Was mentioned in a tv show (think could have been about Matt Connor) that Bord an Mona plants provided enough employment in Offaly in 80s that they were not impacted as badly by emigration as other counties were

Not sure how accurate this claim is, but they had a incredible group(s) of players in 80s/90s

Another faux Cork account a la @Perez2017 and and some dim bastard from Waterford. Be no best new poster awarded anyway.

That Offaly team of the 90s were a super outfit. They were always good to watch.

They played some super stuff to win in 98 as well and their supporters were always a decent bunch - one of them once insisted on buying me a cup of tea at a league game in Birr by way of apology for robbing us in 94.

“The difference in class between the Wexford players and the Offaly players in my opinion was huge. Offaly were able to carry themselves. They had a bit of class about them off the field, a higher calibre of individual. We had a great relationship with Offaly. I would have had fierce high regard for the Offaly players, but I couldn’t say the same about Wexford. There may have been fierce rivalry at the time between Limerick and Clare but at the back of it all there was a fierce respect. In my case I wouldn’t have that respect for Wexford. Certainly some of them were fine, but I wouldn’t have any grá for the majority of them. Our paths don’t cross that often but that suits me fine.”

We haven’t had any quality come onto the forum since the stunning break out year of @Copper_pipe

By God, what an addition he was.

Ah here.

He set the bar too high.

I’d say everybody in Wexford is devastated after hearing you don’t have any respect for them.

He said they were the team of the 90s sure nobody won 3 all irelands in the 90s did they?

No. But iirc they were the only team along with Kilkenny to reach 3 aifs.
