Former Bohemians manager Pat Fenlon has been appointed as the club's new director of football.Fenlon, who also made 88 appearances for the Dublin club between 1991 and '94, arrives from Irish League club Linfield where he had been serving as general manager since 2018.
David Graham, former head of communications for Scottish club Rangers, will replace Fenlon at the Belfast club.His managerial spell at the club from 2008 to 2011 was an ultra successful one as the Bohs won back-to-back league titles, the FAI Cup, the EA Sports Cup and the Setanta Cup.Since departing to take charge of Scottish side Hibernian in 2011, Fenlon has served as first-team manager of Shamrock Rovers and director of football at Waterford, who last month confirmed former Republic of Ireland striker Jonathan Walters as their new technical director."I am absolutely delighted to be returning to the club and I am really looking forward to the challenge ahead.
I have some really special memories from my previous spells at the club and I want to help make new ones," Fenlon said."It is a really exciting time to be getting back involved with Bohs.
There has been a lot of good work done rebuilding the club over the last decade and you can see how much the club has grown in several areas in recent years."I feel the foundations are strong, there is a great atmosphere and affiliation around the club, and I believe that we have an opportunity to build on all of that, be stronger again, and bring further success to the club."It will be my job to oversee the football operations of the club alongside the board of directors to help get Bohs where we all want to be."I am looking forward to working closely with the board, Declan Devine and the men’s team, Seán Byrne
