Tipp And Co Will Remain Out Of Reach With Current League Format - Johnny Kelly

Tuesday, 20 June 2023 06:58

Offaly will be facing elite counties in Division One of next year's National Hurling League.

The Yo-yo affect will not help anyone when developing hurling according to Offaly Senior Hurling manager Johnny Kelly

His side were at the wrong end of a record breaking defeat by Tipperary on Saturday in the All Ireland preliminary quarter final. 

The final score was 7-38 to 3-18.

The Faithful side's season came to an end at the weekend, just weeks after their extra time defeat to Carlow in the Joe McDonagh Cup Final. 

The Premier County advance to the All Ireland quarter finals this weekend where they will face Galway, while Clare and Dublin also face off for a spot in the semi finals. 

Kelly says that bridging the gap every two years is not possible:
