A Kerryman in charge of Offaly footballers, and now Laois do the same. Things could be stirring in the Midlands! Hope Laois do well with the new man.

I was about to say the last time we had a Kerryman in charge things worked out well!! And then i remembered Liam Kearns spell here! In fairness to Liam Laosi was the only county he hasn't done really well in. Got us to the 2007 Leinster final. Laois76 (Laois) - Posts: 1270 - 20/09/2017 12:07:17 2048505 Link 1 |
Ye'r welcome, is there any other county that has given so much back to the GAA? We gave mayo the O'Shea's , Laois billy sheehan, Wexford Ben Brosnan, Roscommon Declan O'keeffe and young stack their wing back, the dubs the brogans Brian Fenton cian O'sullivan James McCarthy , limerick John Galvin. Plus we sent paidi o'sé and micko to Westmeath and Kildare to win them Leinster titles. and still we're the most disliked county in the country it don't figure.

In fairness it is not as if the people you mentioned are Kerry natives themselves. They just have Kerry in their blood line. Sure Kevin McMenamin's Mum is from Galway. Ciaran Kilkenny's grandfather is the late great Sean Purcell. Conal Keaney has one if not both his parents from Galway and Kevin Moran the Waterford hurler has a Galway father.

Of course your not! That's the Dubs silly. We all love Kerry. By the way any chance we could get David Clifford on loan? We still have a few safe houses above in the Galtees, would be happy to hide him from the Aussies for a couple of years for ye! roundball (Tipperary) - Posts: 2514 - 21/09/2017 23:43:24 2049212 Link 0 |
Wish him the best , hope county board give him the time to build and put his stamp on team , Leinster and selfishly Dublin need a strong Laois Damothedub (Dublin) - Posts: 5193 - 22/09/2017 00:02:13 2049215 Link 0 |

Yeah Laois public need to relax ...A lot of them were spoilt in the late 90s and early 2000s with the players they had coming through at all grades now it has dried up a little they tend to get impatient . Still talent there but a few lads the wrong side of 30 but surely a good manager with a committed squad could get something out of players like Brody Attride Quigley Begley O'Loughlin Kingston and Cahillanne BigJohn.6_8 (Galway) - Posts: 704 - 22/09/2017 11:55:03 2049292 Link 0 |
Really hope this new manager can turn things around. The senior players especially need to give him 100% support. In recent years the fans too have desserted the team big time even for home games. Miss the intense rivalry we had with both Laois and Offaly neighbours, would love to be bantering with both sets of supporters again.
