So what happens next so if a person doesn't hurl with club for a year? Are they granted a transfer or just tied down unless an intercounty transfer. There was about 4-5 Kyle transfer requests (not sure if underage players). Hopefully Kyle can stay afloat.

The Sheppard chaps play and always did underage with b/k and apparently are desperate to play with b/k with no intention of playing for Kyle at adult level according to their mam who is a lovely woman  and their transfers were refused last year too

Very strong stance refusing Conroys transfer as usually from what i understood is that transfers arent refused if you are living in the catchment area like *ahem* Darren Gilmartin living and working in Camross. That transfer was granted based on the "proof" he provided after Kyle objected to his transfer

Hard to believe Offaly were beaten by more in football. That's an awful hidin.

Long may offalys hidings continue, they have no respect for any aspect of laois so I will gladly do onto others

I'm not sure anyone hurler dreams of playing in the wind tunnel that is Salthill in March

If Slieve Bloom put their mind to it, they'd nearly win the Intermediate, and they'd get all the 'senior' hurling they wanted then.

if they had he who shall not be named they could certainly give it a go, ballacolla to take up where they left off for me though, rosenallis were way too strong for that grade

I think hurling mad it's people like you that spreads bad shit like this it is true that Conroy is looking to go to portlaoise but what you said about portlaoise giving him anything is not true I have it from very good contact that he wanted to play senior hurling and Castletown refused their requests so the only club to offer him that was ballinkill then slieve bloom refused to sign even though they led. Ballinkill on they say that they never wanted to let him play senior what a pity as he loved his club and could play both it is all political I'm told and talking to my contact it might mean the slow down of that club considering they never had a county player before

I simply stressed the fact that i couldnt place truth to it, not spreadig rumor as fact at all.

Did anyone hear anything from the transfers last night if they went through.

Heard nothing more than a rumor and i have to stress that it mightnt/probably isnt true but heard that Ben Conroy is looking to go to portlaoise and the club are giving him the relevelant documents like address etc...

Heard this a few weeks ago myself

Very bad form if there is any truth to it, hopefully not

I could have picked you up wrong, but were you not complaining about Kyle objecting to transfer/standing in the way of players moving? And praising the approach that Knock took in allowing players to leave?
I'd be interested to know what you see different about this potential move?

I'm not defending or attacking Kyle, Slieve Bloom, Knock or Portlaoise here- just wondering. Maybe I have picked you up wrong.

No im not attacking slieve bloom at all, I just heard the usual lark that its a so called dirty transfer with the old esb bill trick. Now as I stated i cannot say there is any truth to it. I dont believe it is the way to go about a transfer especially to a bigger club within your own county. Unless portlaoise did a gaels amalgamation that I didnt hear or read about which i doubt

Id also like to add from a personal point of view as a complete neutral, I cannot understand a player wanting to leave to play senior club hurling when they already play with the county and soon to be intermediate with their club but im not ben conroy or conor quinlan

Fair enough, I had interpreted your previous posts as saying that Kyle should allow their better players to leave in order to better themselves, like you or another posted described Knock doing for their players.

I may come across as a bit militant at times but im actually a nice guy 😜 but the real issue i had with kyle is they had the senior b amalgamation with trumera albiet not ideal logistically they didnt give it a chance in a nutshell thats my issue with kyle but otherwise would like to see them survive as it is a lovely little place and thriving community which is vital that a hurling club exists

The great old days of championship double headers in Rathdowney of a Sunday afternoon, brilliant atmosphere, would be great to have first rounds back in there
Loved hurling in them & watching them.
Crowds from all clubs in O Malleys mixing & having a pint after

Grand pint in o mallys still

mountrath is not a swamp as you put it don but a fantastic pitch fair play to the people of mountrath and perfect for senior games as where many of them were played over the years and i will go a little further by saying that it is the next best to o moore park

Thats what i thought but i cannot comment on what it is like to hold water, any time iv seen it or played especially on the new pitch i found it flawless

Is Mountrath not a swamp?

I dont know now? But when its right you could play bowling on it

When it's wet it's a swamp. Stradbally Park Ratheniska crettyard the best on football side. Port can be hit and miss at times. For convenience and for season ticket holder retention the CB will probably retain the status quo for another while.

Been about 15 years but i remember ballypickas having a grand pitch
