The Hoops have appealed the decision made by the FAI’s Independent Disciplinary Committee decision to reject Rovers’ protest relating to Dawson Devoy’s eligibility in the FAI Cup fixture that Bohs won 1-0 last month.

The club issued a statement on Wednesday:

Shamrock Rovers F.C. confirm that it has appealed the decision of FAI Disciplinary Committee in relation to Sports Direct Men's FAI Cup tie against Bohemian F.C.

The appeal, as with the original protest, will focus on several aspects, most notably the statutory basis and decision-making process for determining player eligibility for the game.

The club will make no further comment on the process at this time.

Bohemians travel to Kerry this Sunday for the third round.
