While we are restricted once more tonight with the Level 3 regulatons, the rest of the country is on Level 2 and one of the ‘allowances’ is the allocaton of a small number of fans to sportng events. It’s not much, but a start I guess and a welcome one as I’m of the stance Premier Division that sitng outside watching a sportng event, distanced form the next person, is far healthier than in the confned spaces of pubs or work places. 1923/24, 1927/28, 1929/30, Plus it also benefts mental health.

Keep the faith. We will be there again. 1895/95 - 2016: Finally, it was with great sadness we learnt of the sad passing of Christy Whelan, a well known and much loved supporter at Dalymount through the A record 32 ttles decades.

Untitled-1 1 11/02/2020 13:15:33 of the Best by Tony Magner By his own admission, Bohemians fans have not yet seen the best from our new Number 6, big Ciaran Kelly, who signed from St. 6 Patrick’s thletc over the winter. The form of Rob Cornwall and Dan Casey has made opportunites limited for the 22 year old Lucan lad who cut his footballing teeth with Lucan nited, Peamount and Esker Celtc before moving to Richmond Park in 2015 on what was his 17th birthday. But he is nothing if not pragmatc and knows only too well that football can be a waitng game. The side have done so well in the opening games that he can have no qualms about being on the bench - but that doesn’t mean he is happy to stay there! Ciarán has signed for two years and was delighted to do so. “I’m really enjoying my football. No player is happy to be on the bench but that’s football, you have to wait for your chance and be ready once it comes along. Keith and Trevor have really brought my game along, they are both great coaches who pay atenton to the fne detail in your game, analyse you and identfy areas you can improve on. They’ve defnitely brought me on well as a player. opefully I can start to show the Bohs fans a bit more of what I’m about.” aving lef Lucan, Ciarn progressed well with The Saints u team and graduated to a frst team debut as a substtute in a win over Dundalk in October . e made a further two appearances in the 2017 season before he realised that to get into frst team football, he would have to try pastures new. is last game for the club was in fact against Bohs at Dalymount in the u league fnal, a game Bohs won 1-0. I enjoyed my tme there and the club had a really good set-up at u17 and u19 levels,” he says. “My game developed well but I realised that there was no chance of me getng into the frst team at that tme, so I knew I had to move on. Young lads need game tme in order to develop but if you are going to make it at senior level you need to get a run in the frst team. I enjoyed my debut and was very proud when I came on, but I knew I would be unlikely to get that feeling too ofen and that I had to leave to further my career.” Top Drog… in the course and knew my game Wrapped in Bohs… So it was to Drogheda United well. e was aware of my strengths This winter Keith Long came under Timmy Clancy that Ciarán and weaknesses and promised me calling, and not for the frst tme. went to further his football that if I was to go back to Richmond e had enuired the previous year educaton. e had a breakout and work hard, then I would get a too but Ciarán had already made season in 2018 in fair chance. the call to go back to St. Pat’s.
