For those asking, my assessment that Shamrocks look better this year is not somethat that I would want to have to go into a TV debate to justify, it's just purely that I think that they look pretty good, when you consider the players that are missing, and I think that draw in Rhode is not to be sniffed at. Moreover, they did the right thing electing to go into the strong group, and I think they'll be better for it.

No, I'm not getting hung up on the league in the slightest, but I think that they're generally moving well, showing a bit more dog in them, and I'd consider them realistic championship contenders in a way that I probably didn't for the last couple of seasons.

But it's only seat of the pants stuff, because so much of Offaly football is shadow boxing, it's only the knockout stuff that matters, so in that sense there's nothing to go on, really.

Bit of a turnaround in a few days, from anyone who couldn't see the improvement in Shamrocks this year doesn't understand football to having nothing to go on really and it's only shadow boxing so far.
Think your last post is more accurate, in that how Shamrocks get on from here, will be the real indication if they have improved at all.
Not a fan of the player/ manager set up myself but clearly Shamrocks knew what they were doing when appointing Nigel and felt it could work.
