HOUSE ABOUT THAT FOR A RESULT!

Contract at Bohs and keys to a new pad caps great week for Moore

HOME is where the heart is for new Bohemians recruit Karl Moore – in more ways than one.

The versatile winger, who also played as a left-back for Bray Wanderers last season, is back for a second spell with the Gypsies.

The deal was announced on Thursday night and Moore was celebrating on the double as he also got the keys to his first house that same day.

With Christmas around the corner, it has been a whirlwind week for the

Dubliner and his girlfriend Sinead.

Moore told Mirror

Sport: “I agreed the move with Bohs a while ago but when I went for the mortgage, it said Bray Wanderers on a lot of the paperwork.

“So I had to sort that and we delayed an announcement until I got the keys to the new house.”

Moore has bought in Balgriffin in north county Dublin which is handy as his day job is nearby and it is also a quick spin to Bohs training. “Myself and Sinead have been saving for a good while and we’re delighted to get it over the line before Christmas.

“It has all come together nicely with the furniture delivery – all the main stuff is in so we’ll be settled for Christmas which is brilliant.

“You see the house being built over the months, but it was a different feeling on Thursday turning the key and stepping inside knowing it’s finally yours.”

On the pitch, Moore insists Bohs feels like a home from home and he cannot wait for his second spell at Dalymount

He spent four seasons with the Gypsies before joining Bray in 2016.

“Everyone knows it’s a great club to play for - I knew it at the time and it probably hit me even harder when I wasn’t there,” he said.

“It’s just different to other clubs. I have the utmost respect for Bray, but I missed Bohs when I was gone and I’m delighted to get a second chance.”

Manager Keith Long is working wonders on a shoestring budget and Moore reckons that fighting spirit is now part of the club’s DNA.

He added: “Bohs were very successful until the financial trouble hit. But people tipped them to go down then and they bounced back.

“They’re a good fighting club. They thrive off it and were rejuvenated again last year as the lads who came in really bought into the club.

“You could tell playing against them that Keith and Trevor Croly are doing great things.”
