We were at the left side of the main stand as you'd look at it from the pitch.
There was a big crowd down from Offaly.
Ended up in Fabric nightclub and rounded it all off with a feed from Supermacs.

We ended up in the stand like sissies due to the heavy rain storm when we were heading in.
This prevented us from pumping up the shark.

Seems like the obvious place. A few of the lads who are bringing their burds on Valentine's trips might have to sit in the stand with the Kerry crowd. :P

A few years since I was there.
There's a stand on the railway station side, a terrace on the opposite side, a grassy bank behind one of the goals and a terrace behind the other.

Was anyone at this match?
Kilkenny are doing their best to keep us down. They weren't arsed against a very bad Dublin team last week.
We should have gone out and absolutely timbered them.
A few sendings off maybe, but we'd lay down the mark for championship.

Conor Evans was definitely through on goal when Dessie brought him down. :P

You have to love Babs. I remember after the Wexford match that year, he was giving quotes like "these players have given me everything...with the county board behind us", "the skill that's in this Offaly team is unreal". A couple of weeks later on "Sideline View" he was...

Good report from Lone Shark. It's hard to know how much to read into our early season form. It could be good or bad for championship. It can be a problem when a team picks itself too early in the year. I'm thinking back to last year. We peaked against Roscommon and Kildare in the league. Gerry Fahy ...

I remember PJ Cunningham suggesting Sid for full back in his Thursday Offaly talk column in the Indo. I'm not sure it will happen. Parlon at corner might be interesting. For the moment I'd see him as a 'have-a-go' wing forward capable of sticking over a couple of long range points. He mightn't have ...

Whisper it, but we look to have a good U21 football team this year. Though I'm certain in the last few years, every one of us has looked at an Offaly U21 panel and thought they were strong...only to see them whipped. I suppose underage football can be similar to club football. Your big names don't n...
