Ambrose Rogers- a Down icon. This is his story

This is the remarkable story of Ambrose Rogers. The quiet man of Down, but cut from GAA Royalty. Ambrose is 39. His father Ambrose snr, died when he was 39. That death left a 14 year-old child, the eldest of four, without a dad. A hole that cannot be filled. Life goes on and young Ambrose blossoms into a brilliant young man, a superb young footballer. He captains his county to an All-Ireland final in 2010- but he cannot take his place on the team. The cruciate. Ambrose shocked a nation when he lined out that day- but the call didn't come and Down lost by a point. It's just one of a number of insights into this Down legend.

The podcast explores coaching, this current Down team and Ambrose reveals he would love to manage his native county, some day, but not yet.

Recorded in front of a studio audience at the Saint Patrick centre in Downpatrick, this is Ambrose Rogers.
