FK Bohemians Prague (Czech: FK Bohemians Praha), formerly known as FC Střížkov Praha 9, was a football club from Střížkov, Prague, Czech Republic. The club won the Bohemian Football League in the 2006–2007 season and was promoted to the Second League, where it appeared in the 2007–2008 season. The club won the Second League that season and was promoted to the Czech First League (top flight), where it competed in the 2008–2009 and 2009–2010 seasons. In 2010 the club was relegated from Czech First League. In 2011 the club won the Bohemian Football League again and was promoted to the Czech 2. Liga. In June 2011 the club appointed SK Strakonice 1908 coach František Barát as manager, replacing coach Jaromír Jindráček.[1]

After losing the battle over the naming rights, their owner Karel Kapr took the decision to disband the mens side of the club. Most of the players have been transferred to SK Třeboradice.[2] The club will continue with an adult women's team and junior male and female teams.

History

The old name of the club was FC Střížkov Praha 9. The club bought the logo of the traditional team Bohemians Prague in 2005 after the old Bohemians Prague were relegated from Second League to the Bohemian Football League. In 2010 the Prague City Court ruled that the club cannot use the name Bohemians, as it has no connection with traditional Bohemians Prague.[3]

In 2010, Bohemians were deducted 20 points and fined 6 million CZK because they refused to play a league fixture against Bohemians 1905 and accused SK Sigma Olomouc of bribery without presenting evidence[4] and the club was relegated from the Czech First League. In June 2010 the club was not given a license by the football association to play the Second League as the club's officials refused to pay their fine, thus it was automatically relegated to the Bohemian Football League (third-level league).[5] The following season, 2010–2011, the club won the Bohemian Football League and returned to professional football in the Czech 2. Liga.

In September 2012 a Czech court ruled that the club must not continue to use the name Bohemians after 31 January 2013.[6] However in December 2012, the club was granted the right to appeal against the decision, thus protracting the process yet further.[7]

The club was relegated to the third tier football league, the Bohemian Football League, in 2014 after finishing 15th in the National Football League. They won the division in their first season, but refused the promotion back to the National Football League. On 23 June 2015, the club announced that their leadership had decided to enter the 5th division of Czech football pyramid for the 2015–16 season.[8]

Relation to Bohemians 1905

See also: Bohemians 1905

In 1993, Bohemians 1905 broke away from the TJ Bohemians Praha sports franchise and became a separate legal entity. The club functioned normally until financial troubles came up and the club nearly collapsed in 2005. TJ Bohemians took advantage of the situation and rented out the Bohemians logo to FC Střížkov Praha 9, a lowly team in the third tier of Czech football. TJ were able to pour money into the small club and help them rise to the first division. However, fans remained loyal to the Bohemians 1905 team, and helped the large club to recover.

Stadium

Main article: Stadion SK Prosek

In the 2008–09 Czech First League, Bohemians played its home matches at FK Viktoria Stadion, due to its own stadium in Horní Počernice not meeting league standards.[9]

In the 2009–10 Czech First League, Bohemians was forced to move again due to the league's requirements for under-soil heating and played its home matches at Stadion Evžena Rošického.[10]

In the 2011–12 Czech 2. Liga, after reconstruction work on the ground, Bohemians returned to their home stadium in Střížkov.[11]
