Re: Offaly Hurling 2026

To be honest, I plan at being my obnoxious best to these Cork “supporters” on Sunday.

Re: Offaly Senior Football 2026

Am I right in saying it’s either Fermanagh or Wicklow as we can’t get Down again as to avoid repeat pairings where possible?

Re: Offaly U20 Hurling Championship

SBK won the corresponding minor championship to the best of my knowledge.

K/K didn’t even make the final.

Hasn’t been a winner other than K/K since 2019 who are after 7 in a row.

Considering they’ve also won 6 of the last 7 minors if they do win this year’s U20 they could feasibly go on and ...

Re: Offaly Hurling 2026

I know challenge matches are loose at the best of times but that’s a colossal score to concede.

Re: Offaly Hurling 2026

Classy stuff from the Clare lads. Some day they'll come to terms with 1998.

Being opened up for 3 goals in the first 25 minutes would be a concern particularly with the pace the Cork forwards have at their disposal.

A Cork championship team is a big step from anything we've faced in a long long ...

Re: Offaly Hurling 2026


Clyda Rovers had up on Twitter that they received 48 tickets. I’d imagine each cork club gets the same?

I wonder is this the same for Offaly or would each Offaly club get more given there are significantly less clubs?

In other news, Offaly hurled Clare last night in Birr ‘behind closed doors ...

Re: Offaly Hurling 2026

Ticket sales seem to have been brisk enough from the Offaly allocation.

But we will have returns from Ardan O Coinnean Block 210, Ardan O Riain Block 116 and the Killinan End Terrace. The Town End Terrace is kept for Cork.

A sell out now appears likely which I'm actually amazed by. But hey what ...

Re: Offaly Hurling 2026

What do expect the attendance to be at this game I wonder.

Seemingly Cork have sold out their last 14 championship fixtures. However the anticipation would be they will win this handy so some fans may keep their money for trips they expect to be making to Dublin.

I still would expect them to ...

Re: Offaly Hurling 2026


I presume we are looking at a Q-Final double header in Thurles?

Offaly vs Cork/Limerick
Clare vs Galway/Dublin.

These Q-Finals are notoriously poorly attended due in no large part to the fact they are usually played on a Saturday. In fact I think 2 years ago the first one threw in at some ...

Re: Offaly Hurling 2026


One player on the bench roasted Kiely last year in county semi final. That player cant get a minute currently were going that well.
So not sure where that would leave kiely on the pecking order.


Correct & right.

After that semi final Cillian Kiely was moved to wing back for the county final ...

Re: Offaly Hurling 2026



Obviously not a fan I see, Killian was our mainstay in lower etchelons and carried us many a day, Cathal was on panel and did play and score for Offaly too.. they aren't a phobia or something that should be forgotten about, Kiely and Conneely carried us out of the wilderness we were in..

Re: Offaly Hurling 2026

With a full deck to choose from you would have last night’s 16 plus Donal Shirley, Brecon Kavanagh and Charlie Mitchell. That’s a serious first 19.
