The resignation comes at a critical period for Popa. Rollers recently saw their league campaign end in seventh position, the lowest in the past decade.

The team's chances at silverware were dimmed by rivals Gaborone United (GU) in the Orange FA Cup quarterfinals. The result condemned the club to a seventh consecutive season without major silverware.
