Stephen Bradley: Trip to children's cancer ward would set abusers back

Stephen Bradley believes that the Cork City fans who chanted 'disgusting' songs about his son, should spend the day on a children's cancer ward to gain some perspective on their actions.

The Shamrock Rovers manager was targeted by a small group of supporters in the wake of last Friday’s 1-1 draw with City at Turner’s Cross.

Standing in an area which looks onto the pitch at Turner's Cross, the group chanted songs mocking Bradley's nine-year-old son who has been battling leukaemia.

Gardai are investigating the incident and while Bradley hopes to see them press charges against those responsible, he praised Cork City and the vast majority of their supporter base for their reaction.

Speaking to RTÉ Sport, the Rovers boss said: "A massive thank you to everyone who's reached out to myself and my family with emails, letters, texts and that's from the genuine fans of Cork City.

People all over the country, whether that's been sport or not, have been fantastic and giving us that support. So massive thank you to them. It's definitely helped me and my family get through a difficult few days.

"It’s disgusting, you don't expect to hear anything like that in any walk of life. We all know when you're in sport there's a certain amount of stick that comes with the game but they crossed the line.

"We can't allow them to feel that that's acceptable in any walk of life.

"Thankfully the support and the backlash has being quite severe because these people need to understand that what they've said is unacceptable."

"If those people that said what they said spent the day in St. John's Ward in Crumlin and saw what it's like to have a kid with cancer and to live with it, I'm sure it would really set them back."
