Coleraine striker,Eroin Bradley has been given six-match suspension by the Irish FA for urinating on the pitch thereby behaving in a most inappropriate manner. The incident occurred during the Irish Cup semi-final tie between Coleraine and Ballymena at the Windsor Park recently.

Bradley was found guilty of misconduct in respect of a breach of Article 17 of the Irish FA’s Articles of Association, which relates to bringing the game into disrepute. According to the Irish FA protocols, the striker engaged in ethical breaches and misconduct which earned him a suspension from six matches .

Recall that Bradley had  put Coleraine ahead from a free- kick, before substitute Kenny Kane equalised for Ballymena late in the game. The game however ended 1-1 at regulation time and neither side scored in extra-time. Ballymena went on to win the game on penalty shootout.
