Laois / Re: The Future for Laois Football

I person was happy with John sugruu and eddie Brennan both who were recent managers but the county chairman though otherwise

True. Kinda surprised when I look back through your posts. You have been extremely bitter towards most people but posted numerous times about being willing to give Sugrue time.
You weren't overly complimentary of the first few games he was in charge..... then you stopped posting for 6 months so dunno how you rated his first championship campaign.

If only the world knew that all the oracle's of football reside in the Laois GAA forum, there would never be a mistake made.
For people to post in here that Sheehans appointment is doomed to failure is ridiculous.
He probably wouldn't have been my first choice but I don't claim to to foresee the future and know it won't end well.
Perhaps part of the problem in Laois is all the whingeing and moaning that goes on in the background. An appointment has been made, if the county got behind the team the chances of success may improve.
For those claiming this is an awful appointment - out of interest, who was the last manager you were happy with when they were announced?

Ballyroan
O'Dempseys
Graigue
Port

If Walsh is half fit for the Heath match Ballylinan will  win .
When was the last time The Heath were relegated to Intermediate ?
They won the intermediate in 1986, pretty sure they've been senior ever since.

Unfortunately Courtwood needing extra time lost my bet for me.

Nah Hutch said he gets less abuse for his current job than he would with the Laois gig.

Courtwood by 6, Emo by 5, Stradbally by 1 and Portlaoise by 4

Ballyfin by 3 , Ballylinan by 2.

A lot of tough games to call but thats how they're gonna pan out... you heard it here first folks !!!!😉😉😉

I'll just point out I'm 14/14 on my predictions posted here. I posted that I'd go against Ballylinan if Walsh wasn't playing (I originally thought he was fit)
HU DA MAN !!!!!! 😇😇😇

😂😁 not at all . Your comparing Clifford to Moore and the respective grade they are both competing in . ?
My point being and apologies if I'm been too vague is that Moore was in before with the county and was physically not up to it . He deserves another chance without doubt . He's a lovely footballer .
Read the post thoroughly before jumping to conclusions maybe .
I read your post 3 Times and still wasn't sure what point you were making.
Your comment about it only being a relegation game coupled with you saying perspective was needed, implied he's not up to county standard. That's why I felt the need to point out one of the most talked about footballers in the country plays at junior club level.

In the stand today listening to people going on about Sean Moore in with the County . Lovely footballer and has all the attributes and I'm pretty sure has been in the setup before . Huge difference between a relegation play in Laois and inter county level .
Sincerely hopes he's another chance to prove himself with the county but Jaysus a bit of perspective is needed .

Strange post. It seemed to start dismissive of the idea of him with the county, but finished with you saying you hope he gets a go with them.
As for the perspective, it's still a senior competition. He scored 2-8 today, I seem to remember David Clifford scoring 1-8 in a junior championship last week, is that an indicator that Clifford's not up to it?

Is there any charismatic character in the county who can drum up some enthusiasm in the county like Duignan has done in Offaly?

I don't have the time unfortunately 😂

I reckon Rosenallis might beat Emo who aren't going well at all this season. Won't be much between Killeshin and Strad, while St Joseph's might finally get one over Portlaoise.

Killeen to edge Ballylinan who have injuries to key players in Lacey and Walsh. Kingston will do all the damage again.
I thought Walsh was fit, if he's not my prediction goes the other way.

By jaysus I am brilliant, there's nothing I don't know about football!

Jaysus that's some going fair play . Who will win it out if you had to pick one ?

Hard to look past portarlington in fairness.
I keep expecting portlaoise buck up but there just doesn't seem to be any improvement from them. Maybe that umpire the other night has given them the lift they need to get going, but as someone posted a few days ago... maybe there's unrest in the camp.

Level of refereeing in this championship is scandelous.

To what are you referring?
