Roscommon seek new manager as John Evans steps down from post

John Evans last night stepped down as Roscommon football manager, hours before clubs were due to vote on his future at a county board meeting.

Despite top-brass outlining their preference this week for the Killorglin native to continue for a fourth year, Evans informed the board executive he would not seek reappointment.

Evans guided the county to back-to-back league titles, achieving promotion to the top tier in the process, while also annexing the FBD Connacht league crown in January.
