Bohemians admit 'error' over social media training video

Bohemians have admitted to an 'error' after footage circulated on social media of two small groups of the clubs’ players training at a public park in Dublin.

In a statement, Bohemians FC said that players were training in groups of three, with one coach, since groups of four are allowed exercise under the current phase of the government plan. Pictured: Bohemians home ground, Dalymount Park, Dublin

Bohemians have confirmed they followed government, rather than FAI, advice in allowing players return to training in small groups.

Under the FAI’s roadmap for a safer return to football unveiled last month amid the easing of lockdown from Covid-19, June 8 was the date set allowing the four League of Ireland clubs participating in European competition to commence training.
