Bohemians bounced back to the top of the Eircom Premier Division after holding St Patrick’s Athletic to a 1-1 draw at Richmond Park tonight.

Top marksman Glenn Crowe gave the Gypsies the lead on 28 minutes when he latched onto a Trevor Molloy through ball only for St Pat’s veteran Paul Osam to equalise for the home-side on the stroke of half-time.

St Pat’s upped the tempo after the interval but failed to find the goal to reflect their percentage possession.
