Well said Monument Road, this place has deteriorated quite a bit in the past few weeks Hogan Stand style... I was the one who brought most of the good lads from Laoistalk over here and it has been great mostly but If this keeps up the forum will die as the better posters will leave and the kids can have it all to themselves. .

Everyone loves a bit of banter and the odd smart dig but lets keep things civil and not start insulting lads who after all are only doing a days work like the rest of us. If they're not up to it they should be brought up to a better standard by the people who employed them in the first place.

Great win for the Minor footballers today, down 0-6 to 0-4 at half time and went 0-9 to 0-4 down after 15 min's of the second half. They really put the shoulder to the wheel then and levelled it with 3 min's to go.

Then Diarmuid Whelan, who had come back on after being injured fired over the winner and although Meath had a chance from a free to level the game, it was kicked wide and Laois had pulled of a brilliant victory..

One Change For Laois v Meath..

We hammered Sligo in our last challenge game. Not sure of the score. Hopefully things have improved since the Offaly game.

Things MUST have improved, it's been a long time since we hammered anyone...

Depressing  if thats true about the players going thru the motions.

No matter what the level of ability in the squad the least they deserve is a  professional setup.

Very disappointing to hear . . .

Don't believe all you hear.....

Any word on Mark Timmons unlaoised? I heard he was expected back for may/June but that was the last I heard in March.

Mark was in the Graiguecullen squad last Sunday against St. Joseph's but didn't get a run.
He was out kicking the ball around at half time and looked a bit stiff but in reasonable shape..
