Offaly v Waterford, SH qualifier, 22nd June 2013
Fixture is confirmed. Throwing in at 7pm on Saturday week.
7pm will give a few more a chance to attend. Much preferable to a 2pm start.

Id like to see a pipe band at the next game , I thought it was badly missed the last day and would add to the atomsphere in the ground and great to hear Amhran Na bhFiann been played by a band. I could be wrong but is there not a band in Mountbolus that used to provide music before the big games. Maybe times have moved on and im living in the past !!

That was a cracking tenor sing the anthem on Sunday. From Ferbane as well. Normally a place with about as much culture as a pot of yogurt!

Pipe Band for Amhrainn na bhFiann, Simon Casey & Brendan Keeley to belt out a few tunes, open a bar after the game under the stand (with extension!!), and a win over the Blah's what could be better.
On that note, wonder will Carolls Ham be doing a Ham Blah with the Waterford based bread roll??? Could be a nice little money spinner for them!

James McGrath is refereeing, according to gaa.ie.

The tenor in question was Joe Maher, a fine young footballer too, played with Offaly seniors in the League and is still a Leaving Cert student!kingscounty wrote:Great tenor have to agree, Ferbanes got talent!Bord na Mona man wrote:Some of the Mount Bolus band have moved on as well truth be told.kingscounty wrote:Id like to see a pipe band at the next game , I thought it was badly missed the last day and would add to the atomsphere in the ground and great to hear Amhran Na bhFiann been played by a band.

There is encouraging news that del morkan was back training last night for the first time since being injured. A crucial player if they are to continue in the championship

Yes Waterford is a tough draw but vital its a home venue which gives us a great chance.If we can pull off a win it will be two good competitive games and dont think we should fear anyone after that.
Re: Offaly v Waterford, SH qualifier, 22nd June 2013
Just had word from one of the senior panelists that Joe Bergin went over on his knee in training and th=at Ger Healion has a infection on his knee
Hopefuly nothing too serious.

Just hear that Parlon is almost sure to be out for Saturday.
Word from Waterford is O Halloran and Shane Walsh is definitely out. Nagle is no better than 50/50 to play on Saturday
All humours. what the true is, god knows.
