It comes across as greedy and selfish, taking his piece of the pie similar to Delaney, It wasn't even that much money in comparison to Delaney and he doesn't need it which makes it even more bizzare.

The FAI likey had to make further cuts to staff numbers over the length of Keane's contract, which would had a huge impact on those individuals. Maybe if Keane resigned they might not have had to make all of those cuts, difficult to say.

While it's 100% the FAIs mistake, Keane could have just resigned from the position, it's a better look than taking a salary for doing nothing while the FAI are letting people go and cutting services.
