Steven Poacher is the new Leitrim boss and, inset, Anthony McGrath
Anthony McGrath will be part of Steven Poacher’s backroom team following the announcement that the Down native is to take over as senior football team boss with Leitrim.
Poacher will take the place of Mickey Graham who departed as Leitrim manager less than two months into the job and was then announced as part of Pádraic Joyce's Galway background team for next season.
Ballyshannon native McGrath will join the team as performance coach and selector. The Aodh Ruadh clubman has coached Donegal at minor, Under 21 and senior level in the past under Declan Bonner.
