Men, I am nothing, as I honestly told everybody on the Laois Forum, that I'm an Alcoholic but sober.I have fusk all here I'm Nottingham England but a one bedroom flat, and I actually found a good decent English girl. But I yearn for home. Even if ireland is not what it was,But Irish men and women ( including Laois people  )have a wonderful heritage. I am A Christian man, and I honestly believe thT Christ gifted the Irish people their own Form of Sport in Hurling and football. It's ours to fo what we want with it.

I don't believe that Laois in general were poor. The Laois women are in TWO ALL IRELAND FINALS.I don't differentiate because some of you are possibly either going out with a couple of em, or you personally know them. The will be wearing the blue and white with pride. Yes there are obvious problems with our senior teams, especially the Footballers, who seem to have list total confidence, losing to Westmeath savagely. No matter how many excuses are made, the Laois hurlers were seriously poorer than 24 against Offaly.  We all have a right to free speech, thus at times we jump at one another. My simple honest opinion was that the LAOIS SENIOR COACHING TEAM, Just wasn't at the races. They had a plan A, but nothing else. By rights. Laois should never have beaten Carlow. I paid 760 Pounds to get to Doctor Cullen. That should tell some of you, that I love Laois and I. Miss 04,05, and 06. In 2005 The Laois senior footballers, who gave us memorable days, threw away the 05 final against Westmeath as ONE FOOTBALLER BEAT US. ANYWAY I WANT TO THANK THE 23 LADS THAT VOTED, AS I promised. I sent the poll and all of your votes, and I wrote a letter to the incoming chairman, giving many of your opinions, thus I warned him that the lack of success has left empty seats, I reminded him that a great hurling coach in 2019/20, filled o'moore Park against Dublin and brought in roughly 280.000 that day, and although 2020 was not as good, he coached the boys, many still in the team to run a County line Clare to one point, and if Tony Kelly wasn't there,  Laois would have got into another ALL Ireland quarter final. I will leave it at that as Verbal is probably having a cardiac arrest, reading what I say. I will finish by thanking you, fellow lovers of the County because its a great forum.

Is this the overall head of S&C at county level or one of the senior team coaches?

Trying to decipher what you're saying would give anyone a heart attack.
