'''Bohemian Football Club''' ([[Irish language|Irish]]: '''An Cumann Peile Bóihéamach'''),<ref>{{Cite web |title=An Cumann Peile Bóihéamach |url=https://bohemianfc.com/ |access-date=21 March 2025 |website=Bohemian FC}}</ref> more commonly referred to as '''Bohemians''' or '''Bohs''', is an [[Football in the Republic of Ireland|Irish]] professional association football club based in [[Dublin]]. Bohemians compete in the [[League of Ireland Premier Division|Premier Division]] of the [[League of Ireland]]. Bohs are the fourth most successful club in [[League of Ireland]] football history, having won the League of Ireland title 11 times, the [[FAI Cup]] 7 times, the [[League of Ireland Shield]] 6 times and the [[League of Ireland Cup]] 3 times. Prior to the establishment of the [[Football Association of Ireland]] and [[League of Ireland]], Bohemians competed in the [[Irish Football League]] and [[Irish Cup]], which were at the time all-Ireland competitions. During that period they won the [[Irish Cup]] once and finished runners up 5 times. They hold the record for [[Leinster Senior Cup (association football)|Leinster Senior Cup]] wins with 33 cups claimed.

Bohemians were founded by members of Bell's Academy (a Civil Service college), the [[Royal Hibernian Military School]] (a school for orphaned children of members of the British armed forces in Ireland),<ref name="priestley_transcript">{{Cite web |date=29 October 2014 |title=Ciaran Priestley: The Bohemian Football Club |url=https://www.dublincity.ie/library/blog/bohemian-football-club-transcript |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220607184142/https://www.dublincity.ie/library/blog/bohemian-football-club-transcript |archive-date=7 June 2022 |access-date=31 July 2022}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news |title=Frank McNally: The Pisser Dignam's field |url=https://www.irishtimes.com/opinion/frank-mcnally-the-pisser-dignam-s-field-1.2279405 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220812092444/https://www.irishtimes.com/opinion/frank-mcnally-the-pisser-dignam-s-field-1.2279405 |archive-date=12 August 2022 |access-date=7 February 2021 |newspaper=[[The Irish Times]]}}</ref> medical students and others, on 6 September 1890 in the [[Phoenix Park]] Gate Lodge beside the North Circular Road entrance and played its first games in the Park's Polo Grounds. They were one of the founding members of the League of Ireland in 1921, after their withdrawal from the [[Irish Football League]]. They established themselves as a major force within the first 15 years of the League of Ireland, winning 5 league titles, 2 FAI Cups and 4 Shields, but struggled for decades after that, largely due to their strict amateur status, going 34 seasons without winning a major trophy. 

Bohemians dropped their amateur ethos in 1969 and proceeded to win 2 League titles, 2 FAI Cups, and 2 League cups during the season 1970s. They suffered a further decline throughout the 1980s and most of the 1990s before claiming League and Cup doubles in [[League of Ireland 2000–01|2001]] and [[League of Ireland 2008|2008]], alongside the [[League of Ireland 2002–03|2003]] and most recently [[League of Ireland 2009|2009]] title wins. They are the only club to have won all four domestic trophy 'doubles' available in Irish football history (League and FAI Cup, League and Shield, League and Dublin City Cup, and League and League Cup).

Bohemians play their home matches at [[Dalymount Park]] in [[Phibsborough]] on the [[Northside Dublin|northside]] of Dublin. They are owned 100% by the members of the club. Their club colours are red and black, which they adopted at the 4th AGM in October 1893.{{Citation needed|date=September 2025}} Bohemians supporters often refer to their club by a number of nicknames including Bohs, The Gypsies and Dublin's Originals, and provide [[Bohemians vs Shamrock Rovers|one half of a bitter rivalry]] with [[Southside Dublin|southside]] club, [[Shamrock Rovers F.C.|Shamrock Rovers]].

It was a founding member of the [[League of Ireland]] in 1921, and it is one of only two clubs to have been members of the League of Ireland since its inception (the other being [[Shelbourne F.C.|Shelbourne]]), and it is the only club to have been ever-present in the top division of the league. In its first season it finished second in the league, just two points behind [[St James Gate F.C.|St. James Gate]]. The club won its first league title in 1924. In [[1927–28 League of Ireland|1928]] the club won its second league title and completed a double that season by winning its first [[FAI Cup]] also.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Farrell |first=Gerry |date=7 July 2016 |title=Bohemians and Brothers in Arms – The Robinsons |url=https://bohemianfc.com/?page_id=10275&preview=true |access-date=2025-09-24 |website=Bohemian FC}}</ref> The club was one of the major forces in the early years of the league, going on to win another three league titles and another FAI Cup in the next eight seasons.

After this success the club began to struggle, often finishing at the foot of the league and rarely mounting a title challenge, largely because of an inability to attract or keep top players due to its strict amateur status, which had been a fundamental part of the club since its formation.  The club went 34 seasons without winning a major trophy.  In 1969 the club ended its amateur status, and the first player to sign professional terms was [[Tony O'Connell]], who signed on 11 March 1969.

The club then went on to win two league titles, two FAI Cups and two league cups in the 1970s, more trophies than any other club that decade. In 1970 the club entered European competition for the first time where it was beaten in the first qualifying round of the [[European Cup Winners' Cup]] (see below). The club went through another trophy-less spell after its 1979 league cup victory, which was not broken until the club won its fifth FAI Cup in 1992.  

It was not until 2001 that it regained the league title, also winning the FAI Cup that season to complete its second double. After adding another league title in 2003, Bohemians triumphed once again in 2008, under [[Pat Fenlon]], winning the double of both the league for the tenth time with four league games still to play,<ref>{{Cite news |date=2008-10-11 |title=Jubilant scenes as Bohemians clinch their 10th title |url=http://www.irishtimes.com/newspaper/sport/2008/1011/1223676792801.html |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081120061447/http://www.irishtimes.com/newspaper/sport/2008/1011/1223676792801.html |archive-date=20 November 2008 |access-date=2009-07-01 |newspaper=[[The Irish Times]]}}</ref> and the FAI cup in a penalty shoot-out.<ref>{{Cite news |date=2008-11-24 |title=Bohemians prevail in a cracker |url=http://www.irishtimes.com/newspaper/sport/2008/1124/1227293466584.html |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121023063906/http://www.irishtimes.com/newspaper/sport/2008/1124/1227293466584.html |archive-date=23 October 2012 |access-date=2009-07-01 |newspaper=[[The Irish Times]]}}</ref>
In September 2009, Bohemians claimed the [[2009 League of Ireland Cup|League Cup]] for the third time in the club's history with a 3–1 win over [[Waterford United F.C.|Waterford United]] in the final.<ref>{{Cite news |date=2009-09-02 |title=Bohemians 3–1 Waterford United |url=http://www.rte.ie/sport/soccer/2009/0926/bohemians_waterford.html |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090929232307/http://www.rte.ie/sport/soccer/2009/0926/bohemians_waterford.html |archive-date=29 September 2009 |access-date=2009-09-28 |work=[[RTÉ Sport]]}}</ref>

On 6 November 2009, Bohemians retained the [[2009 League of Ireland Premier Division|title]] after a 1–1 draw against [[Bray Wanderers A.F.C.|Bray Wanderers]].<ref>{{Cite news |date=2009-11-06 |title=Bohemians crowned league champions |url=http://www.rte.ie/sport/soccer/2009/1106/bray_bohemians.html |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20091109223123/http://www.rte.ie/sport/soccer/2009/1106/bray_bohemians.html |archive-date=9 November 2009 |access-date=2009-11-09 |work=RTÉ Sport}}</ref> They were already assured of the league title before the final round of matches as they held a three-point lead and 16-goal difference advantage over their nearest rivals [[Shamrock Rovers F.C.|Shamrock Rovers]].

==Stadiums==

Bohemians' first home ground was the Polo Grounds in the [[Phoenix Park]]. Goal posts and other equipment were kept at the park's gate lodge on [[North Circular Road, Dublin|North Circular Road]] which also doubled as a dressing room.{{sfnp|Reid|1976|pp=9,11}} They remained there until the 1893–94 season when they obtained a private ground on Jones Road now known as [[Croke Park]], the headquarters of the [[Gaelic Athletic Association]].<ref name="buzz_peoplesclub">{{Cite web |last=Byrne |first=Ruairi Scott |date=2021-08-16 |title=Bohemians: The fall and rise of the 'people's club' |url=https://www.buzz.ie/sport/soccer/bohemians-phibsborough-dublin-football-club-24764226 |access-date=2025-08-25 |website=Buzz.ie |language=en}}</ref> The space then took in the ground previously occupied by the [[Old Belvedere]] playing pitches and now occupied by the Cusack Stand. For the first time it was possible for the club to build up some sort of finances, since a charge for admission was made at all important home matches.

They moved to a new home at Whitehall Farm, [[Glasnevin]], in time for the start of the 1895–96 season but in those days, the area was out of the way and without public transport so the Bohemian committee continued to look for a new home ground. 

===Dalymount Park===

Their search came to an end when they moved to [[Dalymount Park]] which was officially opened on 7 September 1901.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Burke |first=Stephen |title=From Dancing Policemen to Dancing in the Floodlights – Building Dalymount 1901 to 2021 |url=https://dorothysmith.ie/from-dancing-policemen-to-dancing-in-the-floodlights-by-stephen-burke/ |access-date=2025-08-30 |website=Dorothy Smith |language=en-GB}}</ref> The first match was played between Bohemians and [[Shelbourne F.C.]] and a crowd of 3,000 saw a 4–2 victory for Bohs.<ref name="freemans_1901">{{Cite news |date=9 September 1901 |title=Opening of the Season.

==European record==
Although they did not make their first appearance in European competition until 1970, they have, like all Irish clubs, found the going tough in Europe, but they have had some famous successes too. Their finest hour came when they eliminated [[Scottish Premier League]] club (and former [[Cup Winners' Cup]] and [[European Super Cup]] champions) [[Aberdeen F.C.|Aberdeen]] from the [[UEFA Cup]] in August 2000. That triumph was set up by a dramatic 2–1 victory away from home, in which Bohs scored 2 late goals to overturn a 1–0 deficit.<ref>{{Cite news |title=Soccer: Bohs embarrass Aberdeen in UEFA Cup |url=http://www.rte.ie/sport/2000/0810/soccer1.html |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180716223816/https://www.rte.ie/sport/soccer/2000/0810/150758-soccer1/ |archive-date=16 July 2018 |access-date=8 November 2018 |work=[[RTÉ.ie]]}}</ref> That was the first time an Irish club defeated British opposition away from home in European competition. Other notable results include wins against [[Rangers F.C.|Rangers]] and [[1. FC Kaiserslautern|Kaiserslautern]] (away) and draws against [[Rangers F.C.|Rangers]], [[Newcastle United F.C.|Newcastle United]], [[Sporting Clube de Portugal|Sporting CP]], [[Dundee United F.C.|Dundee United]] (away) and [[Aberdeen F.C.|Aberdeen]]. In all, they have beaten a total of 11 different teams, from 9 countries ([[Denmark]], [[Cyprus]], [[Scotland]], [[Germany]], [[Estonia]], [[Belarus]], [[Belgium]], [[Wales]] and [[Latvia]]). Bohs bowed out of the 2008 [[Intertoto Cup]] on away goals to Latvian side [[FK Riga]] despite winning the second leg 2–1. Earlier in that campaign they recorded their biggest single leg (5–1) and aggregate (9–3) wins in Europe (against [[Welsh Premier League]] club [[Rhyl F.C.|Rhyl]]).

Bohemians started their [[2009–10 UEFA Champions League qualifying phase and play-off round|2009–10 UEFA Champions League campaign]] away to [[Austrian Bundesliga]] champions [[FC Red Bull Salzburg|Red Bull Salzburg]] on 16 July 2009 with a 1–1 draw in [[Salzburg]].<ref>{{Cite news |date=2009-07-16 |title=Ndo grabs precious away goal |url=http://www.irishtimes.com/newspaper/sport/2009/0716/1224250763063.html |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121021064730/http://www.irishtimes.com/newspaper/sport/2009/0716/1224250763063.html |archive-date=21 October 2012 |access-date=2009-07-23 |newspaper=[[The Irish Times]]}}</ref>

After retaining the league title in 2009, Bohs entered the Champions League again in [[2010–11 UEFA Champions League qualifying phase and play-off round|2010–11]].

After a nearly a decade away from continental competition, Bohs faced Hungarian opposition in the form of [[Fehérvár FC|Fehérvár]] in the [[2020-2021 UEFA Europa League]] qualifiers. The gypsies narrowly missed out by virtue of a penalty shoot-out loss, decided after a solitary one-legged affair was played, due to the [[Coronavirus pandemic]]. Bohs entered the inaugural [[2021–22 UEFA Europa Conference League|Europa Conference League]] the year after and consecutively sold out their home matches at Dublin's [[Aviva Stadium]] in matches with [[Stjarnan FC]] and [[F91 Dudelange]], both home legs ending with famous 3-0 victories.

"Bohs" 2021 European campaign came to end in Thessalonika after defeat to PAOK, when they lost the 3–2 on aggregate, following a heroic win in the first leg at the Aviva Stadium on 3 August, when Scottish winger Ali Coote scored a brace in what has to rank as one of the best ever wins by an Irish team in Europe.<ref>{{Cite web |author=Donnelly, Dave |date=4 August 2021 |title=Bohemians claim stunning first leg victory against PAOK |url=https://www.rte.ie/sport/soccer/2021/0803/1238847-bohs-claim-stunning-first-leg-victory-against-paok/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230818232014/https://www.rte.ie/sport/soccer/2021/0803/1238847-bohs-claim-stunning-first-leg-victory-against-paok/ |archive-date=18 August 2023 |access-date=18 August 2023 |website=RTE}}</ref> The Greek side had just signed ex Dortmund and Manchester United star Shinji Kagawa and had a budget of circa €75M compared to the Bohemian's estimated €750,000.<ref>{{Cite web |author=Dempsey, Andrew |date=4 August 2021 |title=Brilliant Bohs Stun Greek Giants PAOK As The Aviva Rocks To Its Core |url=https://www.balls.ie/football/brilliant-bohemians-stun-greek-giants-paok-478965 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230818232015/https://www.balls.ie/football/brilliant-bohemians-stun-greek-giants-paok-478965 |archive-date=18 August 2023 |access-date=18 August 2023 |website=Balls}}</ref> On 12 August the Irish team bowed out of the Europa Conference League Qualification<ref>{{Cite web |date=12 August 2021 |title=Bohemians' brilliant European run comes to an end after PAOK prevail in Greece |url=https://www.the42.ie/bohemians-paok-report-5521536-Aug2021/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230818232014/https://www.the42.ie/bohemians-paok-report-5521536-Aug2021/ |archive-date=18 August 2023 |access-date=18 August 2023 |website=[[The42]]}}</ref> campaign after their fans were denied access to the stadium amid protests from the home fans about Covid restrictions, following a 2–0 defeat on the night in a tense Thessalonika atmosphere.

==Club culture==
[[File:Bohemian FC banners, August 2013.jpg|thumb|upright=1.3|Bohemian supporters in 2013 waving banners, including one bearing the left-wing [[No pasarán]] slogan.]]
Since the 2010s, Bohemians have adopted a [[left-wing]] political identity, integrating this into their branding, public messaging, and community work. Under the leadership of Chief Operating Officer Daniel Lambert, the club has associated itself with causes such as [[Palestinian nationalism]] and [[anti-racism]] as well as LGBT, refugee and homelessness advocacy.<ref name="The Phoenix June 2025"/><ref>{{cite magazine |last=Clark |first=Stuart |date=5 March 2018 |title=Flares and flag-waving in the Jodi Stand: Bohemian’s Daniel Lambert |url=https://www.hotpress.com/lifestyle-sports/flares-and-flag-waving-in-the-jodi-stand-bohemians-daniel-lambert-21855647 |magazine=[[Hot Press]] |location= |publisher= |access-date=16 June 2025}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |last=Libreri |first=Samantha |date=3 March 2025 |title=Bohs deliver programme combating anti-immigrant sentiment |url=https://www.rte.ie/news/dublin/2025/0303/1499845-bohemians-diversity/ |work=[[RTÉ News]] |location= |publisher= |access-date=16 June 2025}}</ref><ref>{{cite magazine |last=Cannon |first=Tiernan |date=13 May 2025 |title=Bohemian FC is more than a football club |url=https://www.huckmag.com/article/bohemian-fc-more-than-football-club-activism-palestine-climate |magazine=[[Huck (magazine)|Huck]] |location= |publisher= |access-date=16 June 2025}}</ref> These themes have appeared on club merchandise and in formal partnerships with organisations including [[Focus Ireland]] and [[Amnesty International]].

This approach draws direct inspiration from [[FC St Pauli]] in Germany, a club known for its left-wing political stance and [[anti-fascist]] identity.<ref name="The Phoenix June 2025"/> Bohemians has incorporated similar elements into its culture, including symbolic imagery and public statements that reflect socialist or anti-establishment viewpoints. The club offices in Phibsborough contain political items such as a statue of [[Lenin]] and leftist literature, reinforcing the ideological branding.<ref name="The Phoenix June 2025"/>

The club’s political stance has attracted both support and criticism. Supporters of the approach argue it strengthens community ties and offers a distinct identity in Irish football. Critics such as former manager [[Roddy Collins]] have stated they feel that Bohemians has become more focused on politics than on-the-pitch success.<ref>{{cite web |author=[[Roddy Collins]] |date=5 September 2022 |title=Roddy Collins: Bohs have become too political and new manager faces tough task |url=https://www.buzz.ie/sport/sport-opinion/bohemians-too-political-roddy-collins-27909853 |website=Buzz.ie |location= |publisher= |access-date=13 June 2025}}</ref> 

===Supporters and rivalries===
{{Main|Bohemians vs Shamrock Rovers}}
Bohs' fan base is mainly drawn from the [[Northside Dublin|northside]] of Dublin and their supporters share a bitter rivalry with Southside club, [[Shamrock Rovers F.C.|Shamrock Rovers]]. However, the club has many fans from other parts of the city, across Ireland and worldwide. The club shares a [[Derbies in the League of Ireland#Capital Derbies|rivalry]] with their Northside neighbours [[Shelbourne F.C.|Shelbourne]] largely because of geographical proximity as both clubs are now located roughly just 1 mile apart, and also because they featured prominently in the early days of Dublin football, when nationwide football was still based around [[Belfast]]. Shelbourne and Bohs were often featured in the Belfast-centered [[Irish Football League]] before partition and the rivalry was kept on-off after they formed the new Irish Free State league with six other clubs.

During 2006, a number of Bohemians fans formed an [[Ultras|ultra]] group in an effort to create a more interesting atmosphere at home games. Named The Notorious Boo-Boys, the group bought flags and organised [[Tifo|displays]] during games to lift the atmosphere of the home of Irish football [[Dalymount Park]].<ref>[http://www.bohemians.ie/index.php/supporters/boo-boys-site.htm Notorious Boo-Boys launch site] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080130075038/http://www.bohemians.ie/index.php/supporters/boo-boys-site.htm |date=30 January 2008 }}, ''Bohemian F.C.
