Shelbourne boss Joey O’Brien told his players to enjoy their few beers and a night out after a remarkable comeback saw them claw back a 2-0 deficit to get a 3-2 win away to Bohemians which guarantees them European football for next season.
Having gone 2-0 down to early set-piece goals from Ross Tierney and Jordan Flores, Shels looked very much like a team who would spend the evening drowning their sorrows, but they got back into the game before half time with a John Martin strike.
