Stephen Bradley has slammed Cork City's "weak" decision not to give Shamrock Rovers a guard of honour at Turner’s Cross on Monday night.The tradition to honour the newly crowned champions by applauding them onto the pitch was observed by Derry City last year but interim Cork manager Richie Holland decided against it to avoid a backlash from fans.He instead presented Bradley with two bottles of champagne before the scoreless draw."It’s really poor from Cork.

It’s just respect, isn’t it?" said Rovers boss Bradley."I’d definitely do it for a team. I don’t understand it. That’s their decision.

It is what it is but I think it’s really poor from them."Derry did it last year because they recognise it’s hard winning leagues.

You have to show up every day, every week, and the least you can do is give someone a guard of honour. Derry showed us that respect last year."Their manager’s decision was really poor, awful," added Bradley."They want to create a siege mentality, supposedly.
