Cork City FC reacted with immediate anger and disappointment, after chants about Mr Bradley's son, who has leukaemia.

The club says investigations "by the relevant authorities" are continuing - and it has thanked fans who've shown support to Stephen Bradley.

After the 1-0 defeat to Cork, Bradley said: “It’s disgusting. I’m going to put in a report to the police. Singing about my son ... You take stick. As a football person, that comes with it. That’s your job and that’s fine.
