Offaly football is back in the big time after their U20 footballers secured the All-Ireland title at Croke Park this afternoon. The Faithful County's triumph over Roscommon got Twitter buzzing...

Gorgeous brand of football by these @Offaly_GAA Under 20s. Granted they’re young and like gazelles, but it’s all forward movement, always running 🔥 @SportTG4 🏐

So many, many days in Croke Park over the last 20 years as a neutral - but there’s no buzz like it being your day. Offaly’s day! 🥲 #UibhFhailiAbú 💚🤍💛 pic.twitter.com/HEMUe3C0W2

Have to hand it to Shane Lowry, he is the most high profile genuine GAA fan out there. I remember a few years ago he was in the terrace in Nowlan Park, Offaly being hammered. Certainly no prawn sandwich man and willing to help tout financially too. Offaly deserve days like this https://t.co/OMpPbQXKIK

Amongst all of the madness going on at the mo, the @officialgaa missed a trick.

Putting the Ladies Semi Final after a final was a bit daft. Offaly / Rossie fans streaming out at FT. Leaving a small crowd for the Cork v Meath Semi. In hindsight it should have been swapped. 🤷♂️
Congratulations to Offaly and Roscommon for giving us such a wonderful game of football. So much more enjoyable than last night’s fouls, gamesmanship and dirty play. Well done Offaly. Well deserved victory.

Unreal performance for @Offaly_GAA u-20. All Ireland champions 🏆 🟢⚪️🟡. The future of the senior team is bright. Not good for the heart the end of that game. Great game of football. Great for the county. #UibhFhailiAbu #OffvsRoss #GAA #thefaithful #ilovemycounty pic.twitter.com/l1GXRxlF2o

An extraordinary under 20 championship with worthy winners, it does all GAA people’s soul good to see Offaly winning, hard luck to Roscommon. And never forget Brendan Og O’Dufaigh.
