Bohs: The Down-to-Earth Guys Who Conquered Irish Football




Every football fan in Ireland has a favorite "Boh" story.
Whether it's the time they won the league with a team of part-timers or the time they stunned Barcelona in a friendly, Bohs has always been the underdog that never gives up.

Formed in 1890, Bohs is one of the oldest and most successful clubs in Irish football.
They have won the league 11 times, the FAI Cup 8 times, and the League of Ireland Cup 6 times.

But it's not just their trophies that make Bohs special.
It's their spirit and their connection with their fans. Bohs is a club that has always been there for its community.
They were one of the first clubs in Ireland to offer scholarships to young players, and they have always been involved in local charities.

Bohs is a club that everyone can relate to.
They're the working-class club that never gives up, the club that always fights for its community.
They're the club that makes Irish football great.

Here are a few of my favorite Bohs stories:
  • The time they won the league with a team of part-timers.
    In the 1974/75 season, Bohs won the league with a team that was made up mostly of part-time players.
    The team was led by manager Leo Cullen, who was a former player for the club.
    Cullen had a great eye for talent, and he was able to put together a team that was greater than the sum of its parts.
  • The time they stunned Barcelona in a friendly.
    In 1992, Bohs played Barcelona in a friendly match at Dalymount Park.
    Barcelona was the reigning European champions at the time, and they were expected to easily beat Bohs.
    However, Bohs put in a spirited performance and stunned Barcelona with a 2-1 victory.
  • The time they won the FAI Cup final in front of a sell-out crowd.
    In 2000, Bohs won the FAI Cup final in front of a sell-out crowd at Lansdowne Road.
    The game was a thrilling affair, and Bohs eventually won 2-1.
    It was a great day for the club and their fans.
Bohs is more than just a football club.
They are a symbol of the Irish working class. They are a club that has always fought for its community.
They are a club that everyone can relate to.

Bohs is the heart of Irish football.
