Bradley hails Connacht’s new statement of intent

Michael Bradley spent most of his seven years at the Sportsground not just wondering if he would be in a job at the end of the season, but rather whether the Connacht team he was coaching would still be in existence.

But the former Irish captain battled on and having last weekend watched his Zebre side pipped by Connacht in Parma, takes great pride and pleasure in seeing where his former team now sits.
