Fri 11 Nov 2002Bohemians lifted by high-flying CroweDerry City ... 0 Bohemians ... 3 Bohemians extended their lead at the top of the Premier Division to 11 points following an excellent display against Derry City at the Brandywell last night. And a major influence on this victory was the surprise inclusion of striker Glen Crowe, who made his international debut for the Republic Ireland in Athens 24 hours earlier.Indeed it was Crowe who sent Bohemians on their way with a 36-minute penalty. With Derry under pressure, a Colin Hawkins header crashed off the crossbar before Paddy McLaughlin was adjudged to have handled inside the area.
