Steven Poacher departs Roscommon coaching role after one season

The Down man said he is looking forward to coaching opportunities closer to home.

STEVEN POACHER HAS stepped away from his role as coach with Roscommon senior footballers after one season.

Poacher joined Anthony Cunningham’s set-up for the 2021 campaign as the Rossies were relegated from Division 1 before their loss to Galway in the Connacht SFC semi-final. 

The Down native praised “true gentleman” Cunningham and admitted it was a “very difficult year.”

A teacher at St Joseph’s school in Newry, Poacher was previously involved with Down minors as a coach, while prior to that he played a key role with Carlow seniors under Turlough O’Brien.
