At 30, Keith Ward is now the senior figure in the dressing room, and on the recent European away trips to face Stjarnan of Iceland and Dudelange of Luxembourg, found himself rooming with 16-year-old Jamie Mullins.

Mullins became Bohs’ youngest-ever goalscorer with his league goal against Longford Town, days after making his European debut at the Aviva Stadium in the second leg victory against Stjarnan.
