"Closet Laoismen", now now angel, that's a dirty dig. That would be like referring to Tubber folk as closet Wesmeath men or Bracknagh boys as closet Kildare men. Best hide behind the computer with that kind of talk :twisted: With regard to Junior I believe there are a few long serving Grac...

Gracefield v Tullamore

Should be a good game and hopefully Karl Slattery back for Gracefield. Niall McNamee scored 11 points for Rhode on Saturday night, 5/6 from play. I wonder if Karl was playing and both cancelled each other out would the result have been the same. With about 3 minutes to go there was 2 points in it an...

Gracefield v Erin Rovers

I have to say well done to Gracefield Saturday night night in a game that was made for Erin Rovers. Geashill is a tight pitch,it was heavy and cut up and as the game went on it got worse. We started the game without Karl Slattery and Adrian Dunne which meant a few changes were made to compensate. Th...

Forget about the Tommy Murphy Cup, we can't motivate ourselves for the qualifiers so this is a none runner. Micko will still have Wicklow flying and he will use this as a stepping stone for next year. He'll want to win it so you can be sure he'll have the players in the same frame of mind.

With regard to the training under Tommy Lyons,he started in September 96 and continued flat out training 4 times a week and at the end of November when those who were committed,good enough and 3 stone lighter did he break the news that they were only fit enough to train and ultimately they kicked th...

I don't think Pat Roe will walk and I also don't think the County Board should get rid of him. You can't come into a county and turn it upside down in 12 months and then say good luck I'm outta here. I'm hoping he has learned a lot from his first year and will know himself where he fell down so he c...

So who should be held accountable?

So folks,is this it. Do we accept our fate and carry on regardless. Someone or something has to be held accountable. I have been a proud Offaly supporter since I was at my first game in Croker with my aul lad in the All-Ireland semi final against Down in 1981 at the afraid of heights age of 9. Since...

If you think yesterdays performance was poor,wait until you see the game against Wicklow. With the exception of Karl Slatterty I seen no passion,heart or cutting edge against a mediocre Dublin team who were only good in patches because we were not close enough to them. I'm very dissappointed. Last y...

Get your tickets folks. There was a great roar when Offaly came onto the field in the Final last year and no doubt gave the lads a lift. More of the same would be great.
