Anyone sure of the ticket prices today. I'm in Dublin so very much considering hanging around here and spinning across to Tullamore.

20€ i belive 10 for the stands

Mr Tibbs

Best of luck to Waterford this evening. Its going to be a hard one for this youthfull team against an Offaly side that put four goals a past Kilkenny. That's something I could never see Waterford doing. All this talk of Offaly being in division IB can be very misleading as Tipp found out against Limerick. The changing of the goal keeper and introducing a corner forward is telling me we do not have a settled fifteen. I hope it works out today because I could not see Michael Ryan lasting any longer if we are beaten.
We are seen as a team in transition and a scalp easy to take after our poor showing against Clare in most other counties. The only way to change that perception of course is to beat Offaly which is not going to be an easy task. Looking at our performance against Clare and Offaly's performance against Kilkenny you would have to say Offaly would have the bigger advantage here especially as the game is in Tullamore. Roll on 7 o'clock may the best team win and hopefully it will be a good game we need a good performance after our last game.

Congrats to the Waterford ladies winning the All Ireland U14B competition against Westmeath 4-10 to 0-11. Last 20 minutes they seemed to blitz Westmeath with a run of points to win it

O Keeffe fumbled it, seemed to hang up in the wind, Liam Lawlor picked it up, then tried to give a handpass across the large square which was intercepted. Poor goal to give away - Ryan wouldn't be happy with that!

The London Westmearh game was a preliminary qualifier, so London are out and Westmeath are through. Winners are going to Mullingar.

London had been previously beaten by Carlow, Westmeath knocked out of Leinster by Antrim.

Mahony on for Barron. I have yet to hear Brian O'Sullivan's name be mentioned.

Hmmmmmm, not sure why I thanked your post. Wasn't I sort of right?

4 points up but playing into a strong wind in the second half. All to do yet

Looks like Maurice has really stepped up to the plate tonight great to see as we need leaders in the forwards

PTH2009

Up by the famous 4 points. Nerve racking up here

Mountainlad

They just need to play better. Against The wind could be an advantage with the pace up front. And there's a chance that Offaly might hit more wides. They will be able to hit their big men from further away however.

Bottom line, we're 4 up, that's good enough if we play well in this half. We'll need a goal or two I think, and so we can't waste two chances and gift them one like the first half. That's a nine point swing.

Adamant on WLR Seamus should have had a penalty but ref gave a free out, seems he's doing fcuk all for us. Then Offaly go up other end and get a point. It's gonna be tight.

Same complaint on RTE, same again now with maurice.

efb

Miss of the year!

Cake Man

Jesus it's frustrating, anything we seem to try isn't coming off. Jake just wide and everything Offaly touching going over.

Psychedelic

Offaly fouling the fcuk out of us.

seananigans

Offaly fouled themselves out of the game the last day,heres hoping for the same

PTH2009

Offaly staring to get on top

seananigans

sounds like we remembered who we are, Babyshan having some blinder , looks like they're settling now, need to pull away while we can

Cake Man

Come on lads drive on to fcuk

FFS, Brick fouled after he cleared the ball and the ref gives Offaly a free? This fella is a fcuking joke, if we lose this there will be uproar.

garv123

is Brick at much today? first time hearing his name all game on the radio.

Psychedelic

Ref is killing us.

Mountainlad

I can't handle not being there, it's awful! Not even being able to see it. Aaaaaah
