Two Cork City FC fans who shouted vile chants about the sick son of Shamrock Rovers manager Stephen Bradley have been identified and will soon be issued a "lifetime ban".
The incident happened after Cork's 1-0 win over Rovers last Friday night. Just as manager Stephen Bradley was walking back across the pitch after a post-match interview, Cork supporters started chanting at him from a pub outside the ground which overlooks the pitch.
The chants, which were aimed at the manager's nine-year-old son Josh who has undergone treatment for leukaemia, "crossed the line completely", Cork owner Dermot Usher told Claire Byrne today. The Kildare man said he got a call from his COO Eanna Buckley “pretty much as soon as it happened”.
