its true alright... the 2 coughlan brothers from st sylvesters!! both about 6'5 and pretty decent footballers by all accounts. should welcome them with open arms.

yeah the two Coughlan brothers moving from Syls. John a very good footballer great minor with Dublin a few injuries the last few years but should be a good addition to the panel. Not sure about the younger lad Niall. Dont think he's intercounty standard but a big lad all the same. Didnt hear anyone from Plunketts was declaring but ya never know Jim.

Are they just going to play with Offaly or are they moving clubs? If they are moving clubs, where are they moving to?

the dcu match means nothing. i dont believe we will beat meath but im confident we will be within 6 points. we could also go on a good qualifier run if the draw is kind.

Who was the supposed transfer from Plunketts Jim?

The two Coughlans will be an addition to the midfield area anyway. Was Alan McNamee involved against DCU?

Al isn't going in at all mate. from what i hear its as bad as it ever was in there... i hope relegation isn't on the cards

Jaysus very surprised to hear that. Football has been his life for as long as I can remember. What the deal not asked in or not going in of his own accord?

The Anchorman (Offaly) - Posts: 122 - 28/01/2010 16:43:42    545083

his own accord. he's kinda injured anyway. it'l be a killer for all the super bashers out there , they have no one to give out about now!

Yeah I'm sure they'll take it out on Ciaran Mc, or some other lad who gives 100% all of the time. Niall will probably start to get the abuse this year.
