Stephen Bradley says that an away day win in the Azores for his Shamrock Rovers side capped the “best week of his life” after his son Josh received the all-clear from cancer.
The Rovers boss stressed that his players still have work to do in Tallaght next Thursday if they are to become the first Irish team to qualify for European league phase football without availing of the champions route – but Bradley said that the trauma that he has experienced off the park across the last three years has taught him to enjoy the good days.
