Offaly’s record over the last 15 years or so at the venue is actually quite good. The title of ‘Graveyard of Offaly hurling’ grew during the 70’s and 80’s when efforts at a ...

First off, that Waterford team will win nothing. A key to coming from behind is the ability to keep your discipline in the face of adversity, and too many of that Waterford team can’t do that. The inability of the full back line to deal with a high ball is no help either, and it’s hard to see any ot...

Would ye all ever forget about going up to Enniskillen on Sunday and come to Birr instead! Seriously, this is the biggest league match we've had in Birr since, probably 1997 when Limerick were the visitors in the final round. This was the first year of the league played in the one calender year, and...

With regard to John Dowling, I understand he, as a Tullamore clubman was vehemently opposed to selling O'Connor Park to the county board, hence the leasing arrangement now in place, which was the minimum required to secure 'county ground' status. Surely it would be inappropriate to name the stand af...

Interesting to hear Liam Griffin on ‘The Last Word’ claim, for the second time in 8 days, that Wexford were unlucky to lose to Offaly in the league due to the deflected goal, etc. Now, if the goal had come in the last minutes, I might say “fair enough”, but the goal came with 20 minutes to go, and r...

I didn't travel. Heard the middle third of the game on Clare FM, then 20 mins or so on Radio Gerry. Saw the highlights on TG4 last night. Seemed that Offaly scored or came close any time they attacked. Ditto for Clare. The telly highlighted one thing, Clare must have scored 6 points from forwaeds ca...

Clare v Offaly
Offaly welcome back captain Thursday, March 23, 2006 Brendan Murphy, who missed the win over Wexford last time out, returns to the Offaly team for Sunday’s NHL meeting with Clare in Ennis. The Offaly captain comes into the attack in place of Stephen Brown in what is the only change from the Wexford ...

Lusmagh v Belmont
Lusmagh v Belmont stands out as a second/third place play-off. A pity its in the first round, the loser will definitely be out of the running.

That’s some great observations there POTH – insightful and very readable at the same time. The Offaly Indo boys will still be stuck for a few matches for the summer if you want me to put a word in …… (other than that you’ll end up with a Meath woman covering some hurling matches – surely that would...

Funny how its never Liam dunne's fault when he gets sent off. Of course, they never mentiioned Dunne's hack down on John when he was bearing down on goal in 1999. When John Troy always hurled well when he was fully fit and marking Lian Dunne:- 1994- John got RTE man of the match. 1995- Dunne was win...

Sindo feature on Damien Hayes
I see Damien Lawlor writing in the Sindo now. Didn’t he previously write for the Scar or one of those other tabloids? Anyway, he had a feature on Damien Hayes and Portumna’s forthcoming club final, which would be OK were it not for some glaring errors. Firstly, Lawlor remarked on the green and gold ...

Part of the unpredictable nature arises because at least one round will be played out on the dirtiest weekend of the winter amidst driving rain and an icy wind. Saturday was one of those days, when a win will have to be ground out on a sticky pitch where conditions most certainly do not favour forwa...
