Just spotted that was from October.
@myboyblue Jesus Christ thatâs a risky looking team. I suppose it needed doing in some ways but it looks a bit drastic.
I doubt he has many other options given the injuries and absentees. Iâd prefer a bit more experience in the backline, but where would you find it? We need to blood backs, and quickly. May as well do it in Division 4. Promotion would be nice, but not vital.
Good to see you back.
Isnât Graiguecullen in Carlow?
Yes, and they can have them back any time they like.
Whatâs that about?
Ah you donât know they story? @GeoffreyBoycott would no doubt tell it better than I, but this is the abridged version.
Graigue played in Carlow up until 1926, when they were suspended for a huge row in a County Final against Milford. They were invited to join the Laois Championship and there they remain.
They hold thirteen Carlow Senior Football Championship titles (the last of which was in 1925), and are part of the reason Carlow jerseys are the colour they are. They reached a county final one year, and the Carlow County Board chose to amalgamate the jerseys of both finalists to create the rasta job they currently sport.

Informative. So would Graigue lads support Laois then?
Bizarre really.
Good trivia though, have any other clubs won senior county championships outside of their own counties I wonder?

Oh theyâd be staunch Laoismen who donât appreciate being told to âfuck off back to Carlowâ, which is always a safe bet for winding them up on the field.
Incidentally, they were cunts when youâd be playing them underage back in the day. They could turn up with cunts from Palatine, Eire Ăg, Ballinabranna, Hanrahans, etc.
Thatâs like two bald men fighting over who owns a bucket of excrement.
Not sure why anyone would do that, but youâd be more versed in handling buckets of other peoples excrement, so I bow to your greater knowledge.
Oh, I think you are. Youâre from Laois, after all.
Flesh that out, pal.
Up there with, I know I am, but what are you.
No, mate, I know youâre from Laois.
Is your Parkinsonâs disease kicking in again?
You know what I let you know. Which isnât what you think you know, just what you presume to know.
Oh, I see it is kicking in.
Good luck with it.
@myboyblue Didnât know about the injuries. Are Strong, Begley, Lillis, Buggie, Timmons all backs injured? Iâd heard Booth was out. Afraid I havenât been following as closely as I should.
