Eamonn Kelly’s Offaly heroes silence their critics

Offaly 3-22 Laois 2-14: It seems like another world now, and certainly another time but it was still the Leinster Championship and only five weeks ago.

Offaly were hammered by Westmeath and Eamonn Kelly was getting nuisance phone calls from self-styled hardy boys.

Now, after beating local rivals Laois in Portlaoise in convincing fashion, Kelly is no longer The Devil Incarnate. So could he expect a few calls later on?
