Bohs boss welcomes return of Keegan

BOHEMIANS manager Stephen Kenny yesterday welcomed the return of centre-forward Paul Keegan as the runaway league leaders attempt to arrest a 'mini-slump' in fortunes against Shelbourne at Dalymount Park tonight.

Keegan is available for his first start in three matches for a game that will kick-off at 8.10pm to facilitate a live broadcast on TV3.

Bohs failed to win any of their last three matches against Shamrock Rovers, Cork City and St. Patrick's Athletic and in a season when their consistency has been exemplary this represents a slump in form.
