Bradley urges fans to come out in force

Connacht have not had a home game since the opening day win over Newport Gwent Dragons in September.

Since then Connacht have been on their travels to Llanelli, Glasgow and Cardiff, but are now back in action in the Sportsground on Friday evening.
Coach Michael Bradley says that a big turnout from Connacht fans could be the difference between victory and defeat on Friday.

"We have seen in our three away matches how big a boost the home sides got from their own fans and we would hope to get the same boost from Connacht supporters.

"There has been a huge increase in the level of support for Connacht in the past few years and this is a major boost for the players.

"Hopefully, that support will come out on Friday evening, especially as we have been away for three games in a row," said Bradley.
