Chairman backs O’Rourke after Sligo defeat

DOWN boss Paddy O’Rourke has received the support of county chairman Jerry Quinn despite the team’s disappointing exit in the All-Ireland qualifiers.

O’Rourke was criticised after the 1-7 to 0-4 defeat to Sligo last month.

“I still support him and senior officers are supportive of Paddy O’Rourke,” Quinn told the Irish News.
