Bohemians ground at Dalymount Park
A young supporter received burn injuries as a result of flares being lit in a packed stand during the game at the Bohemians home ground on Dublin’s northside.
The club has now received fines totalling over €3,500 this season alone for pyrotechnic offences at recent away games.
In a statement posted on social media, a spokesperson said it’s a major safety issue and of “ongoing concern” to the club.
Their statement added: “There is also a strong possibility of a ban on our supporters travelling to away games if there are anymore reported pyrotechnic offences this season.
£These fines are unsustainable for our Club and eats into our finances which cannot be tolerated going forward and the safety of our supporters is of paramount concern.”
The club said they wanted to acknowledge and commend the compliance of supporters at home games – with no reported incidents involving pyrotechnics.
“We hope all supporters will continue to comply with the Club and our match night security team.”
