Kelly stepped away from the Offaly position in August and at the time was quoted as saying he did not have the time to commit to the job ahead of next year:

Regan went one step further in questioning the credibility of Eamon Kelly, who led Offaly to a 3-22 to 2-14 victory over Laois in the 2016 Leinster Championship.
