A lot of negativity surrounding this county lately but I feel the footballers are on the up. They had a golden goal chance against Meath which they somehow missed and would have put them 5 points up with 10 to play. I was impressed with what was a very organised outfit.

John Maughan's sides will never lack fitness for organization. Gleebo (Mayo) - Posts: 2208 - 23/06/2019 17:12:23 2199076 Link 0 |
I posted during the league campaign that we were gearing and training towards the championship which explained our legginess and poor results. tulachmhór (Offaly) - Posts: 145 - 23/06/2019 18:17:28 2199177 Link 1 |

Nice to get a couple of wins for a change. The u20's had a good win on Saturday, so a good weekend all round. thelongridge (Offaly) - Posts: 1741 - 23/06/2019 18:44:19 2199209 Link 0 |
Looking forward to the draw tomorrow. Best result is you avoiding Armagh, Kildare, Tyrone and Mayo odds stacked against avoiding them all but you never know.

Mayo is the only one i absolutely want to avoid at this stage. We'd have home advantage but a bridge too far I feel at our stage of development. Hard luck to meath today, never got going by the sounds of things, I would love another crack at ye in rd 4. tulachmhór (Offaly) - Posts: 145 - 23/06/2019 20:30:56 2199344 Link 0 |
No 'easy draws' from now on.

Here's my preference (from easiest draw to most difficult draw). Clare Westmeath Laois Tyrone Kildare Armagh Mayo We never have a massive amount of luck in these draws so I'll guess we get Mayo. tulachmhór (Offaly) - Posts: 145 - 23/06/2019 21:52:20 2199453 Link 0 |
If I was ye id prefer any team except Tyrone and Armagh, teams who will pack the defence. Mayo will let ye play and any team that runs at them will get joy. tommy132 (Mayo) - Posts: 601 - 23/06/2019 23:12:11 2199525 Link 0 |
Ye got London and Sligo so far in the draws, I would say that was a decent bit of luck?

We all need a bit of luck on occasions.

Its actually embarrassing that we are celebrating wins against London and Sligo (both currently average D4 standard teams). Also both of these games were played at home in Tullamore. And looking at how easily Dublin mopped the floor with Meath yesterday, running them close cannot hardly be too big of a moral victory. faithful4ever (Offaly) - Posts: 209 - 24/06/2019 09:50:53 2199656 Link 0 |
I hope Galway get them.

A trip to Portlaoise is definitely winnable for Offaly. Both sides will be feeling confident after their victories at the weekend. Should be an entertaining tussle! TrueBlue35 (Dublin) - Posts: 206 - 24/06/2019 10:01:06 2199670 Link 0 |
They've beaten London and Sligo so far. Keep the corks in the champagne dakid (Australia) - Posts: 284 - 24/06/2019 11:11:59 2199747 Link 1 |
Good draw for Laois, Offaly, Westmeath and Clare. Clare and Offaly both teams that impressed me this year. The fitness let both of you down but a lot of time has passed so that side of things will have improved. Jack_Goff (Meath) - Posts: 2920 - 24/06/2019 13:00:04 2199858 Link 5 |
