Padraig Egan will not be staying on with Ballycommon. He leaves with great respect and thanks from what he has achieved with the club. No replacement made yet I believe.

Re: Condolences Thread

Fair play to the entire Senior Football squad, management and backroon team who travelled together after training last night to the wake of Noel Bracken in respect of his brother Aidan. Tom Parlon also attended the funeral this morning, so great respect show by the entire Offaly GAA family. Much ...

Re: Club Football


Rhode are moving well and were impressive in spots . Ballycomon had a lot of possession but played into Rhodes hands . Rhode while dropping everybody back hit ballycommon on the counter attack and picked off their scores Ballycommon just seemed to run into the a wall of Rhode men and that’s ...

Re: Club Football

No real complaints. Tullamore owned the ball for large portions, but Ballycommon gave them enough to be worried about. Would have been nice to hang on for the draw. I don't think either team played any where near their best, Tullamore have a few more to come back, and Ballycommen experimented a bit ...

Re: Club Football

Shamrocks(1-11)v(1-10)Ferbane
Guess nobody saw that coming. By all accounts Shamrocks full value for the win despite late Ferbane comeback.
Will make rest of Big4 wake up. Already looking like a shake up in potential QF pairings?

Re: New club football format

Teams like Tullamore/Ferbane/Edenderry/Rode will still have to perform in group stage. Imagine one of them losing a couple of games, as people seem to think by not being interested, then they will have a QF against one of the other big 4, not what they want, so there will be some pressure on these ...

Re: Club football championship 2023

Look, Ballycommon marking was poor, didn't pick up the loose player quick enough, but my question was in general about physios on the field, and possible (inadvertent) interference with play. I believe there is no rule specifically, it' up to refs to manage it on the field of play. You can excuse ...

Just looking for opinions here. In the build-up to the first goal, the Clonbullogue physio is seen running over to a player on the ground, as the play develops O'Neill get up as the ball nears him, the physio runs back near the covering ...

Re: Club football championship 2023

Always thought this was going to be tight and the result proved so. Lots of if's and but's from both sides in analysing the match but I hope it was entertaining from a neutral's perspective. A lot was made of the poor Senior A final and a lot of that was down to the weather. Sunday was a glorious ...

Re: Election 2020 laois offaly


Carol Nolan is a sitting Independent TD.


But we only hear about her when election comes around. I had forgotten about her as I have never seen any refrence to her doing anything. Maybe she has, but very low profile. She would probably split a vote with any potentian SF candidate as that was her ...

Re: Club Football Championship 2022

In general have to agree with jimbob's assessment above. Rhode / Tullamore / Ferbane are the picks. Durrow could cause upset in a few games.

Senior B is between neighbours Clonbullogue & Bracknagh. Tubber will also be close but can Clonbullogue keep going after such a long season 2021/22 ...
