After a sad but proud day in Navan, the struggles of shopping in Lidl and football no longer coming home, Laois people had a lot to say this week.
It’s our Top Tweets of the Week.

To be so close to rock bottom at the start of the year to getting to a Leinster final and a game away from super 8’s, what a year for laois ?⚪️

So close yet so far. Win or lose it’s been an incredible season from Laois. To come from close to rock bottom to a Leinster final and game away from the super 8’s is massive. Hats off to John Surgrue and all players. Onwards and upwards #LaoisLaoisLaois ?⚪️

Tributes poured out to Laois after a great year of football, may there be many more.
Laois goal keeper Graham Brody on top of 6 excellent saves in the game just gave a pair of gloves to a little Monaghan supporter. Class act. #GAA.

Graham Brody is no stranger to Twitter praise, this time for being sound after the match.
I heard people signing “it’s coming home” in town and I actually nearly squared up

Laois people were as passionate as ever at the prospect of football coming home.
When people screenshot a Snapchat that I sent, but don’t respond at all. Using me for laughs but not for my company. #KeepYourHeadHighButYourMiddlsFingerHigher

Rise above the haters.
You’d come across the most bizarre requirements when you’re searching for accommodation in Dublin pic.twitter.com/M28StxMMB0

Laois students couldn’t be up to the renting requirements these days.
Ever since starting in the local pub, I get an awful lot more waves from old men in tractors on the road, is this what playing gaa is like

Rural Ireland, you’re nobody until you can pull a pint.
Here, there is absolutely NO need for the pace at which Lidl staff scan groceries..

Seriously Lidl, will you give us a minute.
Why do I counsel random strangers EVERYTIME I go out

We’ve all had a Deep Meaningful Conversation in the bathroom on a night out.
