Portadown FC has confirmed the departure of team boss Niall Currie.

In a statement, the side thanked Currie for his efforts over the last 14 months and wished him well for the future.

A club spokesperson added: “An announcement regarding the manager’s position at Portadown FC will be made in due course.”

Currie took over the reins of his hometown club after leaving Ards FC in December 2016.

He had hoped to help rebuild the club after the setback of relegation to the Championship.
